MSNBC would be within their rights if Olbermann signed a contract which explicitly prohibited contributions or contributions without disclosure. Ethically, journalists should disclose to the public if they interview someone to whom they've contributed money. Without any of those circumstances, then I don't have a problem with an individual making political contributions.
