@KeithOlbermann “This pea-brained scumbag identifies himself as Hunter Waltman and we should do our best to make sure the rest of his life is a living hell.” “And the nitwit clown who wrote this fawning piece should be fired.”

"We have spoken to him about not making personal attacks," an ESPN representative said in a statement.

"Someone with his following needs to understand the possible impact of his words," Hall noted. ”Telling over 1 million people to make someone’s life a living hell could have seriously dangerous consequences. (This quote from The Clarion-Ledger’s Executive Editor Sam Hall, not ESPN)

So not fired?
In Minnesota, one in four people having a hunting and fishing license. Keith btw is scared to drive. He has no driver license. A grown man who does not drive let alone hunt.

It is the leftist personality type. Angry, unhinged, and sanctimonious. ESPN can’t help themselves. They know Olbermann is a liability, but they love his politics so much, they just can’t stop themselves from hiring him.

Not on excerpt list so maybe post the other two sentences so we know what the heck is being discussed?

***********

March 27, 2019

Anti-Trump Resistance hero Keith Olbermann received a talking to from ESPN, his employer, after demanding Mississippi Clarion-Ledger journalist Brian Broom be fired and encouraging an Internet mob to harass a 22-year-old hunter Broom wrote about for the outlet.

Olbermann posted Broom’s Clarion Ledger piece chronicling Hunter Waltman’s kill of a rare white turkey to Twitter on Tuesday. And in typical unhinged fashion, the former MSNBC personality urged social media users to make Waltman’s life “a living hell.”

“It be rare and beautiful so me should kill it,” mocked the 60-year-old. “This pea-brained scumbag identifies himself as Hunter Waltman and we should do our best to make sure the rest of his life is a living hell.”

The politico added, “And the nitwit clown who wrote this fawning piece should be fired.”

It be rare and beautiful so me should kill it.

This pea-brained scumbag identifies himself as Hunter Waltman and we should do our best to make sure the rest of his life is a living hell. And the nitwit clown who wrote this fawning piece should be fired.

I can’t say it enough, Unless you want stupid POSs like Olbermann to cause you grief STAY OFF PUBLIC MEDIA. Or be prepared for a fight.

You can email or text your friends.

When he got fired from CurrentTV, Al Gore’s partner, Joel Hyatt, gave a press conference and went on an epic rant about how Keith was THE WORLD’S WORST EMPLOYEE!

ESPN management was not watching apparently.

I seriously doubt Keith Olbermann will make some Mississippi country boy’s life a living hell. Let some snowflake try to mess with him.

If I’m Hunter Waltman, I’m checking out good lawyers to file the mother of all lawsuits against Disney Corporation and Hearst Communications, who are the owners of ESPN.

This kid just won the lottery. With a good ambulance chaser he is going to live large for the rest of his life courtesy of ESPN.

White turkeys are very common in commercial turkey industry. so one escaped.

Kind of like a white chicken escaping from a chicken factory.

I believe the Keith is a racist and only cares about white turkeys and not brown or black turkeys.
