Keith Olbermann Panics After Issuing ‘You’re Next’ Threat to Scott Jennings
by David Lindfield
Former ESPN and MSNBC host Keith Olbermann is facing backlash after posting and then quickly deleting what appeared to be a direct threat against CNN’s conservative political commentator Scott Jennings.
Screenshots circulating online Monday evening show Olbermann replying to one of Jennings’ posts on X with the words, “You’re next, motherf***er.”
This was followed by, “But keep mugging to the camera.”
Amid the backlash, Olbermann appeared to panic as outrage quickly grew over his perceived threats.
The threatening remarks vanished from Olbermann’s account shortly after being posted.
However, the posts were deleted after screenshots were already taken of the remarks.
Jennings reposted the screenshots and tagged FBI Director Kash Patel.
Many are now calling for federal authorities to review the comments.
