I hope Maddow is next.

The problem is they are still there, (like Books hair) waiting.

At least he read the libs a story before he was sacked.

So what is it you hate most about Maddow? Her honesty, or her dissent? Or is it just that she's got "the gay"?

This Space For Rent!

My favourite place to sack people is at the bus stop.

Jew Joe Lieberman Used His White House Connections to Get Keith Olbermann Fired

Quote:

“In one of them, he said, “don’t let the delusional liar door hit you in the delusional liar butt on the way out.” In another, he said, “goodbye, Joe Lieberman, and good riddance.” And in still another, he accused Lieberman of “lying even on the way out the door.”
-Huffington Post



The liberal blog-o-sphere is a buzz this morning and it appears the spin is to blame it all on the Comcast merger. No one is talking about what Keith O said about Lyin Joe less than 24 hours before he got sacked. “don’t let the delusional liar door hit you in the delusional liar butt on the way out. Goodbye, Joe Lieberman, and good riddance.” he accused Lieberman of “lying even on the way out the door.”

If Lyin Joe got Olbermann fired, he did it through his White House connections… which means… Obama did it. And THAT is why you won’t hear a peep about this connection from the fake “progressive” left.

Olbermann brought up MSNBC from the doldrums and his fan base is extremely loyal. This is going to hurt MSNBC’s ratings which will hurt Comcast’s new investment. If anything, Comcast is pissed off right now. They paid for a #2 news network and right before they took ownership, someone at that network canned their star anchor. There are 6 thousand comments on the MSNBC article about this and it’s just 6:25am the morning after. The majority of those comments are similar to this one.

“A huge mistake for MSNBC to lose Keith. I am finished with their shenanigans. I will follow Keith wherever he goes.” ex-MSNBC viewer.

If anyone tries to tell you this was done by Comcast, don’t buy it. That’s just PR guys trying to fix the story. This is all about Lyin Joe Lieberman throwing a hissy-fit and GE’s CEO taking a new job at the White House.

It wouldn’t be the first time the White House got MSNBC’s star personality fired… Phil Donahue?

Quote:

“Mr. Olbermann had signed a four-year contract extension in 2008 for an estimated $30 million. He hosted “Countdown” at 8 p.m. since 2003 and it became the foundation of the channel’s surge to status as the second-ranked news channel on cable television, after Fox News, surpassing the one-time leader CNN.”
-New York Times



In his press conference, Lying Joe praised himself over and over again for all the great things he has done for us. Keith ran with a piece in his show last night picking apart Lieberman’s delusional farewell speech. Lieberman will remain in office for 2 more years so I don’t know why he chose to honor himself with such a melodramatic masturbatory celebration of self, but that’s Lyin Joe for you.

Today, Obama announced General Electric’s CEO will be heading up an important advisory council in the White House. This shit can’t be unrelated. GE owns 87% of MSNBC which means Olbermann’s ex-boss, Jeffrey Immelt, will be the man advising the president on policies that MSNBC will be reporting on. Even after the transition to Comcast slated for the end of this month, GE will still own 49% of NBC Universal which owns MSNBC.

I wonder how tough MSNBC’s journalists will be on Obama’s domestic policies, now that they know their boss (the guy who literally signs their paychecks) is the one who actually wrote those policies.

I hope, in my heart of hearts, that Keith O quit today because he just couldn’t bring himself to work in a situation like that. I really do. I used to like Keith Olbermann. Yeah, he did some things I really didn’t like; he carried water for the Obama regime when he damn sure shouldn’t have. But overall, I think he may have had some integrity at some point. I really hope he quit on his own over this Immelt fiasco. I do.

But something tells me that is just more fantastical thinking on my part. More than likely, a smarmy little weasel, Lyin Joe Lieberman, called up his connections in the White House and got them to pressure Immelt into shit-canning Keith Olbermann because he had the audacity to call out Lyin Joe for his pathetic display o

Why is that a problem? I want them there, uncensored, encouraged, and free to do their thing as they have in their own special way for years. With them, at least you know what you're dealing with. There's no professionalism, no ethics, no nuanced subtleties of context or intent; just in your face liberal fanatacism along with obssessive conservative character assassination in its' crudest form. They're the best thing we have, and the worst thing Obama has.

They told him to lay off, and he told em to go to hell.

Good for him, I only wish Sam Donaldson had made the same decision when his producers ORDERED him to support Bush - instead of doing so and then coming back later with an apology for it.

Yes, Olbermann is a pompous ass, but I respect his principles in this case a great deal, when "The Man" tells you to back off, and you stand and deliver regardless of the cost, that buys cred from me, and lots of it.

God, you big brains are so STUPID! It wasn't because he was a lib he left. Soon the truth will be told (it's money) then I will dance.
