“I haven’t laughed so much over anything since the hogs ate my kid brother.”

Current TV fires Keith Olbermann.

,,,the network was “founded on the values of respect, openness, collegiality, and loyalty to our viewers [and] these values are no longer reflected in our relationship with Keith Olbermann.”

Raise your hand if you didn’t see this coming the moment his hiring was announced. Oh, wait: Ray Charles could have seen this coming.

But it gets better. Would you like to know who is replacing Keith Olbermann? Why, none other than Eliot “Client Number 9” Spitzer himself!

And if you’d like to read Olbermann’s response, you can find it here.

    But are we really competing against each other, or are we united against the common enemy?

    Namely, FARK, who (as far as I can tell) still have not posted anything. Of course, they’re probably all drunk off their butts in Vegas and there’s no mods available to greenlight the story…

  2. They finally got to it at 9:02 PM.
