I stopped watching Keith when his "special comments" started sounding more and more like Rush. But that aside I figure this to be a result of the Comcast take over. My guess is they called him into a meeting and gave him guidelines of what he could and couldn't do/say and he told them to stick it. Maybe he thought he was "too big to fail" or maybe he simply thinks he's doing the right thing and refused to back down. Either way I'm betting they fired him.
Wonder what/where he'll go now? I can't see him being picked up by another network. MSNBC is alone in it's open left leaning. Any other network wouldn't touch him is my guess. I don't think he can be on any air until the fall, I read MSNBC is still paying him until then. Maybe he'll end up at some on-line news source or perhaps he'll take his money and retire from public life or the complete opposite.. run for office. Whatever he ends up doing I doubt it pays him 15 mil. a year.
