Comcast and msnbc suspended Keith Olbermann today for an indefinite period of time. Mr. Olbermann donated his own money to Democratic campaigns. msnbc says this violates his contract which apparently requires employees to ask permission to make such donations of their own money. It seems that corporations and foreign countries can make donations but msnbc must ask permission. This is Un-American and seems unconstitutional. BOYCOTT msnbc and NBC News until Mr. Olbermann is reinstated and Phil Griffin issues a public apology. Please show your support of Keith Olbermann by signing this petition.
