At best, Olbermann and his ilk will be a footnote in history, right along side William Daprato, Frank Zaremba and Ricardo Subo.

point 1 - I do. Its a great starting point to get reliable and reputable sources on subjects if you have little to no experience or knowledge prior. If you look in the references or further reading sections there is a list of publications, often peer-reviewed (if scientific or academic) that will get the ball rolling. From there, digest the sources and go to their reference pages and do the same - typical academic research.
Point 2 - I agree. The only ones that seem to make a mark are comedians. Political commentators are dime a dozen.
