I saw him in a DC train station a fee years ago. He’s an even bigger dork in person.
He lost his sports job through low ratings and his very poor eyesight (not his fault). Then for various self-serving breaches of rules.
How in the world is media so desperate that his is still around and getting paid to babble. Same for Morning Joe.
In 2015, Olbermann fired for second time by ESPN.
“He was forced out of ESPN in 1997 after making disparaging remarks about the network; forced out of MSNBC in 2010 after revelations that he’d made donations to political campaigns; and fired from Current TV in 2012 for what the network described as “material breaches of his contract, including the failure to show up at work, sabotaging the network and attacking Current and its executives.””
