This is very scary. Read Glenn Greenwald's account, but essentially GE and NewsCorp -the parent companies of Fox News and MSNBC - felt that the O'Reilly/Olbermann feud was bad for business (GE and NewsCorp's ... NOT bad for the news networks) so the agreed to censor both guys .... and lo and behold, since they put the order out both Keith and Bill have been silent.
Corporate Censorship.
I know that news organizations censor their own - and have a point of view, or a slant - but it's pretty disturbing when a parent corporation has control over news content, and even more scary when 2 parent corporations get together to stifle competing news shows.
