UPDATE: Olbermann Reinstated.
Keith Olbermann returns to MSNBC on Tuesday
Well that was fast! MSNBC president Phil Griffin announced Sunday night that "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann will return to the air on Tuesday. The announcement comes just two days after he was suspended "indefinitely" for contributing to three 2010 candidates without prior consent from the network.
"After several days of deliberation and discussion, I have determined that suspending Keith through and including Monday night's program is an appropriate punishment for his violation of our policy," Griffin said in a statement. "We look forward to having him back on the air Tuesday night."

Two days?
Hell, I've had erections that lasted longer.
Welcome back and all, KO, but now what am I supposed to do with two warehouses full of "Lean Forward" parody posters?

Two days?!?
OK, we get the point (!) but there's no need to stretch (!!) the truth THAT far.

It is rare that I get humor, my dad said I was born without a funny bone. But I try and sometimes I find humor in Red Eye. That of fatigue makes me giddy. I agree with “writer” did they not know that Olbermann was a democrat, it is hard to imagine that over the years Keith never gave to a candidate.
It come’s down to appearance. Also, NBC seems to find difficulty with their very unbiased sister network. Griffin wanted to look strong, that they would bust someone’s chops as opposed to FOXNEWS that hasn’t the same mandate of their talent. Although April 15 Hannity’s show was canceled from a teaparty event it blurred the issue and Hannity was also promoting his book etc.
I watched a bit of Maddow last night, and she addressed Keith’s suspension, oops NO, she addressed FOXNEWS at nauseam, showing all their questionable talent, money and contributors. How the hell does MSNBC always go to FOXNEWS before addressing their own misdeeds, Ms Maddow stick is getting really old.
Come to momma!
Ms Maddow stick? Just because Drifty mentioned a 2 day+ boner? Very odd. Very, very odd.
I think you mean DR. Maddow. Truth a bit much for you eh? Funny how Anderson cooper picked her "stick" on the "$200Million/day Inda trip". Someone is watching enough to copy her story on another network.
Jesus - and I was impressed by your writing! (Doesn't that produce painful chafing? Hasn't your Mom warned you about this?)
