Seriously: WTF??!? This is a terrible look for MSNBC. Olbermann leaving is a huge blow for the network, IMHO. I love Laurence O’Donnell as much as the next liberal-leaning guy (pause), but he’s not Olbermann, at least not yet! They better pray Rachel Maddow doesn’t bolt too ‘cos, if she does, it’ll seriously be a wrap for them.

[note: watch the full video at that Shoq Value link below to see Keith throw his papers at the camera one last time – for some inexplicable reason MSNBC decided to edit the ending short in their ‘official’ clip above to omit that – WTF??! x2….]

Video: Mikhail Prokhorov announces that the Nets are no longer seeking a trade for Carmelo Anthony

I missed this when it happened but my man at work told me about it yesterday and then YN reminded me when I was just on his site checking some stuff out. Comedy! Don’t dude remind you of that Direct TV Russian Oligarch parody? “Opulence, I has it!”

Video: Did Fox News’ Neil Cavuto Try to Use the Tunisia Riots to ‘Pull a Palin’

Got the heads up on this one via The Colbert Report…

Could this conversation with Craig R. Smith, CEO of Swiss America trading Corp., not be considered some kind of incitement or should I just dismiss it as the ridiculous fear-mongering that it strikes me as? Or if it is actually the former (and with Fox News, you know you can never count that possibility out), have we not learned the lesson of the Giffords shooting? So much for bringing a more genteel and civil tone to our news media and politics….
