Olbermann is gone...

Why do you think this happened?

Who knows. I never really liked him even from his ESPN days.

That's a good question. I don't think his outrageus tone was the problem, as MSNBC thrives on that. IT's kind funny though, Glenn Beck predicted it. maybe he's going to CNN to make them respectable.....:rofl

Comcast bought MSNBC. Owned by GE. They wouldn't put up with Olberman and his transgressions. He was let go with 2 years left on his contract. Now if Maddow would follow, MSNBC would be onto something.......

Hmmm, MSNBC going rouge? They might actually get 1% of the market share.

Olbermann was reported to be as difficult and abusive off camera as on. There is a limit of tolerance even for those idealogues. Of course they have his clones matthews, big ed and larry to carry on the cultural revolution. Plus there is the best looking guy rachael.
