The more Keith's serious lack of thick skin becomes evident, the less I like him.

I've known too many people like him: guys who are so susceptible to teh butthurtz, you can't even come close to joking with them.

I worked with a guy who once got fired for playing audio of the Nick Berg beheading and laughing about it on the air. Try to crack a joke about him, though? He'd cry to the program director.

Keith strikes me as that kind of guy. A bit of a diva.

You know what else reminds me of O'Reilly? Doing something a teenager would do when they're upset, like complaining to Twitter. Put on your big boy pants.

I can specificly remember not caring. Olbermann has made some good and eloquent points in his time, but they seemed to be buried in nonsense.

I appreciated how bluntly he put his feelings on the Bush Administration's handling of the Iraq War. As a person? He's an asshole.

Olbermann was good until Obama was elected, then he went WAY of the deep end.

I have always wondered what happened with him. Was he raped up the ass by a Republican to have so much hatred?

Maybe when he starts his next show broadcasting on CB radio from somewhere in Hoboken he can think of some jokes about Jimmy Kimmel to tell.

It's almost as if liberals adjust their opinions of people and situations based on new facts, whereas conservatives seem to consider it a badge of honor not to.

Olbermann is 100% typical of the types of people you encounter in broadcasting. My father owned a couple broadcasting outlets when I was a kid, and I couldn't even begin to recount all of the horror stories of him dealing with tantrums, substance abuse, whining, backstabbing, and all around negativity.

Broadcasting attracts fantastically insecure people. I mean even more insecure than the types of folks you meet at record labels or film studios. There's something inherently seductive about the field to psychologically damaged people.

Believe me when I say that Olbermann and O'Reilly hate each other because they're so similar.

Hey don't disrupt the circle jerk they've got going here. Keith has always been an asshole but since Bush is no longer in office he out lasted his usefulness for them so he was thrown on the liberal used to be really important but no longer matters to us shiat heap along with Cindy Sheehan and all the other bat shiat left wing crazies they no longer care about. Remember liberal media darling Cindy Sheehan? When Bush was in office the media waited with bated breath for every word she had to say about him because her son had died in the war. Fast forward to 2009, her son isn't any less dead but the media doesn't give a flying fark what she has to say about the current administration because her opinion is no longer important when there's a democrat in office.

While Olberman is and always has been an asshole, I dont see how Kimmel can be called an asshole since these dinners are known to cut into people like roasts usually do, I hope Olberman saved his money since he may be out of a job for a while.

I still find it funny back when I used to call Olberman an asshole I would get labeled a freeper and I didnt even know what that was at the time, actually had to google it, but now that hes on the outs with everyone else it seems everyone is agreeing with me.

Jeez, you get your own way, Keith and Cindy are marginalized (because they were such huge powerhouses in the first place, snort), and you still want to biatch and complain. Don't worry, Rush will hold your hand and make it all better. Unlike those liberal jerks, he's not going anywhere. He'll be jerking it up until he dies.

Oh look, here's a mouth-breather that thinks assholishness DOES fall on political lines, and he's on the morally superior side.

O'Reilly learned one important rule: Dont shiat where you eat.
