Sure the Penn state scandal was beyond horrendous but he is smack talking students who probably were not even attending PSU at the time for raising $13m towards pediatric cancer.
There will always be a negative stigma but can't PSU try and redeem themselves?

dumbass response. i'm all for attacking penn state for supporting their child molester enabling coach, but to respond to a tweet about raising money for pediatric cancer with a one word "pitiful" is fuckin stupid and weird.

The adults in charge of PSU at the time are fair game for life..Some college kids raising money for charity shouldn't have to answer to that bullshiit.

While it was petty and juvenile on Olbermann's part I also believe that ESPN has purposely turned this molehill into a mountain solely for its own publicity and ratings.
Every year ESPN seems to " suspend " or " punish " one of their talking heads and then makes a huge deal about it by patting themselves on the back in the media. Last year it was Simmons. Before Simmons it was Stephen A$$ Smith. It has now become merely a matter of when and not if they will suspend their next talking head. But don't worry, they will be very happy to tell us about it when they do.

I'm kind of a Keith fan. When he's good, he's really good - smart, different, funny When he's not, though (and I would suggest he's, um, really not in this case), he's just a train-wreck. I'm no psycholgist, but these don't sound like the actions of a guy who's in a healthy mental state. It's kind of like wrting a book trashing Mother Theresa and calling it Missionary Position. Oh wait, one of my favorite writers ever actually did that, but you get my point.

Yes, the annual suspension wheel finally stopped on Keith this time!
This is so true. ESPN pimps its brand in every possible way, including controversy and suspension. They want you to watch this edgy smut that they are going to allow on air once more.
Can't stand ESPN. Aside from live games, Cowherd and SVP/Rusillo, you can keep the rest of their lousy programming.

Olbermann was out of line but Penn State students, alums, etc. need to understand that their school - fairly or otherwise - will be branded by this for a thousand lifetimes. This wasn't paying recruits, lying to the NCAA, stealing a playbook, etc. This was irreparable real life damage to scores of children.
If you are a high school kid thinking about going to Penn State now, you should have your eyes wide open about this. Because this stain cannot be washed out.

The president of the university is under indictment, as are the vice-president and the athletic director. Sandusky will die in jail, a disgraced pervert. Paterno is dead. Continuing to dump on Penn State University and its students under these circumstances is cheap piling on, something that has been a hallmark of Olbermann for as long as he has been around. He is now and always has been a smug, unfunny, talentless, pile of feces. In other words, a typical ESPN hire.

Solid post. The business world is changing because of the internet and there is a need for everyone to adjust accordingly. Obermann will survive this. I agree when he's good its watchable entertainment.My issue with that too much "stuff" is just manufactured for personal attention,ratings and the assumed need to be competitive. Keith should be wise enough to pick his spots better than this.
