Speculation grew when he sent the Hollywood Reporter a statement claiming "unacceptable conditions" kept him from attending. The anchor, who has a bit of a hot head reputation after being fired from FoxSportsNet and his abrupt departure from MSNBC, didn't stop there. He later started a <a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2012/01/now-its-keith-olbermann-vs-the-new-york-times-.html" target="blank">Twitter feud</a> with New York Times reporter Brian Stelter, claiming he tried to threaten him into commenting for the record. Stelter denied the accusations.
