Former Countdown host Keith Olbermann followed his speech at Tuesday’s “An Evening with Keith Olbermann” with a 42-minute Q&A session at Cornelll University’s Bailey Hall. That’s a long time to watch, so we’ve run down some highlights, including a predictable duality in the way he treated one eloquent conservative questioner, versus a nervously verbose member of his liberal choir. That miniature study of human nature, and the rest of the highlights, coming up on Tick-off™.

As we mentioned earlier, Olbermann did eventually make peace with another conservative member of his audience, but early in the session, he wasn’t so kind. A young man politely asked Olbermann why he favors the “conservatives as stupid” drumbeat to a more substantive dialog, to which Olbermann essentially replied, “You’re dumb!”
