Olbermann handed Asman, Yost "Worst Person" bronze for claiming journalists won't report heroism while covering Iraq

On MSNBC's Countdown, host Keith Olbermann awarded third place in his nightly "Worst Person in the World" awards to Fox News host David Asman and American Spectator writer Mark Yost for comments they made on Fox News' Your World with Neil Cavuto. Asman stated that journalists covering the Iraq war are "not going to report on a lot of heroism." In response, Yost suggested that reporters are "somewhat embarrassed by people or feel lesser of themselves by people who do incredibly heroic things." Olbermann remarked: "That's right, boys. That's why the media covered up all the heroism on Flight 93." Read more
