Maybe you remember Keith Olbermann from the show Countdown, which ran for several years on cable news’ MSNBC? These days, of course, Olbermann’s perhaps best known as the “The Proprietor” of a new Twitter-based news organization called the “FOK News Channel. At least, he’s been billing himself that way since, well, yesterday.
Olbermann, boasting a loyal group of over 208,000 Twitter followers, is clearly showing every sign of leveraging his tweets.
The sidelined star added a second Twitter account ahead of Tuesday’s State of the Union address, dubbing it “FOKNewsChannel” and quickly attracting more than 18,000 followers (or “Friends of Keith,” hence FOK). According to the account’s bio line, FOKNews can be described this way: “Smokestacks Belching News On Twitter Since January 2011.”

Sounds like what he’s going to do next is cover himself with tatoos, get numerous body piercings, and buy a chopper.
Olber woman = twit head
Dancing around that copyright/trademark and wth his history they may be able to nail him on it?I’d love to see Keithy have every dime he’’s made be taken up with legal fees and fines.
Sounds like someone who launched the “O’Franken Factor”.
...and finance it all by working on the weekend shift at a local coffee house. Of course, until then he’s probably still got lots of severance pay to blow on hard drugs.
I see what you did there, Keefie... it’s almost “FOX” and it’s also almost a dirty word. You clever little devil, you.
Stick a FOK in Keithie, he’s done…
Suuuuurrrrrrrpppppprrrrrriiiiiiiiiiissssssssseeee!
This guy is so FOKed up..., what else was he going to do.
You may want to recheck your spelling.
I’ll wait for someone else to let me know what his FOKing tweets say.
In the Saul Alinsky sense. In other words, the Christian sense.
His continued obsession with FNC is the reason MSDNC canned him, and his 8th grade insults and creepy obsession continues.
Fact it, Keith - you will never, ever achieve the ratings FNC does.
“Red Eye” one of the best shows on TV that is broacast on FNC in the middle of the night, draws better ratings than KOs childish rants.
I expect to be reading about him checking into a hospital soon due to “exhaustion”
Name differentiation may be too weak to hold up in a court of law.
