TWEET FIGHTING MAN: PJTV producer Owen Brennan gets in a twitter-fight with Keith Olbermann. Brennan emails:

I got in a very odd twitter fight with @KeithOlbermann today … went a few rounds too.

The tweet that started it all: “@KeithOlbermann Congrats on getting nearly 50,000 viewers! Er, I mean “followers,” but what’s the difference these days?”

And it just so happened to be a perfect promotional moment.

We’d just put up Kruiser’s latest … which has one of the most uncomfortable moments I’ve ever seen on cable news with four people on the Morning Joe team hoping the moment passes without anybody saying the dreaded words, “Keith Olbermann.”

I don’t have a scar on my head from tweeting Keith, but I’ve got an amusing twitter stream now. While Jon Stewart is picking a fight with Fox News, Keith Olbermann is fighting with PJTV.

Anybody who knows anything about media fights know that you only fight above your weight, which is why Olbermann is left to fight us.

Heh.
