LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK – MSNBC news commentator Keith Olbermann was evicted from his Mother’s basement by Suffolk County Police yesterday. Olbermann, who is about to turn fifty one years old, has lived in the basement for over thirty- two years. According to neighbors, Mrs. Olbermann told her son that it was time that he got his own place and that crying was not going to change her mind this time.

Olbermann's name is misspelled in the title but I left it "as is". Mods, please correct if you deem necessary.

Is this a joke? I just had to crack up.

This is not true? is it? hilarious if it is....

[gimme1ibertee]

ROTFLMAO!!!!

[trisham]

Heh. :)

[Allegra]

LOL!

If this is not satire, it really is quite funny. 51 years old and Olbermann was still living with mommy.

The article is just too hilarious to be true. He is not a stable man and should not be considered a serious pundit at all. One should be embarrassed to be even associated with him.

Is this a joke?

I just love that people aren't quite sure.

Says a lot about Olberscum.

What about US, Mrs. Olberman?? What did WE do??

The article is tagged as "satire". Folks should add the word "satire" to the titles of the articles they write when they are just crazy enough to be true.

Not surprised, an Egore...probebly sleeps with those big basement spiders and drinks water from the sump pump....

Around my way, we do have a reputation to maintain; he could always rent some garage space from Joey Buttafuoco.

My apologies — yes, it appears to be a joke, which is why I tagged it as “satire”, as I thought changes to the article title aren’t allowed. Glad everyone finds it as funny as I did.

[hennie pennie]

LOL - one of the keywords is, “satire.”

Satire.

wikipedia:

>>Olbermann’s father, Theodore, died on March 13, 2010 of complications from colon surgery the previous September. His mother had died several months before

No apology, please. I was not asking you to change the title here on FR -- I just wish the author at the Rash had (satire)'d it. I did find the article funny -- and a tad too believable.

[nolongerademocrat]

Absolutely hilarious!!!

[Fast Moving Angel]

I just love that people aren't quite sure.

Agreed ... this is the definition of the best satire -- where it makes you stop and think, wait a minute, is this really true or not? -- because obviously, there's at least a kernel of credibility if it prompts this sort of reaction.

Did she kick his gay lover out also? Just asking....
