MSNBC drops Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews from anchor chair... David Gregory will anchor news coverage of the coming debates and election night.... Developing...

Some staff members said the tension led to the network’s decision to keep Mr. Olbermann in New York for the Republican convention, after he ran the desk in Denver during the Democratic convention. MSNBC said that he stayed in New York to anchor coverage of Hurricane Gustav. But some workers say there were other reasons — namely, that Mr. Olbermann was concerned about his safety in St. Paul, given the loud crowds at MSNBC’s set in Denver.


Democrats as usual fear the majority of America. Olberman as a representative of the left, is terrified of conservatives.

NBC in fear of bias bleed? HA! The stockholders should be buying stomach upset medicine.

You know, when you have to put French-speaking, snot-nosed lefty David Gregory in the chair to address anti-Republican bias of your other hosts, you are in deep doo-doo.

Neither one of these hacks should have ever been in an anchor chair, they can be the political commentators all they like but thats editorial, they had no business in the anchors spot.

I've been watching Olbermann interact with his peers, including Chris Matthews, Tom Brokaw. It appears to me that Olbermann is despised by everyone around him. He appears to batter his own colleagues, and belittle them on national TV. He recently had a nasty exchange with Joe Scarborough. But the other night, following McCain's acceptance speech, Olbermann seemed particularly condescending to Brian Williams, suggesting he "check into the Ferraro campaign" when blasting Williams for a mild compliment on Palin.

I hate this arrogant bast*rd, and glad he's been demoted.
