Reply #4: I agree that it may not be Keith Olbermann and the gang's place

to call out Pat Buchanan's racist history on air. It IS the place of the MSNBC management to not continue giving a forum to a guy that has a long and sordid history of racist statements and views. They were very quick to fire Imus as the article states so I am not sure why the double standard for Pat Buchanan. Olbermann is very quick to call out pundits on other networks when they have views similar to Pat's and you maybe right it may not be the forum to go after a fellow coworker but I think it is interesting that he doesn't hold the same standards for a guy that is just as hateful but he happens to be on the same network.
