Outspoken, left-leaning former cable news host Keith Olbermann turned his attention toward Twitter CEO Elon Musk on Friday and tried to dunk on Musk.
Musk on Friday replied to a post containing video of Jacob Chansley — the so-called “QAnon Shaman” — telling Jan. 6 protesters that then-President Donald Trump instructed them to go home and remain peaceful. In the aftermath, Chansley was sentenced to four years in prison.
Musk’s reply to the clip? “Free Jacob Chansley.”
When another Twitter user accused Musk of being part of the “MAGA movement,” Musk answered back that simply isn’t the case.
Then Olbermann took a turn, writing in response to Musk’s tweet: “Please remember to report this tweet for violating rules by denying a violent event.”
Musk picked up on Olbermann’s statement and delivered a stinging retort: “Have you considered a career in comedy?”
A presumably excited Olbermann couldn’t help himself and shot back at the Twitter CEO — but it appears ol’ Keith was firing blanks: “Have you considered a career in business?”
Other Twitter users however, were quickly to point out the obvious…that Musk is already considered a very successful businessman.
