Edited on Mon Jan-24-11 08:05 PM by bleever
Keith's new tweet is up: http://twitter.com/@keitholbermann

It looks like an EDV sitting behind him on the left on his Twitter page.

2. Lawrence gave very gracious props to Keef at the top of the show,
and said he'd have more to say about it later on.

6. Hi Gigi and Cassie!
We're hanging in there. Andy's at work, and kinda blue - it's the anniversary of his friend's suicide. Like I said, he and I both had a hell of a year, even before we met.
The cats are hanging around, either wanting to cuddle or seeking treats. I suspect the latter. :)

How are you and Cassie doing? :hug::bounce::bounce:

Cassie was doing homework (I HOPE she's finished) and Freckles drying off from being outside. Oh and me...just playing on the "internets".

8. Reload the page, and it should show.
You don't have to be signed in to Twitter to read tweets.

:hi: Gotta keep a candle in the window til KO gets another venue.

And besides, there's all the liquor behind the bar that needs love and care.

12. Here's what Kathy Malloy has to say about Keith
http://www.mikemalloy.com/2011/01/24/greetings-from-exile/

“Greetings From Exile . . .
January 24th, 2011


. . . A quick, overwhelmed, stunned THANK YOU for support that feels like a global hug & obviously left me tweetless XO.”

Those two sentences mark the first public message from Keith Olbermann since his sudden departure from MSNBC last Friday and they came in a Tweet.

We may never know the reason Olbermann and MSNBC “amicably separated” after his very successful stint as host of “Countdown,” but there’s the usual ample speculation, which so frequently misses the mark in these situations. Most of it can be dismissed entirely, especially the claims of scores of right-wing bloggers who are crowing false victory cries over the apparent success of their personal efforts to remove Olbermann from the airwaves. (Case in point, when Mike Malloy was “amicably separated” from Air America, no blogger got it right. It wasn’t Mike’s stance on Israel, or a particular interview he conducted, or letter-writing campaign from various knuckle-draggers offended by his content and language, and it certainly wasn’t his ratings. It was allllll about the Benjamins.)
