Olbermann bans leftist columnist from his little-watched MSNBC show

Seriously, how nuts does the hypersensitive Blathermann have to be in order to reflexively ban a a columnist who has routinely written some moonbattery-laced op-eds in the last five years or so?  From NRO:

According to Olbermann’s post on The Daily Kos (how perfectly appropriate), it seems Milbank notified Olbermann that after four years of appearing with him, Milbank accepted another television offer. Olbermann was apparently irate about a column by Milbank last week that created difficulty for Barack Obama, and therefore banned Milbank from his program. Olbermann alleges that Milbank took a comment by Obama out of context (readers can decide for themselves whether that is in fact a fair charge) and would not explain himself. And so Dana Milbank, who after four years of playing up to Olbermann deigned to write a single critical column on The Great Obama, was quickly censured. Such are the exacting journalistic standards of Olbermann, and, apparently, the network for which he works.

My sources say that both of Olbermann’s viewers are disappointed to see Milbank go.

    Sheesh, Crush – his wife and kid were sorry to see Milbank go? That’s rough!

  2. Didn’t you get the memo? According to The Grand-Bringer-Of-Change, if you dare question him or his motives, you are automatically a proxy for McCain. Gotta love those demo☭crats! To them, “bias” is only negative questions or analysis of The Great One.

  4. It reminds me,

    One of the first things Clinton did in ’93 when he became President was move many members of the press out of the White House and also severely limited access to the president as well, as compared to the considerably open Bush (41) and Reagan admins.

    If Clinton was willing to do that to his friends in the media in ’93, what will Obama possibly do in ’09 if he wins to those who mildly take not of inconsistencies?
