Tweeting the Keith Olbermann Suspension
Keith Olbermann was suspended Friday afternoon by MSNBC brass for not telling them that he’d contributed to three democratic congressional candidates in the days leading up to the election — a violation of NBC News policy. The Twittersphere lit up after the news (Keith Olbermann is a trending topic in the U.S.).
Andrew Breitbart, conservative commentator:
Olbermann SUSPENDED from MSNBC Indefinitely Without Pay – for Dem Political Donations. (I’m beginning to think this guy is biased.)
Kirsten Powers, Fox News/Democratic analyst
Who cares if Keith Olbermann gave $ to dems? He’s an unabashed liberal; what’s the big shocker?
Felix Gillette, New York Observer

Prediction: @keitholbermann won’t go back to work at MSNBC after suspension.
