Olbermann Checks Out Of Daily Kos After Criticism From Left

After taking heat from some of his liberal fans on Twitter over his strong criticism of Pres. Barack Obama’s Oval Office speech Tuesday, Keith Olbermann stopped into another of his new media stomping grounds to find more of the same.
Now he’s leaving The Daily Kos after reading a “diary trashing first me and my colleague Rachel.”
Olbermann wrote a blog post, presumably his last for awhile, headlined “Check, Please”, as a response to the diary he found and one particular comment that insinuated his criticism came because attacking the President was good for ratings (a pretty strange notion when discussing MSNBC). “It can’t be verified because it’s nonsense, and it wasn’t checked because nobody bothered,” wrote Olbermann. “Unfortunately there’s been a lot of this here lately.”

“It can’t be verified because it’s nonsense, and it wasn’t checked because nobody bothered,” wrote Olbermann. “Unfortunately there’s been a lot of this here lately.” Usually on Countdown with Keith Olbermann.

Olberdork is probably getting more publicity over attacking his master than he ever got for anything else before. Hey Keith: I wonder if there’s a lesson to be learned from this?

“It can’t be verified because it’s nonsense,,," Little does he realize he spoke the truth--his ratings have not EVER been verified to have increased have they?
To: careyb
Now a liberal puke is worried about fact checking?
To: careyb
Kos is a nutbar gathering of neurotic white libs who create threads hundreds of posts long which say nothing but convey “niceness” towards one another and hatred to the GOP.

“It can’t be verified because it’s nonsense, and it wasn’t checked because nobody bothered,” wrote Olbermann. I thought this was PMSNBC's mission statement.
The left eating their own again.
Funny how the left and the right take turns in the dunking booth...yet the country always heads in the same direction...to the abyss.

“Unfortunately there’s been a lot of this here lately.”
LATELY? Did he write “LATELY?”
Allrighty, then.
