Keith Olbermann Blasted for Kirk 'Burn in Hell' Comment
"Keith Olbermann is facing backlash on social media after attacking conservative activist Charlie Kirk just days after his death. Olbermann, a former MSNBC host, took to X to blast Sinclair Broadcast Group, which owns hundreds of stations across the country, over their reaction to late-night host Jimmy Kimmel being indefinitely suspended. Kimmel's show was pulled following comments about Kirk's suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson. Burn in hell, Sinclair, Olbermann wrote. Alongside Charlie Kirk."
"The message was in response to Sinclair calling for ABC to air a Charlie Kirk remembrance special in Kimmel's time slot. The group also called for an apology from Kimmel to Kirk's family. The company said they refuse to air Kimmel's show until they are confident appropriate steps have been taken to uphold the standards expected of a national broadcast platform."
"You know when you get dog shit on your shoe and everyone smells it and you clean your shoe and scrub it. Keith, you are already living in Hell. Old, unemployed, irrelevant. Fired from every job you ever had. Unmarried and childless. Spending your final years alone, shitposting into the void, begging to be noticed. When you die you will leave behind no legacy and there will be nobody https://t.co/WUzQjiSp98"
