A weeklong anchoring stint on MSNBC by Donny Deutsch ended abruptly on Wednesday, and four people briefed on the decision said the cancellation stemmed from an unflattering mention of that channel’s No. 1 anchor, Keith Olbermann, a day earlier.
Mr. Deutsch had labeled his hour on MSNBC “America the Angry,” and Mr. Olbermann was shown briefly in a series of clips of media figures during a segment that pondered what role the media plays in fomenting the public’s anger. The four people briefed on MSNBC’s decision said Mr. Olbermann’s anger about the segment prompted the cancellation of the weeklong “America the Angry” series. […]
MSNBC should not have bothered with the decree, because the cat is out of the bag. Everyone knows Keith Olbermann is the angry white male of the leftwing. Heck even his own colleagues know it, even it they cannot say it.

Clifton, you must have a cast iron stomach to be able to listen and comment on MSNBC. Blessings on you for carrying that burden.
Olbermann DOES have an anger problem. Why shouldn't anyone say it? How angry would he get if someone pointed out that he frightens children with his outbursts?
This is freedom of speech and the press? Seems when the truth about the Pravda style that the lame stream media is unvailed, the first thing they do is vail it again. My, we are in dangerous times indeed.
I have never watched this show so I'm not sure who is who but this is an astonishing piece of "journalism." Why not say who they think is angry on the left and why ridicule the lady asking the question? Rolling eyes no less. Fear runs rampant on the left apparently.
