RETHUGS set it up and Bruno did the rest.
Someone took a personal interest in his transaction.

10. one article says due to Olberman ratings
was in shock as just checked in when he said it was last show....googled news and found several re Olberman but strange as news released today and it's his last show? Saying he was offered analyst job... CNN so downhill....Piers Morgan is tabloid news and replacing Spitzer with general news program.

13. Sure he was
He was going after the wrong people, or to you and I the right people. Just like the morning show host on msnbc that got canned a couple years ago that opened up the spot that dead intern joe has now. When he started saying that bush needs to be impeached and cheney needs to be hung I knew and told my wife so that he won't be on m$nbc much longer and sure enough when he made the disparaging remarks about the girls he was gone. Damn I wish I could remember his name. Don Imus, there it is.

The assholes don't like to be called out for what they are and when they are they take drastic measures.

17. Maybe they are different ones
The one on BIO is "Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Elliot Spitzer". By filmmaker Alex Gibney.

Two and a half hours, so not the same.

16. Clearly they discovered his weakness

Joe Bruno is a scumbag
