You say: “Ideologically, I’m not terribly opposed to what Olbermann does on his Countdown show but I’m not horribly impressed with Olbermann’s condescending and borderline insufferable brand of “humor”, smarminess and self-importance.”

I’m not so put off by Olbermann’s smarminess as I am by his obvious derangement. That dude keeps a weird look in his eye. I guess I’d compare it to rabies more than anything.

Nice hire, NBC.
