Subject: RE: Hillary's Offensive, Dangerous Comment
Keith Olbermann is a professional baseball card collector with a degree in "communications arts".

In 1992, he joined ESPN's SportsCenter, a position he held until 1997. He often co-hosted SportsCenter with Dan Patrick, the two becoming a popular anchor team.

He was painful to watch even then, launching into rants and engaging in gratuitous insults aimed at professionl athletes. Now he does the same to politicians.

...drawn out feud between Olbermann and ESPN. Between 1997 and 2007 incidents between the two sides included Olbermann publishing an essay on Salon.com in November of 2002 entitled "Mea Culpa" in which he conceded that his own insecurities and neurotic behavior had led to many of his problems at work.

However, he is essentially correct in "calling" Hillary on this gaffe, but so is everybody else, and doing it in a more reasonable manor than Keith "Nut Case" Olbermann.
