The best part is that “another liberal ‘news’ program bites the dust”.
FAIL!

I didn’t see that. What happened?

MSNBC is removing Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews as the anchors of live political events, bowing to growing criticism that they are too opinionated to be seen as neutral in the heat of the presidential campaign.
Duh, ya think?

How Olbermann survives in the media business with such abysmally low ratings is a bigger mystery than the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa. Glenn Beck or Bill O’Reilly would be in danger of cancellation if their ratings were even close to sinking to Olbermann’s low level. Maybe they keep him around to make the other twits on MSNBC (Crissy Boy, Gregory Boy, and Rachel Boy) look halfway decent by comparison.

This is the funniest event in the MSM, whith the possible exception of the contraction at the NYT, in all of 2008!

The man is insane, his ramblings about race makes me think he is one step from offing himself on air. The Playboy interview in which they probably felt they could not dress up his comments make me think he is on a high dose of prescription crazy feel good pills.

[ David Gregory, the NBC newsman and White House correspondent who also hosts a program on MSNBC, will take over during such events as this fall's presidential and vice presidential debates and election night. ]
Can you get anymore gay?...

Too bad.
Everytime Oberwellian opens his mouth, McCain and Palin gain another thousand votes.
This is why they've been swapped.
To: markomalley
I'm sad to see them go.....
“Bad movies make you appreciate the good ones.”
Very few people besides the nutjob left watched them. Their constant outrages are a great way to show everyone how out of whack liberal are.
They wear many hats but Oberman’s is always lined with tinfoil.

Why is Sarah & John letting any of the media, who has been unfairly attacking Sarah, run the debates? You know they will give Obama & Biden the questions ahead of time & throw trick questions to Sarah & John. I would demand something else is done-no NBC debates for sure.

Oh look, they are replacing a “steaming pile” with a “sack of s#!t”
That should be a big improvement.

Olbermann showed up on the pre-game show for NBC’s Sunday Night Football. During the segment I saw, the rest of the crew essentially ignored Olbermann and he didn't say much at all. I was watching it at a restaurant, so I couldn't switch the channel ...
To: markomalley
, MSNBC President Phil Griffin said in an interview that during live events Olbermann and Matthews "put on different hats. I think the audience gets it. . . . I see zero problem."A true statement.
Unfortunately for MSNBC, the audience is only 47 people, everyone else thinks they are as biased as hell and are watching other channels.
