Tattood, body pierced, dope smoking, minimum wage earning, Associate degree in fine arts (or GED or dropouts), self loathing, still living at home, twerps I believe the more accurate description.
To: Terry Mross
That’s false. He was making at most $7 mil per year. And since NBCU terminated the last 2 years of his contract, he’s not making that kind of gravy anymore and it’s stipulated in the agreement that once one or both sides terminated the contract, they can’t work at another media outlet for the balance of the terminated contract. IOW, he’s out of work for the next two years.

We don't know if Comcast will let Keith make a deal with another network as part of an exit agreement, but it's a good bet he'll be benched for a minimum of 6 months, and probably longer.CNN said that Comcast terminated the contract and that Keith Olbermann under the terms of the agreement can't work at any other media outlet for the next two years (time remaining on the old contract).
Since he's been fired from places like ESPN, Fox Sports and CNN, I don't see very many options for him except perhaps progressive radio, which gets even less of an audience than MSBHO does.

Dan Patrick don’t like him. He’s said so many times on his radio show. Patrick is one of many from ESPN who said Olbermann was hard to work with.

The DUmmies are over there whining about how he should go over to the intarwebs and flap his lips there and what a good thing that would be.Yes, he would be one more of thousands and thousands of ignored bloggers.
The irrelevant becomes the insignificant.

He would fit well on Sirius Left (146). Mike Malloy without the shakes. However it would breach his MSNBC contract. He’s off the air for two years. I predict within two years he will be in a rubber room after being found on the street screaming in people’s faces like the lunatic he is.
