KO was the one to allow the talented Rachel Maddow's "break". I loved her Air America morning radio show, but how many people knew of that network, or would continue to know about Rachel.
She's done the thing in journalism where you break all kinds of barriers. She's a talent, alright.

KO tweeted he doesn't watch MSNBC, and thus, "Hubris". That's a shame, if true.
