After taking heat from some of his liberal fans on Twitter over his strong criticism of Pres. Barack Obama’s Oval Office speech Tuesday, Keith Olbermann stopped into another of his new media stomping grounds to find more of the same.
Now he’s leaving The Daily Kos after reading a “diary trashing first me and my colleague Rachel.”
Olbermann wrote a blog post, presumably his last for awhile, headlined “Check, Please”, as a response to the diary he found and one particular comment that insinuated his criticism came because attacking the President was good for ratings (a pretty strange notion when discussing MSNBC). “It can’t be verified because it’s nonsense, and it wasn’t checked because nobody bothered,” wrote Olbermann. “Unfortunately there’s been a lot of this here lately.”
According to Olbermann, this is symptomatic of a larger issue at the liberal site that he has been a part of for years now, and he’s ready to go his separate way:

Criticism? No you are wrong – You need to be flogged tarred and feathered – Little punk! Should of stayed with sports where at the very least you could not change the outcome of a game! I never liked Olberhead as a sports caster and have nothing but disdain for his politics! No one likes you Olbermann no one!!!
That isnt simply criticism – it is abject rejection!!

Hello,
Poor Keithy-Boy the Daily-KILLER does not like him anymore, and his ratings at MSNBC-(PUKE-MEDIA)-Are in the toilet, and they suck to high Heaven, and well I could just go on, and on, but it is not worth it. Because actually he is not worth talking about anymore. So I will stop right now.
he need 2 tak sum prozac an chill out is what he need 2 do!
keefer ogreman on pmsnbc, for once spoke the truth about uhblahmuh AND Rachel Madcow has also criticized obama. The daily loss isn't even good enough to wipe an a$$ on. AND 'tingle up my leg' pris crashews, on the same program with ogreman, also criticized the uhblahmuh speech. He now has a program, a series, which spread propaganda lies about the tea party movement. The format is a copy of Fox News series on uhblahmuhs ties to radicals and positive coverage of tea party protests. Their ratings are so low that they are trying to copy the best-rated network on air, Fox News.
Olberman, Matthews, Maddow, Ratigan, Couric, Williams, Sawyer, Viera, and a long list of other libtards should just wander off somewhere, commit suicide, and rid the country of vermin.
