Keith Olbermann looking for a replacement. [View all]

On Monday's podcast, Keith hinted that he would be ending his "Countdown" podcast in January.
He was suggesting that someone much younger should take up the fight.
I believe he said he would help that person get started.

And if I recall correctly, Keith said that his name was on a "list".
I'm guessing that's at least one of the reasons for the January deadline.

Keith has had an extraordinary show. He has had info when no one else has had it.
Or he surmised/inferred things that had eventually supported his guesses.

The resistance will need someone like him.

If he's willing to help you get started, that's an offer I wouldn't refuse (if I were half my age).
