Katy Tur's Ego is Looking For Love

Yep that's right bitches. The greatness that is Katy Tur's Ego is up and out of here. Check it: http://www.weather.com/outlook/videos/best-airport-to-find-a-mate-16151?from=search_siteresults<1>. You didn't really expect Katy's Ego to stick around after Keith's Ego hooked her up with not one, but two sweet jobs did you? And stay with him and help him nurse his dying father? What do I look like? Wait, don't answer that. Where was I? Oh yeah, freedom. Sweet freedom. Now Katy Tur's Ego is out on her own and looking for another sugar daddy love. Or whatever. Sure I'll miss those sweet seats at Yankee Stadium but living with Keith Olbermann's Ego? Hell to the no. Katy's Ego doesn't have to do *that* ever again (and by that, I mean Keith's Ego--ha ha). And guys? If you're broke-ass just out of college, you need not apply. I'm looking for rich and influential. Isn't that what love is all about?

Thanks Bunny for the tip.

Witness the greatness that is Katy Tur's Ego

It's Katy Tur's Ego Live and in color straight from Vancounver and the 2010 Winter Olympics. It's just a matter of time before I take over MSNBC bitches! And you know what anchor chair is calling my name? That 8pm time slot. So for now just enjoy this video and imagine how great an entire hour would be with Katy Tur's ego.

Could Life Get Any Better for Keith Olbermann's Ego?

Spring Training is about to begin (and Katy Tur's Ego is over 3,000 miles away in Canada at the Vancouver Olympics). It just does not get any better than that. So life is good for Keith Olbermann's Ego but then again it's always good being the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego.

Keith Olbermann's Ego Presents the Many Talents of Katy Tur

Keith Olbermann's Ego would now like to present to you a photo montage of the many talents of Katy Tur. Too bad she's rapidly aging what with another birthday and all. The Ego of course likes his women to be between the ages of 18-24.

Jenna BUSH Hager on the Today SHOW?

WTF? How did this happen? Dammit Katy Tur's Ego belongs on the Today show--not some presidential spawn who can't read her way out of a paper bag. Do you people realize the sacrifices that Katy Tur has made to make it in this business? I sleep with Keith Olbermann people--haven't I suffered enough? Do you think that The Weather Channel and WNBC are enough for me? I need to be rewarded for my labor people. And Keith Olbermann's ego promised me he'd make me a star. He said he owned MSNBC NBC. A Star dammit, not a supporting character on the stupid weather channel. All I can say is that Mr. Ego better get off his fat butt and get to work. Or Katy's Ego will be very, very displeased. And you know what that means don't you Keith? No sexytime for Mr. Happy until Katy's Ego is happy again.

Sweet! Awesome! Katy Tur Sees A Tornado!

Okay Katy Tur's Ego has seen a tornado now. Can I come home now? Where is Keith's agent my agent? I want a sweet deal just like Katie Couric has. No, wait, I want Katie Couric's job. I mean we have the same name and everything. And I bet Katie Couric has never been hit in the head by a hailstone. And Katy Tur's Ego is much, much, much younger and way cuter. And Katy Tur knows how to use words like sweet and awesome. So agent person. Get busy. Negotiate my new anchor deal immediately. What do you think Keith I'm paying you for? I've paid my dues dammit! Katy Tur's Ego has been out in an old beat up car for almost a month now with sweaty, smelly nerdy guys (who aren't even rich like Keith's Ego is). Not to mention the past two years living with The Ego. I deserved an anchor job for that one alone. So I've been up close and personal with a tornado. Now I'm ready to be a star!

Programming Alert

Alright, listen up you jealous asses out there (yeah, you too Giant Ego of Keith Olbermann)--don't forget to tune in to The Weather Channel every day this week at 7pm to follow the continuing, madcap adventures of the Vortex 2 Tornado Hunters team. Even though we had a day off today. You know it's hard work roaming the country going to museums and seeing tourist attractions, etc. pretending to chase chasing tornadoes and stuff. Sure without the actual tornadoes, this stuff is as boring as watching paint dry but it's still better than reading some stupid baseball blog or something.

More Vacation uhm Job Pics

More pictures from Katy Tur's sweet vacation job coming to you today from Amarillo Texas and the Cadillac Ranch. When they asked Katy Tur's Ego if she wanted to go see a bunch of Old Wrecks, the first thought that came to mind was "But I've already got one of those back home in NYC". Turns out they were talking about old cars. Oh well, Happy Memorial Day from Amarillo Texas and the Cadillac Ranch. Is this a great vacation job or what?

Katy Tur's Ego's Sweet Vacation err Job

Yeah, it's not a vacation. It's a job. It's hard work out there chasing tornadoes. It's tiring I tell you. There are museums to go to. And no, that dinosaur picture isn't Keith Olbermann without make-up (although they both are about the same age). And then there was that sweet side-trip to Carhenge. And yesterday it was Mt. Rushmore which has like some pics of some really old dudes on them-even older than Keith. Although now that I think of it he has mentioned he thinks his face needs to be up there. Anyway, it's been really sweet seeing all these cool states. And the sweetest part of all? Katy's Ego gets to work on her tan and flash her fabulous gams in the process. Life is Sweet. And tornadoes? None in the forecast for at least the next week. This is the greatest vacation job ever!

It's Katy Tur's Ego!

Yeah, that's right bitches. I'm guest-blogging here at KOE. I've seen your snide little remarks about me, my resume and my new job at The Weather Channel. Look, Keith's Ego has already laid it all out for you. My job relationship with Keith's Ego had nothing to do whatsoever with this new gig at the NBC Universal-owned Weather Channel. Sure he hooked up Rachel Maddow, David Schuster, and Ed what's his name up with their jobs but he has no influence whatsoever at TWC, got it? So since I'm like totally fed up with your snide remarks, I'm going to explain to you why I got the job I got at TWC. See, here's my resume.

A versatile reporter, producer, and writer with eight years experience in television news. A strong storyteller with excellent live skills with special emphasis on breaking news stories.

Yes, that's right, I'm a very strong storyteller. Stories I've covered have ranged from an Easter Bunny on Ice to some band that no one's ever heard of an exclusive with the hottest band on the music scene today. And who says I'm dumb besides you bitches? Katy Tur's Ego has a BA in Philosophy from UC-Santa Barbara. And no, it's not true that it's a party school. No, it's an institution of serious learning. Look, I learned how to grope another woman's breast in a threesome do an interpretive dance on the plight of the environment and population overcrowding and all that crap while I was there.

And philosophy? It's like totally applicable to television reporting. I mean seriously. And this old woman (seriously, she's got to be like at least like 40 or something-that's ancient-kinda like Keith) who complains because no one would hire her for a TV job after she got out of Harvard? it's totally because she didn't major in Philosophy like Katy Tur's Ego did. See? I'm a genius!

Okay where was I? Oh yeah, experience. I have lots of experience. See, it says so right there on the resume. That Freelance Reporter Job at WPIX. I mean sure it was only a weekend job but it was still a job. And Keith's Ego had nothing to do with Katy's Ego getting that job either. See, it says so right here.

The Media Mob caught up with a CW11 spokesperson Jessica Bellucci this morning. According to Ms. Bellucci, Ms. Tur joined the station several weeks ago as a "freelance reporter," working on general assignment. "She got the job on her own merit," said Ms. Bellucci.

And like I spent a whole 10 months working at some cable tv "news" station that no one has ever heard of at a news outfit in Brooklyn. See, it says I was a one-woman band (I really love bands and dancing by the way).

Okay and then there was the Dec. '06 to May '07 gig that Katy's Ego had at VOOM HD News in NYC. (May-December, kinda like Keith's Ego and Katy's Ego, get it?). I mean sure no one has any idea what VOOM HD was ('cuz it's like only seen in a really teeny tiny area since the plug got pulled on it but that had nothing to do with my brilliant reporting). Now I know you're asking yourself why I haven't mentioned those videos I shot of elephants marching through NYC on Current and YouTube during that same time frame. Easy bitches: 'cuz those videos like totally don't exist anymore (because I deleted them faster than Keith's Ego can blow a ton of money on Ebay on old baseball junk). So too bad you missed out on their brilliance cuz they totally rocked.

And I know some of you are asking why it was that Keith's Ego referred to me as a "freelance reporter" in interviews back in the day when he hired me we first hooked up. Look, Keith's Ego is busy. You can't expect him to pay attention to what I'm doing now can you? (And thank God for that. He seriously has no idea what I get up to when he's not around).

Now that brings us to the entire year that Katy's Ego spent as an "editorial assistant" at KTLA in LA. Now in some reports Katy's Ego was referred to as a "producer" while at KTLA. Actually no one has any idea what I did there. Me? I couldn't figure out what I was doing there either. I mean clearly I was destined to greater things which is how I went from no on-camera experience in LA to working in the Number One Media market in the world. Happens everyday right? Right.

Where was I? Oh yeah, my beginning job--working for this thing called the Los Angeles News Service as a "field producer/video library manager/sales". The people who own that thing, Bob Tur and his ex-wife Marika Tur-Gerrard are great people (okay fine, big deal, so what-they're my parents, my getting the job with them had nothing to do with the fact that I was their daughter). And I know you're asking yourself how it is that I managed to hold down a full-time job from June 2001 to June 2005 in Los Angeles which just happened to coincide with the same time frame I was attending college in Santa Barbara. Please people, it's because I can multi-task! DUH!

So there you have it. My brilliant four eight-year career. And I had no help whatsoever from anyone (other than Keith's Ego's agent Jean Sage who in a totally coincidental way, just happens to be Katy's Ego's agent too-small world huh?).

Egospeak 101

From TVNewser: An anonymous tipster wrote this weekend that Katy Tur, girlfriend of MSNBC's Keith Olbermann, "is now chasing tornadoes as part of The Weather Channel's Vortex2 team." Weather Channel meteorologist Mike Bettes introduced Tur on Friday as one of the Vortex2 digital journalists in a short Q&A. What is she most looking forward to? "Tornadoes...duh, Bettes," she said. But since NBCU owns both MSNBC and The Weather Channel, questions may arise about whether the relationship helped get the job.

Olbermann tells TVNewser: "Anybody who suggests so is misinformed, and/or sadly unaware that in this time when the industry is collapsing around us, nobody gets a job based on 'influence,' only talent."

For those of you new to Keith Olbermann's Egospeak, let The Ego break it down for you "Anyone who suggests so is misinformed" (Anyone who suggests Keith Olbermann's Ego hooked up Katy with a job is both well-informed and pissed off and taking it out on my poor little defenseless girlfriend) "and/or sadly unaware that in this time when the industry is collapsing around us" (because the people who were laid off so Katy could get a job at The Weather Channel are very well aware in case you're not) "nobody gets a job based on 'influence,' (you know, like Katy did, or Luke Russert), "only talent" (yeah I know you've seen the videos. She sucks. But in a totally good way).

Where was Katy Tur while Keith Olbermann was at the White House Correspondents' dinner?

So I know the fans are interested in knowing where Keith Olbermann's Ego's girlfriend, Katy Tur, was last night while The Ego was hobnobbing with B-List celebs. Wonder no more. Katy was here. That's right, for the next five weeks she'll be chasing tornadoes. (To see the fabulousness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego's girlfriend, click on "The Gadgets" to see video of Katy in action.) The Ego just wants to point out that Katy's new job, working with The Weather Channel, a subsidiary of NBC-Universal is purely non-coincidental.

And what will The Ego be doing the next five weeks as Katy chases tornadoes? The Ego will be chasing whatever he likes. As it should be.
