Alternate headline: Deranged Lefty Interviews Ex-girlfriend Who Discloses Relationship With Another Deranged Lefty

It sure seems Katy Tur knows how to draw the crazies. Here's Keith Olberdork's ex-girlfriend talking to the nutty MSNBC crank and discussing the lunatic lefty who tried to slice and dice a Muslim cabbie in Manhattan the other night. In an interesting twist, it seems she was pretty much a pen pal with the thug Michael Enright.

Tur, a WNBC reporter who previously worked at NBCU’s Weather Channel was Keith Olbermann’s longtime girlfriend last May when she got the Weather Channel job. We can confirm they broke up more than a year ago, however. When Olbermann closed out the interview, he thanked his “dear friend” Tur.

Tur was on Countdown to describe a report she had been working on for WNBC. She had talked to the 21-year-old Michael Enright charged with attempted murder – five times recently, as he was trying to get publicity for the film he was working on. “The first time I spoke to this guy, I was struck by how incredibly polite he was,” said Tur. “He was, ‘Yes ma’am, no ma’am.’ Very polite on the phone. He wanted to get a point across about how he feels that soldiers really aren’t getting enough attention back in the United States.”

She also said she got an email recently from Enright after a story she reported on the Park51 Islamic Center. “I got an email from Mr. Enright, ‘Hey I really appreciate your story on the Mosque, I think you did a good job,” said Tur.

Keefy's ex comes on around 4:30 into the segment. I wasn't aware the two had broken up but it shouldn't be a surprise since his longest relationship has probably lasted about three weeks. Who the hell could stand to be around the insufferable oaf any longer than that?
