Developing: MSNBC is giving regular "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" fill-in host Lawrence O'Donnell the 10 p.m. hour, the network says.
O'Donnell will start developing the program immediately, though no format, title or start date has been set.
"Lawrence O'Donnell is an incredible talent, who our audience has gotten to know throughout the years, most recently as Keith Olbermann's principal guest host on 'Countdown.' It's great to have another anchor of his caliber on the network," said MSNBC president Phil Griffin in a statement. "This makes us a bigger and better network."
"I've had a part-time job at MSNBC for 14 years," said O'Donnell in a statement. "Now that the network and I have gotten to know each other, I'm thrilled to be going full time."
When O'Donnell's show starts, the 10 p.m. rerun of "Countdown" will move to 11 p.m..
The move is a surprising one, as MSNBC has said as recently as October that it was happy with how the "Countdown" repeats have bee performing at 10 p.m.
Still, both CNN and Fox News have originals at 10 p.m., so rumors of an expansion into that hour are nothing new to MSNBC.
Creepy
Liar

No name? How about “Whiny Little Bitch”?!
Well that should stop that ratings slide dead in its tracks...
Wonder what they pay these guys for attracting audiences of under 10,000 viewers?
Scraping bottom of barrel.
CREEPY LIAR!!!(spit, drool, spittle)
Will both of Keith’s viewers follow him to that time slot?
Is he Nora’s dad?
I’ve always found Lawrence to be fair and unbiased. He’s almost as good a journalist as Olberman, and as unbiased and clear thinking as Helen Thomas. Bravo MSNBC!
One psycho after another. O’Donnell is on another planet, and a fanatic ultra leftist, and invariably factually wrong on topics and data which don’t fit that end point.
It just gets worse.
