I'm surprised he lasted a year. The man is an insufferable arrogant derriere.

Current TV Dismisses Keith Olbermann - NYTimes.com

Quote:
Current TV said Friday afternoon that it had terminated the contract of its lead anchor Keith Olbermann, scarcely one year after he was hired to reboot the fledgling channel in his progressive political image.

Mr. Olbermann did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Current indicated that he had failed to honor the terms of his five-year, $50 million contract, giving the channel the right to terminate it.
Who in their right mind could ever think this far leftist frothing mad man would be worth $10 Million a year?

They didn't even give him the courtesy of signing off.

Since it appears he broke the contract by his childish, arrogant behavior, I don't think he would be entitled to any of that dough.

LOVE IT!

Oh well, at least they still have Algore.
Apparently, Client #9 will be taking over Olbermann's spot.

How DARE CurrentTV not cater to HIS programming whims and skipping shows.

Will be interesting (NOT) to see where he lands.....

OWN may have a spot for him in the washroom.

Baba WahWah may need a steward in the green room.

Then there's the nut farm Roseanne runs.

Oh the possibilities.

He will resurface somewhere else I'm sure. As the raging angry liberal that he is, he will find a backer that does not want to discuss issues either, but name call instead, like a classic liberal!!!

Sportscenter was covering some of the travan story when the Heat donned their hoodies. Maybe Olberman can resurrect his sportscasting days. LOL

That's what he should never have left in the first place. Now he can't go anywhere.

How does one get fired by a station with a 1960s UHF audience size? What is next, when you cannot cut it on such a .00001 star station? Ab flex voiceovers?
