Keith Olbermann Is Still Alive! His First Tweet From Exile!
On Friday afternoon, our beloved MNSBC host Keith Olbermann was suspended without pay because he gave three political contributions to three different candidates during the 2010 midterm elections without letting his bosses know beforehand. As a policy, NBC News does not allow hosts to give political contributions without prior consent from the head honchos.
The suspension of Keith has started an online movement, with a petition signed by over 150,000 people and a facebook page with close to 14,000 members advocating for the re-instatement of Keith! Also, our man, Russell Simmons released a statement late Friday night supporting Keith and recognizing the importance of his voice during this very difficult time with the Republicans winning back the majoirity in the House.
Having been silent since Friday, Keith has broken it by sending out his first tweet. On to the NEXT ONE to see what Keith had to say. #TeamKeith
