First, the NYT’s writer is probably lying.

This story is fishy.

When he's on opposite O'Reilly, Olbermann get more than 1,000,000 viewers. link. Including the repeat shows, Olbermann gets almost 2 million vs O'Reilly's over 5 million.
This story is fishy.

Actually Olbermann is over the top even for me.
I doubt that.
