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.
