Keith Olbermann fired from MSNBC

Keith Olbermann was fired by MSNBC sources tell TMZ, and we're told it had everything to do with Comcast's acquisition of NBC. Sources connected with the network tell us ... Comcast honchos did not like Keith's defiance and the way he played in the sandbox. Our sources say Keith has around two years left on his contract, and he'll be paid his salary -- around $7 million a year. We don't know if Comcast will let Keith make a deal with another network as part of an exit agreement, but it's a good bet he'll be benched for a minimum of 6 months, and probably longer. |

pretty crazy? are you fucking kidding me? have you listen to Glenn Beck and company? Keith was probably the only sane voice in corporate media. ( Besides Rachel, she's next though)
You should be ashamed too, Keith was one of the few that dedicate a segment of his show in FAVOR of the Dream act back in December...but i guess that's pretty crazy to you.

At moments, Keith and Jon Stewart raced who's gonna be the biggest fanboy of the president. I'd kind of forget that race if Keith (or Jon, for that matter) got some sweat on his behind and go to Iraq and Afghanistan to cover what's REALLY happening there, like Rachel did.
There's no sane voice in the corporate media, and no freedom of speech either.
P.S. My jaw dropped when I saw who's Bill O'Reilly gonna interview before SuperBowl kick-off: none other than the prez himself...

he's same as every other "crazy" news commentators that are out there, whether it be from Fox, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, and etc. stop putting this guy on your pedestal, it's unhealthy, especially with a guy that has a 7 million a year contract. (don't you dare start comparing contracts with that of Hannity, Beck, and O'Reilly.)
it's always the same drama every time a commentator "quits" or gets "fired" that the fanboys rush to to defend their heroes and claim that was the last sane voice for America.
gg America.
