Keith Olbermann is calling out the 'Real Time With Bill Maher' host for resuming his show amid the WGA strike: 'F--- you, Bill, you selfish and unfunny scumbag.'

He continued, "It has been five months, and it is time to bring people back to work. The writers have important issues that I sympathize with, and hope they are addressed to their satisfaction, but they are not the only people with issues, problems, and concerns."

He wrote that while he hoped the strike would be finished by Labor Day, "that day has come and gone, and there still seems to be nothing happening." "I love my writers, I am one of them, but I'm not prepared to lose an entire year and see so many below-the-line people suffer so much," he said, adding that he would "honor the spirit of the strike" by going forth without his usual monologue, desk pieces, New Rules segment, or other editorials.Maher finished his post by writing, "The show I will be doing without my writers will not be as good as our normal show, full stop.
