You Knew This Was Coming

UPDATED: “This is about the systematic dismantling of the progressive voice in this country,” and other demented moonbat reactions to the MSNBC-Olbermann divorce.

Olbermann Out at MSNBC

Contract negotiations evidently fell through: Keith Olbermann, the highest-rated host on MSNBC, announced abruptly on the air Friday night that he was leaving his show, “Countdown,” immediately. The host, who has had a stormy relationship with the management of the network for some time, especially since he was suspended for two days last November, came […]

Dear God, Not Huckabee, Please

At MSNBC, Chuck Todd is doing cartwheels in his Team Obama cheerleader skirt over a poll showing a spike in the president’s approval. What ought to have Republicans calling the suicide hotline is the poll’s numbers showing Mike Huckabee ahead of the GOP 2012 pack: Looking ahead to the 2012 presidential race, the NBC/WSJ poll […]

Jared Loughner is a psychotic who bore an irrational grudge against Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Why, then, is MSNBC treating its viewers to hour […]
