MSNBC Talking Heads Feuding More Than Usual: Democratic Convention Acts Like a Pressure-Relief Valve

For some time I've been watching the Bill O'Reilly (FoxNews) vs. Keith Olbermann (MSNBC) feud as the two personalities took potshots at one another on their respective shows.

But I didn't see the on-air Joe Scarborough vs. David Schuster spat or Keith Olbermann open-mike commentary during a Scarborough report during last night's Democratic National Convention. It's facinating that these kinds of eruptions happen during live coverage of an event, or even in the studios themselves. The Geraldo Riviera vs. Bill O'Reilly confrontation last year was pretty wild, too.

Will MSNBC react to this exchange, or will they waffle and let things stand?
