Keith Olbermann fans finally have their date: June 20. That's when the former MSNBC anchor will return to the air, this time on Current TV, with a nightly show at 8pm EST. The name is easy to remember: Countdown With Keith Olbermann. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," he said on his "Fok News Channel" video channel, notes the Huffington Post. More details to come, though Olbermann promises the show be edgier than the MSNBC version and have a "huge footprint on the 'Net." (More Keith Olbermann stories.)
