How many KO viewers have you personally recruited? And does anyone know how many |
|
viewers turn off MSBNBC as soon as Keith signs off? (I know I do) And I've personally gotten 3 people to start watching Keith, and they've told 3 friends and so on and so on..... :-)

4. Lots to my great surprise! The way to do it is to send clips to them. |
|
I have been telling my good Democratic friends about Keith and could never get them to watch...until I started sending video clips of his show and guess what? They now ask me if I ever watch Keith Olbermann! I love it.
Send clips by e-mail.

5. It's been easy to recruit Keith Olberman viewers |
|
Just show them a youtube video of one of his commentaries on your laptop. They are addicted instantly!

7. Absolutely. I've recruited all my daughters friends (college age) , |
|
who had never heard anyone say anything like Keith does on TV! I just put it on when they're around, and their little, distracted ears picked up on it. Now they watch all the time.

over the past year - none of them even had watched any of MSNBC before and had to hunt down the channel on their cable/dish systems.

Like you, I shut the TV off right after Keith and I send the vids with transcripts to everyone I know, roughly half of whom don't even have cable. I also encourage everyone to forward to people on their list.
Just got off the phone with my dear 80-something aunt, who is the only liberal among her siblings just as I'm the only liberal among mine. We both watch Keith every night and are madly in love with him, so I often call her after a spectacular show. We chatted tonight for a while about how wonderful Keith is for exposing "that son of a bitch" (her name for the insult in the WH).
She may be 80-something, but she's not narrow, bigoted, or slow! :D

13. My s/o was out of the country working for quite a while |
|
Edited on Wed Nov-01-06 10:38 PM by tyedyeto
On the return home, I kept saying how 'he's my new-found hero'. After watching him for over a month now, the s/o thinks he's great!
The s/o has always been a Dem and always watched political shows (Sunday mornings, News Hour, some CNN and MSNBC} but Olbermann never really caught the attention until recently.

14. I've written about KO in my blog. |
|
I know at least 2 people that now watch him occasionally because of my postings about him. Another person doesn't have cable but has watched his Special Comments on YouTube because of what I wrote about him.

We were down on the Outer Banks the night Keith gave his second special commentary. Two other couples and my wife and I were sharing a house and that night I turned it on the TV right after we all had dinner together.
None of them had seen anything like it.
4 new converts right there on the spot.
