Keith Olbermann<\/strong> must have one HECK of an agent.<\/p>\n

Despite being pretty much a one-trick pony, playing the not-too-rare angry liberal, Olbermann has been on more TV channels than Oprah Winfrey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In fact, OWN<\/em>, Oprah Winfrey’s flagging network, might be one of the few places left for the ex-ESPN Sportscenter<\/em> star to land after his firing from the Current channel.<\/p>\n

In case you don’t know, and you wouldn’t be alone, Current<\/em> is the channel owned by bloviating ex-VP Al Gore<\/em> … he of the false global warming warnings while flying around in a jet.<\/p>\n

Keith Olbermann<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Either he can work for Oprah, or perhaps co-host Dan Rather’s<\/strong> news program on Mark Cuban’s<\/strong>\u00a0HDNet<\/em>. Imagine those two HUGE egos on one program!<\/p>\n

OK, I’m usually not this mean, but Olbermann was just that way to President Bush, aned much worse in fact on the channel that NBC<\/em> either better manage or cut loose: MSNBC<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Sean Hannity<\/strong> is funny, but tough, on NBC anchor Brian Williams when he asks “Are you proud of your network?”.<\/p>\n

Getting back to Olbermann, who could be proud of his hire, or re-hire, should be resurface again?<\/p>\n
