CNBC published an article on Wednesday, where reporter Alex Sherman spoke with CNN boss Chris Licht about various subjects; nonetheless, Licht’s most prominent critic, Keith Olbermann, decided to take a shot at the network’s president.
Licht told CNBC why he took the position at CNN and also thinks some coverage of him has been “painfully inaccurate,” which may or not include what Olbermann has stated about Licht in the past.
However, that didn’t stop the former MSNBC host and current podcaster from taking yet another shot at his ex-colleague. Additionally, he revealed that Licht and “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough interfered with shows.
“If you would like to read what happens when @cnbc provides @cnn Hatchetman Chris Licht a forum to spout mindless Bothsidesism, THIS IS YOUR LUCKY DAY!” Olbermann said on Twitter on Wednesday.
“A reminder that when we were at @msnbc together and Licht interfered with other shows and he and @joenbc tried to get my guests banned, we all assumed Licht ate paste.”
Olbermann might have more to say about Licht after CNBC also revealed in the interview that CNN will reportedly experience more job cuts this year.
