11. I like catching him on DU.
Make it a point of seeing his videos whenever I can since I know I can't find them anywhere else.

22. Late Spring (soon) on CurrentTV Cable Network
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_TV">CurrentTV is "only" available in 60 million households. And may or may not be available to "basic" service.

On February 8, 2011, Keith Olbermann, the former host of MSNBC's top rated program, Countdown with Keith Olbermann, announced he was joining Current as its Chief News Officer and as a stakeholder. <16> Olbermann will host an hour long primetime news program on Current, beginning some time in late spring of 2011. The new show will air at 8 PM Eastern -- the same time slot as his old MSNBC show. <17> Olbermann will also be heavily involved in the development of the rest of the network's news programming.


In addition, Olbermann has promised (via twitter) a large online "platform." Which one would presume would mean the bulk of the Big Show, plus added content and "web exclusives."

In other words, stuff easily linked to from DU.

29. Current TV Co-Founder talks About Keith Olbermann's New Show
As it readies for the debut of the Keith Olbermann show, Current TV is building a studio in Manhattan, says co-founder Joel Hyatt in this interview with Beet.TV.

The San Francisco-based cable network has its primary broadcast studio in Los Angeles. Although Current maintains business operations in New York, this would be its first studio.

5. Beautiful
Keith is so smart and funny.

Nice to have him kind of back in any way shape or form.

By the way, Keith, how about a review of Chris Elliot's kind of new 15 minute Cop show "Braveheart"?

It's 20 minutes of TV fun packed into 15! (And it's authentic second generation "Bob and Ray" humor besides)

You mean "Eagleheart"...and it is pretty good.

I love "Children's Hospital" too. It's just so WRONG! And hysterical.

Long Live Adultswim!

Yeah - that should be the last thing he utters every night at the closing of his new show.

19. That was
That was Edward R. Murrow's sign off back in his day.

I always found it comforting and inspiring when Keith used it.

Plus it was historical.

He can use the new one for special occasions, though.

21. I miss the guy
and his humor and cutting quips.

I am glad to see he is still available somewhere.

Trump may be on top now, but he has little chance in Iowa unless they purge the Republican party of moderates...oh hell, that's already happening.

Peace,
Tex Shelters

28. FOK 'em all....
Honestly though, I have been inspired (once again) by this returning politician called "Candidate Obama."
Even though we have had almost 2 1/2 years of (his evil twin brother, I think) as President Obama, and most of us have stood, mouth agape, as he continued Bush II policies and "caved" to almost all Rethug demands in the name of "bi-partisanship", his twin; Candidate Obama has been hard at work since he started campaigning. He has been pushing a progressive agenda, just like he promised when he ran for President in 2008. Although he has been absent since that election, I am really glad that he has reappeared for this election cycle and has discovered that he now has the power to actually get things done. "Rock on" Candidate Obama and I pray that even after this election cycle you will hang around for the next four years and inspire and move this country in a progressive direction. Maybe you can talk your evil twin into replacing his Goldman advisor's and budget director, etc.... too.

I am sure many President Obama supporters will dislike this post. I call 'em as I see "em. So, FOK you too.
