You can read a little bit about it here.

Think that'll stop the talking heads from going on about the "liberal media"?

And more here:

Olbermann Split Came After Years of Tension

I get the feeling, based on the continuing lineup, that it wasn't his liberalism that ended his show. And it's not as though MSNBC was unaware of Oldermann's ratings. It really does look like it was mutual. Or that mostly he just wanted out. Time will tell, since no one is saying much.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

I am surprised only by the abrubtness of his departure, not the departure itself. He was pretty pissed of at MSNBC, I think, for a while now.
