I didn't make it through the Hollywood Reporter story on Keith Olbermann. About a quarter of the way in, hearing Olbermann's loquacious drone from the page, only Ben Affleck came to mind. And I stopped caring about Keith Olbermann, despite sharing a considerable chunk of his ideological slant. The guy is a character. A Times Square artist's sketch where the head covers 2/3 of the page and the body only an inch. A cartoon.
In the same way Family Guy's humor took a hit in my mind after Southpark clubbed it with manatees, Affleck reminds folks too never take Keith Olbermann too seriously.
