Is Rachel going to rationalize Olby's termination. I'm sure it's Fox's fault as well. :)

@BadLuck765 - I don't know what to tell you then. You live in absolute blind denial if you think MSNBC doesn't endorse every dem out there, and critisize every republican. Look at Maddow here like I said; she can't even mention Palin without mocking her for having a "reality show". Or Maddow arogantly, and disgustingly stupid and childishly mocking John Boehner, when he quoted the preamble to the constitution, and she said "no, no, stop, it doesn't have a preamble!". Elietist moron on display.

@shreddog35 Now wait a minute, their hatred of the far right and the vitriol on the right isn't the same thing as endorsing a political party. She's a liberal. She admits to being a liberal. She has never said "vote this way" or "support this person". Fox has at least two 2012 republican presidential hopefuls on its freaking payroll. MSNBC leans left. MSNBC is not a democratic supporting network, and they criticize Democrats a ~lot~. They happen to criticize republicans more. Rightly so.

@BadLuck765 - The fact that she does this whole piece with a straight face, under the premise that she never endorses ANY candidate or party, shows total dishonesty. To say point blank that MSNBC is not a political channel and that Olberman is a hero for "exposing" FOX for carrying the water for republicans? Thats almost insane. She can't even mention Palin in this piece without taking a jab at her about her TLC show, saying "I think it's a...reality show?..." MSNBC=DNC, FOX=RNC,INDEPENDANT

[Masonsky123]

So future candidates are employees of fox news corp and when they get elected they are still fox news employees. Is there still a untainted democracy in this country?

[BadLuck765]

People, look, you may hate her, you may love her (as I do), but if nothing else... if NOTHING else... can we not at least agree that her point is accurate? Every word she said is true?

[Yetanotherytuser]

Damn, she's good.

She spins Keith's suspension into a political campaign against fox news and their endorsements.

Thank you for remembering me why I don't watch news channels.

It would have been nice to know Keith Olbermann didn't donate money to the Democratic Party. I would have had a lot more respect for Olbermann if this were the truth. If those are the rules of MSNBC and they are explained to and agreed to by show hosts, then Olbermann should be suspended. Whatever rules Fox News sets for its hosts are the rules of Fox News.  Maddow acting like this is a double standard is missing the point.
