Did I miss the "Olbermann gets an envelope filled with white powder" thread?

    Your wife have cancer? Go to the hospital, break the news to her that the divorce is in the pipeline,
    and walk right out . . .

    Olbermann was interfering with the Post's message that liberals are a bigger danger to national security than al-Qaida. Somebody had to pay. Olbermann was a convenient target.

    The funny thing is, Olbermann has become a creation of Fox News. The "fair and balanced" network decided it would be a really good idea if its news anchors turned into op-ed columnists at the end of a broadcast, so Cavuto, Gibson, Hume, etc., established themselves as conservative pundits who happen to read the news. The concept clearly worked, so Olbermann (not to mention Lou Dobbs) jumped on it. So now Olbermann's doing a fair amount of these "special comments," which are longer, more pointed and exponentially better-written than anything the Fox crowd is doing. You reap what you sow.

    I thought the hatemonger who killed Alan Berg was sitting in a maximum security federal pen.

    No. I seem to remember that there was a civil trial that someone lost, but I don't think there were any criminal charges ever filed.
    If someone can clear this up, please do.
