TheOracle commented on the blog post Olbermann Fired From Current TV
I wondered if something was up.
Just before Keith left MSNBC, he stopped doing his tongue-in-cheek fact-based often-hilarious “World’s Worst” segment (which also often parodied the right-wing nuts at Fox News or elsewhere in wing-nut land), and just in the past week or so, Keith dropped this segment again from his Current “Countdown” program. Keith’s decision? Pressure from above?
I’ll miss Keith, but hopefully not for long. He was a voice of reason (with a wry sense of humor) during the criminal GW Bush years, and now we’re facing a critical election season in which his voice will be sorely missed (at least by me, I’m certain no right-wing trolls will miss him, not with them getting all their, ahem, “news” from Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck).
