4. HAHAHAHAHAHA

LOOK AT MORAN GUY!!! :rofl:

2. Msnbc's mistreatment of Olbermann is a dis to us all.

And it's pure economic stupidity. If I was an investor I'd fire those idiots. They need to go.

[davidwparker]

10. I totally agree with this. To have us rally around him when

indefinitely suspended, and then to fire him weeks later, I would say a MAJOR disrespecting was done to the viewers.

I had cancelled MSNBC within the hour of hearing Countdown had its last show.

[Iggo]

5. I agree.

But there's no way I could pass up that challenge. ;-)

[emsimon33]

6. That's what we get when we permits the public airways

to be merged! Comcast should be put out of business for their choking the Internet and NEVER permitted to purchase NBC!

[NYCGirl]

7. Listen, I love Keith, but the most talented journalist of the

20th century? Ii think even Keith would say it was this guy:

[Politicalboi]

8. But he smoked

LOL!

[cdsilv]

18. um, we are now in the 21st century - n/t

[NYCGirl]

19. Indeed we are, but the original post includes the last century,

which is the 20th.

He was the most talented Journalist on TV this Century and last as well....

9. I can't wait to tune into his new show,

wherever that is.

[Bette Noir]

20. Me, too. Even if it means paying for HBO.

[mzmolly]

23. Ok, yikes.

I don't want to give Comcast any more money than I am currently. But it would be hard to resist Maher and Olbermann. ;)

[Sirveri]

12. I'm not leaving. kthxbai.

[Major Hogwash]

13. What?

What the heck is "kthxbai"?

A secret code for the secret service?

[kentauros]

14. It's shorthand "txter" speak

also used in the same way on the Internets. Specifically, it's short for:

Okay
Thanks
Bye

:)

[Hissyspit]

16. LOLCat Speak.

Cat's can type in English, but not very well.

Ceiling Cat caused that problem when ancient kitties tried to construct the Scratching Post of Babel.

[samsingh]

15. agreed

[JustAnotherGen]

17. I've already

NOT really been watching O'Donnell's show. Big Ed I can only take for 5 or 10 minutes. One of the reasons I did enjoy watching Keith is because he took the time to RESEARCH then explain things. Rachel Maddow does this as well -- but now she's probably the only I'll be watching on MSNBC now.

[LibDemAlways]

21. From a strictly business standpoint, it's beyond stupid.

TV is ratings driven. When ratings fall, so do profits.

These assholes are so determined to silence a liberal voice, that they're willing to sacrifice big money to do it. That's the most frightening aspect of this.

[classof56]

22. Okay, I won't unrec because I certainly don't want to leave DU and...

never come back. Not till my gold star runs out, at least. Kidding! I appreciate your passion and your opinion and of course you are free to drop MSNBC from your viewing list if you so choose. I love Keith, figure he knows what he's doing, and I respect his decision to keep his counsel for now. I look forward to seeing him in a different venue at some point, but meanwhile, I will watch MSNBC shows--Rachel, Lawrence, Ed, Tweety sometimes--when I want to. Not recommending your post, but looks my "R" is not needed.

Peace and blessings.

[glinda]

24. He is our future.

[WiffenPoof]

25. Anyone Know...

the contact email for MSNBC?

-PLA

[harmonicon]

26. damn... too late to unrec.

All cable "news" is bullshit, including MSNBC. I don't know what the idea of talent has to do with journalism, but if talent = good, you're pretty far off base. The guy isn't even a journalist, but just an editorialist. Are you acquainted with journalism? Have you ever read something written by a real journalist? Who do you think gathers the news that he comments on?

[defendandprotect]

27. They had to do it ... the right wing is always very vulnerable to TRUTH ... and had to

protect itself from any bit of truth --

it's like a pebble hitting a mirror -- it just shatters the myths!

[LynneSin]

28. Damnit, I wanted to unrec this just for the challenge

Mind you, I really don't even put much thought into the whole rec/unrec system but damnit, I hate letting a challenge pass me by.

But it was over 24 hours ago so couldn't do it
