Channel 192 in Baltimore County.

Olbermann will be moving there sometime in the spring:

Keith Olbermann, the former MSNBC anchor, will host a prime time program for Current TV, the low-rated cable channel co-founded by Al Gore. The one-hour program will begin sometime in the spring.

Mr. Olbermann will also become the chief news officer for Current, the company said in a news release Tuesday.

“We are delighted to provide Keith with the independent platform and freedom that Current can, and does uniquely offer,” Mr. Gore said in a statement.

It appears that Olbermann will be getting an equity state in the network, which is probably most of his remuneration, it currently only draws about 60,000 viewers nationwide, and would therefore be very hard pressed to pay him a salary commensurate with his media profile.

He will also become “Chief News Officer,” whatever that means.

I kind of hope that it’s not what is normally called a “News Director,” as my sense is that this would not be a good use of his skills. A news director at a cable network is someone who has to manage ……… People like Keith.

Keith is any number of things, but a calming influence he is not.
