Olbermann began his political show as a way to respond to what he saw as right-wing propoganda being portrayed as news on Fox News. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for him to become the very thing he detested, but on the other side of the political spectrum.
While I really enjoy him calling out the hyper-partisan Fox News and right-wing radio 'commetators' and pointing out the flaws in their arguments, I really don't enjoy when he makes his own hyper-partisan left wing commentary, which has evolved to the point where it now dominates his show.
I believe this is the second time Olbermann has been suspended. If I'm not mistaken he got into it with Joe Scarborough during the 2008 Republican National convention when, after Scarborough finished a particular synopsis of events Olberman, on air, told him to "get a shovel".
Hopefully he's back soon and remembers that you don't fight fire with fire, you fight it with water.
