Kieth Olbermann has never been on Imus. Why is that?

[NNN0LHI]

[RedStateShame]

1. His loyalties to Howard Stern are just too strong?

I keed, I keed.

[Cooley Hurd]

2. Because, if there's one thing Imus hates, it's...

...someone with talent. Pisses him off every time.;)

[NNN0LHI]

4. Now that is a good point that I had not considered

Strong women scare and intimidate Imus too. That I know.

9. That's exactly what I was thinking.

Talent is to Imus, what garlic is to a vampire. Bringing someone with talent on that turd of a show would only shine light on the fact that Imus is a worthless shit-bomb.

Plus, it would take time away from him giggling about Terry Bradshaw's country album he made 30 years ago.

11. Ding, ding, ding

You took my answer.

3. I've heard that Keith hates getting up early. NT

[WI_DEM]

5. maybe he has better things to do first thing in the morning than listen to the ramblings

of some half brain dead cowboy.

7. Half?

[Sugarcoated]

6. One of the few times I've watched that fossil

(and one of the last) I believe he said some nasty things about Keith and his show. I'm sorry I didn't retain the exact hateful diatribe.

[Garbo 2004]

16. Yeah, I too recall Imus trashing Olbermann. n/t

[BeyondGeography]

8. Keith isn't a suck-up

Which means he's not Imus' type.

[monmouth]

12. Keith is the new "star" at MSNBC, much too cool and savvy for Imus.

Imus is a Republican, still talking and moaning over the loss of Santorum, thrilled about Lieberman. He makes me ill. Tim Russert is a regular call-in, Jon Meacham, etc. Imus is a control freak, Keith would never play along. Wonder if Chris realizes Keith is so much more popular these days with viewers like he USED to be............

[H2O Man]

10. They are neither

friends nor fans of each other's style.

[Jon8503]

13. Keith is like me, would you get up that early in the am for him? N/T

[Demoiselle]

14. Imus hasn't asked him, because Imus is smart enough (barely) to know that...

Keith would eat his lunch.

[Catchawave]

15. Not sure....

Keith/Imus = oil/water ?
