From Keith Olbermann: I hate to put this on the record, but I'm really annoyed that Suzy has portrayed herself as this sweet bystander victim all the time. I swear on my niece's head that this is true. When those touch-and-go negotiations for her to stay in '96 ended, we were all working in a trailer while they rebuilt the newsroom, and Dan I were even sharing a computer. And one day she comes in and tells everybody—and I mean every on-air guy on the network was in this double-wide—"I'm leaving for Fox. It's been real." And as soon as she was out the door everybody stood and applauded. McQuade came over to me and said "Well at least her time here produced something positive. You get her computer. Two-and-a-half years later, maybe the day after I got to Fox, now she's leaving there to go back to Bristol and she sweeps through the news bullpen to say goodbye and damned but it doesn't happen again. She says her farewells and as soon as she's out of earshot, the row of writers stands up and starts applauding and cheering. deadspin.com
