Keith O can't give a few grand to Dems, but his bosses can send a boatload of $$ to the GOP

[CreekDog]

sounds fair to suspend him.

:sarcasm:

1. He wasn't suspended for the donations

He was suspended for not getting approval for them, per NBC policy. Not much less BS, but at least it gives NBC cover against allegations of inconsistency. They can just claim all the others got approval.

3. But it was an NBC rule, not an MSNBC rule.

I wonder if Olbermann has legal grounds to sue?

2. NBC has a lovefest going with GOP personalities of late . . .

A Matt Lauer special with George W. Bush is coming up, and NBC is promoting it to death to make sure it's must-see TV for you & me. :puke:

Not to mention virtually constant airtime devoted to Mama Grizzly. :puke:

4. Look at Immlet's donations...
