It's called Strategy people.
So how does Keith Olbermann's Ego keep his name at the forefront and garner press while taking a vacation time-off to be with his baseball column and Ebay ill-father. Easy people: start a media feud with a semi-famous sports writer. Unconventional, yes, normally The Ego likes to strike up and bat at a bigger media target, your Bill O'Reillys, Rupert Murdochs, etc. etc. But baseball season is coming up and it's time once again for the Ego to solidify his bonafides as The Sports Authority. So the Ego takes what he can get and it's this punk Simmons. And it's already paying off, see, comparisons to Howard Cosell! Ignore this one. It's from that little pesky website that Dan Abrams runs. All lies. And I don't know what this idiot is talking about, Keith Olbermann's Ego doesn't even own a horse. And Deadspin, just know that Deadspin is run by the same people who run Gawker. They are on the Enemy List. But look, they all mention the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego and that's what it's all about people: getting attention when The Ego can't be bothered with showing up to work is nursing a sick loved one. The Ego particularly likes it when people point out (quite rightly) that Simmons is doomed because to engage in a battle of wits you have to have them to begin with and the Ego is packing people. And obviously Keith Olbermann's Ego has won this pissing match because this little bitch Simmons has already cried uncle.

I'm sorry Keith's father is unresponsive, really and truly I am. But Katie Couric didn't take this much time off when her husband died. Is there something else going on? Contract renegotiations or something? This is just downright weird to take off this much time off when his Dad is just a few blocks away.
O'Donnell's ratings are pretty decent actually. If I were Keith I'd be worried about MSNBC just pulling the plug on me and giving the show to someone else a lot less high maintenance.
I just want 2 know if it's true that they don'tlive together anymore. It would explain his purchase of the 1-bdrm apartment late last year.
He didn't correct the Simmons guy about not living alone. He just corrected him re not owning cats. Hmmmm. Maybe the rumors are true that they're no longer together? Good for her if so. Now let's see how long she keeps her jobs at the weather channel and WNBC w/o his support.
I assumed that the one bedroom apt was for Katy to have her flings in, or for his dad to move into, before Keith knew he would be too sick to ever do that.
Anyway, if he'd mentioned after Simmons' twitter post that he and Katy actually were still together, it would have sounded defensive, and like he was just saying that because they really weren't. It would have opened him up to additional criticism, like, "yeah, your 26-year-old girlfriend, ya perve!" So I don't blame him for skipping that one entirely.
And, be that as it may, who says that even if they have split up, that she still does not have his support? This all could have been part of their agreement, you know.
