I don't know what that is but I'll tune in! Keith Olbermann is one of the most intellectually stimulating and entertaining personalities today; I've been missing his insight and wit lately.
Olbermann has been fired from every media job he's ever had. He's alienated his co-workers, even those who most supported him, again and again. He has no respect for authority and those he's worked for. He has a long history of disrespecting women.
No one who knows him seems to have anything nice to say about him. Even Rachel Maddow, who owes everything to him, is very measured in her words about him.
And this doesn't even touch the continuous lying and distortion that he performed literally on a daily basis.
I always wonder how certain people develop a following. How could anyone have fallen for Hitler in the early days? Why would anyone get tricked by Charles Manson, or that loony "pastor" who shows up at soldier's funerals? But they do, somehow, someway.
I wonder the same thing about fans of Olbermann.
