I like the way he makes the Right's head explode. Spitfire of ATJ Mar 2015 #70

Assuming Keith would be open to it. Put Keith at 8 and move Chris Hayes back to weekends. stevenleser Mar 2015 #3

Oh yeah. Wasn't it great? blue neen Mar 2015 #17

MSNBC has been going downhill ever since Olbermann left George II Mar 2015 #26

yes MFM008 Mar 2015 #46

He left right before the Madison WI protests indivisibleman Mar 2015 #27

OH YEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHH!!!!! calimary Mar 2015 #36

they need to speak to the people Backwoodsrider Mar 2015 #37

I don't think Keith wants to go back. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #38

that was 2 years ago MFM008 Mar 2015 #44

And, maybe he doesn't feel differently. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #48

I also think pigs will fly before anyone hires KO to do politics after that CURRENT TV fiasco. MADem Mar 2015 #55

Al Gore and his partner didn't exactly behave very well there, either. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #57

Granholm showed up on election night. So did Cenk. KO didn't--so Gore had to take his seat. MADem Mar 2015 #60

You hate Keith. I get it. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #61

No--you don't get it, and your assessment is incorrect. MADem Mar 2015 #62

Yes. I do get it. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #63

Yes, it does--and Gore kept his. Olbermann's expectations were, shall we say, inflated. MADem Mar 2015 #64

You're welcome to believe whatever you wish. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #65

I watched Al Gore and Jennifer Granholm and Cenk do "his" show when he no-showed. MADem Mar 2015 #66

There are two sides to every story. GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #68

I don't know if that settlement was all that fat, or if "they" even paid it. MADem Mar 2015 #73

LOL!!! Love that back-handed "admission" there! GoCubsGo Mar 2015 #75

Gore et. al. believed that others--like KO--would put ideals first. MADem Mar 2015 #82

Why would Olbermann become one of Comcast's paid liars? AngryAmish Mar 2015 #39

He might come back if he was not a paid liars...let him do his thing.. movonne Mar 2015 #49

David Shuster asked him about this on Twitter. He hasn't responded yet. octoberlib Mar 2015 #56

That's the only way I'd watch that network again. truebrit71 Mar 2015 #58

Phil fire morning Joe before you go! Omaha Steve Mar 2015 #69

Is MSNBC going to last until 2016?? flamingdem Mar 2015 #71

I would like to see that happen. Say what you will, KO was a strong voice. n/t freshwest Mar 2015 #74

Bring back Keith and give Ron Reagan a show too! I love that guy. PearliePoo2 Mar 2015 #76

Heart be still! Bring back Countdown! Greybnk48 Mar 2015 #77

MSNBC should give us an actual liberal channel. The ratings would soar. Enthusiast Mar 2015 #78

Give Ron Reagan an hour in prime time! Mike Nelson Mar 2015 #79
