Keith Olbermann calls for AP reporters to be fired after Trump article

Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann attacked the Associated Press on Friday morning after the outlet published a story about former President Trump's visit with Republican lawmakers this week.

"Fire everybody," Olbermann posted on X in response to the AP describing Trump's return as "triumphant" in a Thursday article headlined, "Cheers, cake and a fist-bump from GOP as Trump returns to Capitol Hill in a first since Jan. 6 riot."

"I am surprised to find that the Associated Press is still in business today after it published this wanton, biased, compromised, prostituted, unsurvivable pile of Trump-sucking propaganda yesterday," Olbermann wrote.

"Goebbels would have been embarrassed," the ex-MSNBC host added, referring to Adolf Hitler's propaganda minister.

The AP also wrote that Trump was "embraced by energized House and Senate Republicans who find themselves reinvigorated by his bid to retake the White House."

Disgusting. There's no way they'll just let go of him after he loses in November. Addicts, all.

He's not wrong, but if there's anyone who knows about getting fired, it's Keith Olbermann.

How many media jobs has Keith Olbermann been fired from?

I have lost count.

Keith Olbermann is a great big asshole, but he is usually right, as he is in this case.

He's nuts.

R5, Keith has been fired from ESPN (twice), MSNBC (twice), Fox Sports, CNN, Current TV, and that's not including the local stations he's worked at.

I think he's hot and definitely has BDE.

Yes Keith, the entire service should be shut down because you didn't like one story.

He's just bitter because I dumped him.

by Anonymousreply 11June 15, 2024 6:50 PM

His opinion is spot on. However, his method of delivery is wacked-out.

Keith has got to be the most miserable old horse's ass in broadcasting
