is keith olbermann something else al gore screws up?

there's some weird shit going on at the current tv.  with olbermann missing in action and the twits working themselves up into a lather, there's a little bit of pissing match happening just out of earshot.  seriously, why do you go with keith olbermann to build you network and then fuck with him instead of just letting him do his job?  nice going al gore.  first joe lieberman loses you the presidency, now this.  i sense a pattern.
