After all, he dared to question The Sportscaster's blatant shilling for Barack Mugabe Obama.

At a forum on Sunday, when Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell called MSNBC "the official network of the Obama campaign," Brokaw said, "I think Keith has gone too far. I think Chris has gone too far."

Insiders say Olbermann is pushing to have Brokaw banned from the network and is also refusing to have centrist Time magazine columnist Mike Murphy on his show.

I'm not necessarily a fan of Tom Brokaw, but I do respect him as a journalist. To argue that his criticism of The Sportscaster should result in a ban from MSNBC is the ultimate proof of the megalomaniacal view that Olbermann has of himself and his importance -- and his slavish devotion to the Obama campaign.
