Olbermann Returns To TV

After a nasty legal battle with his former employer, Current TV, Keith Olberman is getting back to his roots: sports coverage. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the former MSNBC and Current anchor will be heading up TBS’s coverage of the baseball playoffs this October. Olbermann, who is a huge baseball fan with an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the game, began his career covering sports for CNN in 1981 and later became one of ESPN’s first SportsCenter anchors. His latest gig will have him covering basball with Dennis Eckersley in Atlanta. Olberman has proven to be a difficult employee, sparring with his bosses at Current, MSNBC, ESPN, and Fox Sports Network.
