Keith Olbermann
Olbermann is certifiably insane. The disturbing stories of him at ESPN, his multiple deranged relationships with women, his complete lack of control of his temper, and his sick views of America make liberals look absolutely ridiculous for worshipping him as they do.
He has become the face of liberalism, much like Rush is for conservatism. That's not good for Democrats, because this guy is capable of doing just about anything. He has no self control.
This guy very well might off himself one day. I'd call it 50/50.
Griffin, who had been friends with Olbermann since they first worked together at CNN three decades ago, pleaded for understanding. Olbermann had had a difficult year, a difficult few years, in fact. He was critical to the network’s success, Griffin said, but his personal problems were affecting his work and he looked angrier on the air. They wanted the Good Keith back, the clever, smart, ironic anchor. Their new client had to stop fighting management on every little thing.
Even those who admired Olbermann’s broadcasting skills felt that his behavior, such as making his staff leave notes outside his door rather than speaking to him, had gone too far. He was a royal pain, they said, and management had become exhausted trying to rein him in.
Relations are so strained that Olbermann has not spoken directly with Capus or Griffin since the donations controversy erupted. While he is halfway through a four-year, $30 million contract, Olbermann has become, in the words of one staffer, “a man without a country.
