Garrison Keillor, the former host of "A Prairie Home Companion," says he's been fired by Minnesota Public Radio over allegations of improper behavior.

Keillor told The Associated Press of his firing in an email. In a follow-up statement, he says he was fired over "a story that I think is more interesting and more complicated than the version MPR heard."

Image and video hosting by TinyPic Move over David Letterman. Things just got unpleasant.

What killed it with me about him was when he said that Republicans, if they get sick, should just take a couple aspirin and then die. He said this about 5 or 6 years ago.

Sounds like I should know who this person is, but I don’t.

Not sure if you are being sarcastic but I work with a number of really bright young people and only 1 in 5 had ever heard of him. I’m so old.

all the sparkle and joy of a non-denominational funeral.

Even as a non-denominational, I have to admit that's true and very funny ;-)

HAHAHA!

so glad some of these folks I’ve felt some thing was off about, are finally having themselves exposed and fired or at least having to face the issue in a public way.

I'm not sure if it's Bannon, but it sure seems strange to me that we're getting a flood of leftists tainted by scandal all of a sudden.

While he may not be directly responsible, I am envisioning DJT thinking to himself, "that's what you get for launching those scurrilous attacks on me. Maybe you'll think twice about it next time."

This is all a product of Liberal ideology.

They believe morality is relative. Given that, what's to stop a man from simply acting on his natural impulses.

There's nothing wrong with it in their ideology so why not just pluck the fruit from any tree in the garden and take a healthy bite.

What A Christmas!

Yeah, baby... More winning!

Nothing makes me happier than to see this creepy, smug, arrogant condescending liberal "icon" crash and burn. Who's next?? :-D
