Interesting.
There was NO THERE THERE.
Now, how to get rid of Gregory ~ you can complain of course.
Better yet, we have wordsmiths ~ they could certainly wrap Gregory's racist insult around the implication that "Gregory suggested that only black people get foodstamps" ~ Olberdork is outta MSNBC even and he had been a perfect match for them. Then, there was "Special Ed" Schulz. Gregory is just another of the same kind, paid higher maybe, and on broadcast, not just cable ~ but I think we could do it.
Nonetheless, it gives lie to your thesis that Gaygory somehow 'confused and befuddled' Newt.
Olbermann killed his own career -- only on the surface was it about his comments. In reality, insiders tell me that it was because he was an insufferable prick in real life. Shultz nearly lost out for the same reason, but he barely hung on.
Gaygory should be removed, but it isn't up to us. I'd be willing to try, but I wouldn't hold your breath for results.
