"Keith Olbermann" now #2 trending on Twitter. Sample:

@ericfadden Gotta love the new campaign contribution rules. Keith Olbermann donates as a citizen and gets suspended. A corp can give & remain nameless.

@shortforemily What the fuck. Rupert Murdoch can donate to candidates but Keith Olbermann can't? America, you fail so hard.

1. Shortly After Major Bush Donor Takes Over MSNBC, Network Selectively Applies Rules To Suspend Olberm

Media Matter's Eric Hananoki notes that MSNBC host Joe Scarborough gave a local Alabama Republican candidate $5,000 this April, and CNBC host Larry Kudlow donated $1,000 to Republican Chris Shays in May of 2009. Indeed, Kudlow also serves on the Leadership Council to the Club for Growth, a group that has donated over $2 million to Republican candidates this year.
