Is it because Comcast finally took over?

Big mouth Blobbermann let go? If so, I would say so. Comcast took over about 2 or 3 days ago.

I heard they fired some executives right away.

I had it in breaking to begin with and they took it out and then mashed up the actual headline by adding Facebook Breaking to it. Maybe they hit the sauce too hard when the news broke?

Might need more than FB as a source. I watched the video and was hoping he would pull a Howard Beal! (How is DU taking this sad news? LOL)

Comcast should bring in a bunch of fresh faces from around the country, after they fire Olbermann, MadCow, loony Shultz, Lawrence O’Donnell, et al.

facebook.com has never been and never will be a legitimate source for the Free Republic breaking news sidebar.

Find a better source.
