Heads are exploding over on the DU.
There have been rumors that Comcast is going to be shaking things up over there.
Good way to start...
I have always thought that the support, favorable coverage and bias in the MSM for the Democratic Party should be counted as “in kind” political contributions. Just MHO.
Paybacks are a Behar.
Queef is in the bathtub right now with Mr. Rubber Ducky.
he’ll sign on with NPR, they are always fundraising
It’s only a matter of time before he busts out the Chewbacca defense...
When did NBC establish standards?
Okay this is weird. He gets canned for making campaign donations? I don’t see this as anyones business really unless, it is in a contract.
Now if they would have told the truth and said he was canned for the election night broadcast of a joke with Matthews and Maddow-this makes sense. But I guess that sounds funny so they pulled this reason out of their butts.
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
Wait I just remembered reading here that MSNBC was changing hands in owners or management. Anyone have a link?
So, they woke up and smelled the coffee at MSNBC?
He’s one of my least favorite people on the planet but this seems unfair to me...if the stated reason is what’s *really* behind this action. It doesn’t make sense considering that he doesn’t claim to be unbiased. On the contrary, isn’t it his job to be vocal about his biases? I thought that’s what they were paying him for. Maybe they were just looking for an “out” so they used what amounts to a technicality to put him aside.
Send a note to Comcast, the soon-to-be new owner of MSNBC giving your support to this decision:

This is damn funny!!!!! Pardon me while I wipe this smirk off my face!
This amounts to a sacrifice by the left. Olbermann’s head on a pike was a necessary first step. The thing is, he was a throwaway piece to begin with. Dems don’t think this is going to be enough do they? I wouldn’t start talking until they gave us the name of two cabinet level departments that would legislated out of existence in 2 years. That’s the start. Let the dems pick but two must go.
