As I understand it: Bill O's strategy was simple. Hit Olbermann where it hurts...the network owner's (General Electric) reputation. Apparently tt was G.E. who bowed to the pressure from O'Reilly and Fox and "demanded" for a truce internally. G.E. then "requested" the truce through top Fox executives. I believe this situation would qualify as "Corporate Censorship". If I have the above wrong, please correct the events to their more accurate depiction.
