Dramatic Olbermann v. Daily Caller

|

Regular readers will thrill once again to our 13-second masterpiece above. The news hook? The Daily Caller's purchase of the the URL keitholbermann.com:

Keith Olbermann, host of MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann, has responded to the news that The Daily Caller has acquired the domain, KeithOlbermann.com.

In a tweet posted at 10:46 AM, the aging cable anchor wrote, "Regarding @TheDailyCaller and Keitholbermann.com: I hope whoever sold it to them got CASH."

Several minutes later, an apparently still-reeling Olbermann clarified his meaning: "Also regarding @TheDailyCaller and KeithOlbermann.com – the law's pretty clear on this, so, nice waste of money, Tuckie. #p2 #tcot."

The implication is that MSNBC, or Keith Olbermann personally, will pursue legal action to stop the dissemination of news and information on The Daily Caller.

Not so fast, responded Tucker Carlson, editor-in-chief of The Daily Caller. "Some might step back and allow Mr. Olbermann to drain his bladder on the first amendment – indeed, on the Bill of Rights itself," said Carlson. "Not us. No, by God, not us."
