In 1998, anchor Keith Olbermann briefly left MSNBC before returning to the network for the now-defunct Countdown. Olbermann blamed the show’s frequent coverage of the Monica Lewinsky coverage for his leave. He said it gave him “dry heaves” and would “make me ashamed, make me depressed, make me cry,” according to USA Today.
