Bill Maher to Olbermann: ‘What Happened to MSNBC?’

Bill Maher spoke to Keith Olbermann tonight and ended by asking him the big question: “What happened to MSNBC?”

Maher brought up the Democratic forum moderated by Rachel Maddow tonight and mentioned the network’s ratings troubles, asking if that’s in part due to Olbermann’s departure.

Olbermann mockingly took credit before saying he has no idea and admitted it would be unfair to his friends at the network to speculate further on why they’re suffering.

He did posit that a lot of it might have to do with cord-cutting because, as he said, liberals are all about embracing science and new technology.
