Is that what he called Mariotti? I have not heard any details. Just that he said something and got punished.
Good think Ozzie did not call him a Li(e)beral.
(If you have ever hear Jay Mariotti on one of his torrential Bush-bashing side tracks you would know he and Keith Oblermann deserve each other in the worst way).
He also called him a POS but it was the fag comment that got the press up in arms which is understandable since fags are no minority in the press corps.
