TVNewser has learned Donny Deutsch, who’d been filling in on the 3pmET hour this week on MSNBC, won’t be anchoring for the rest of the week after a segment yesterday seemed to criticize his colleague Keith Olbermann. This week, Deutsch has been calling his show “American the Angry.” Yesterday, he played a clip of various radio and TV talkers in all their anger — including Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Keith Olbermann. Adding insult to insult, Deutsch’s guest, radio talk show host Hugh Hewitt, then called Olbermann and Ed Schultz, “the biggest hate mongers on television.” Deutsch responded, “I’m not taking the side of either one.” TVNewser has learned MSNBC president Phil Griffin talked with Deutsch and the show’s producer and expressed his disappointment with the segment. Earlier: MSNBC Boss to Staff: “We Do Not Publicly Criticize Our Colleagues”It doesn’t take long for a tolerant, compassionate, free speech-loving liberal to attempt to deprive someone else of their livelihood just because their ears were bruised. Remember this when you see ol’ Keith pontificate.
