He made a big stink about how unfair it was that Hannity got to donate to Republicans but he didn't get to donate to his guests.
As a journalist, his lack of ethics and whining that because others were unethical he should be allowed to as well, it disgusted me. But then Olbermann has managed to get fired from every job he's had, always blaming everyone but himself.
When everyone around you is the asshole, you need to look in the mirror.
