1. He'll be fine.

He'll get a multi-million $ deal somewhere and be just fine.

[Snake Alchemist]

3. ROFL. nt

[TheWraith]

17. I doubt it. There's no more networks.

CNN isn't going to take him. Bridges have been burned with MSNBC and Current. Where else is he going to go?

He'll be fine, since he's ridiculously wealthy, but I doubt he's going to be on TV in any real way again.

[bigwillq]

19. As I said, he'll be fine.

He's a smart man. I am sure he will find something to do with his professional life.

2. It sounds like his talent has become overshadowed by his ego.

I loved Countdown, but it is becoming increasingly obvious that no network is going to want to put up with his entitlement issues.

I just wish he would settle this out of the limelight. He is going to bring immeasurable harm to progressive programming. And, he risks even MOST unflattering details being released.

4. Most of America doesn't give a shit what happens to him

And I agree with most of America. He can go be the top TV personality in Bumfuck Egypt as far as I'm concerned.

You have to be skeptical of any article that appears on Yahoo but if even half of was in that link is true it confirms my opinion that Olbermann is a miserable human being with no regard for anyone who works for, with, or over him.

His show was a bright spot in the day for a lot of us back in the Bush era. But he needs to grow up and deal with life as it is, not how he wants it to be.

6. You do know that most of his staff went with him

from MSNBC to Current, right?

Apparently, he has some regard for the people who work for him.

BTW, most of the TV personalities on either network are pretty whiny, if you ask me.

7. Yet they are able to hold jobs

And go to work, Something is different here.

[Logical]

13. LOL......you are a caring soul I can tell. Very progressive of you. n-t

[dems_rightnow]

5. Probably radio

I suspect getting a network to offer him something is a stretch. He's pretty much radioactive right now.

[Swamp Lover]

8. Done.

He is as likely as Weiner to make a comeback.

[richmwill]

9. I could see him doing something similar to what Glenn Beck did...

(Gee, never thought I'd say THAT sentence, haha). But seriously- I could see Keith starting up his own news network, either online or to streaming set-top boxes like Roku. That way- he could be his own boss, and he could get his message out. I know the costs to start this up would be enormous, so maybe charging a small subscription fee and getting some sponsors could get it done.

10. Keith has a talent for burning bridges behind him.

[msongs]

11. he can go back to being a sports reporter on KNX lol nt

[warrior1]

12. Keith's new gig?

http://twitpic.com/947nn5

CEO of Globalgrind.

[provis99]

14. there's always public access...

at least, until he causes a stink there and gets fired from public access, too.

[backscatter712]

15. Web show?

Keith could self-finance a web show. And he'd be free to do whatever he wanted there.

[backscatter712]

16. Also, he still has his ESPN gig.

Looks like he's probably back to doing baseball for a while.

[cherokeeprogressive]

18. My BIL is a friend of his agent. I can safely say here: he's in negotiations with two

TV stations. One in Portland, and one in Boise.

He's going to read the weather.

[GoCubsGo]

20. "According to Mediaite"...

Is that the same Mediaite that's run by Dan Abrams, who hates Keith? Lots of allegations from unnamed people in that article, but no actual facts.

[Raine]

21. Types like KO always land on their feet but leave wreckage behind them

that others have to deal with.

[Cleita]

22. I think he should concentrate on writing articles and books.

He can work at home and all he needs is a literary agent to get his work published. He is already established as a writer and he won't have to work for anyone other than himself. Some people can't and shouldn't work for or with other people.
