Keith Olbermann's Ketchup Fit


The untimely demise of Tim Russert hit almost everyone at NBC hard. Then there was Keith Olbermann, who was more broken up by the condiment selection at the funeral than the death itself.

Olbermann, who broadcast from outside the Kennedy Center the day of the ceremony, reportedly went ballistic in front of mourners who were filing into the building. And why? No ketchup packets.

"This place is going to hell," Olbermann was heard to rant to his staffers. An NBC insider defended the fat-assed liberal pussy however, saying, "Keith did not have lunch at the Kennedy Center and was not eating on the set because he was anchoring a broadcast."

Of course he didn't have lunch there...they didn't have ketchup. Keith Olbermann must have his ketchup!

The ketchup incident was only the capper on a rough couple of days for Keith. Reportedly, the bespectacled heart-attack risk and openly jealous rival of Bill O'Reilly got angry a few days earlier when he found out NBC had not sprung for a first-class train ticket, forcing him to drive to the funeral.

Russert dead. Carlin dead. Wide-load no-talent Keith Olbermann alive. Universe totally fucked up.
