Olbermann chided Brown for mistakenly claiming that the last time the same party controlled the White House, the Senate and the House was under Jimmy Carter, reports the Huffington Post.

“The talking point got out enough that the anchor of another news broadcast at this hour reported yesterday that last time it happened it,” — and here Olbermann turned on his Brown impression — “didn’t go so well, and people who have been worried about the possibility of one party controlling the White House and Congress. ‘The last president to do that, of course, was Jimmy Carter.’ Swing and a miss. Her colleague tried to correct her. ‘Bill Clinton.’ Swing and another miss. Correct answer: George W. Bush, that current guy. Early 2001 and again from 2003-2006.”

Keith Olbermann scores a major feature story in this week’s New Yorker.

Among the many highlights is his entertaining battle with Fox’s Bill O’Reilly of The O’Reilly Factor.

From Olbermann’s desk at MSNBC, he can see Fox News’ headquarters - where he used to work.

“Sometimes I imagine that I hear a howl coming from there,” Olbermann told the New Yorker.

“I have been accused of having an obsession with him. I am a minor-leaguer compared to his obsession with me.”

The feud has attracted so many viewers to Olbermann’s Countdown show that he admits, “I really do owe him [O'Reilly] a percentage of my salary.”
