[edit] Childhood
Went to the private Hackley School in Tarrytown, New York, after psychological testing showed he would never survive public school with his bitchy, effeminate personality.
[edit] Education
A 1979 graduate of Cornell University, where he received a bachelor's degree in milking and bovine management, he spent his years there working at the campus radio station throwing things at the microphone, barely passing enough classes to graduate. His parents got a bargain, spending only $800 dollars per semester, instead of the $10,000 dollars that real Ivy League schools charge.
[edit] Television Career
Worked at KTLA and KCBS in Los Angeles in the late eighties as a sports anchor. Although Keith says he was made an "honorary Angeleno", no one in the Los Angeles area remembers him.
As co-host with Dan Patrick on ESPN's Sports Center from 1992 to 1997, Keith eventually flamed out when he discovered he could not control that show, the entire network and everybody in it. He was fired but pretended like he left of his own accord.
From 1998 to 2001, he was an anchor for Fox Sports Net, a minor subsidiary of FOX that no one watches. Rupert Murdoch fired him when Rupert's psychic told him that one day, Keith Olbermann would become NewsCorp's greatest enemy and drain on its revenues.
In March of 2003, Olbermann was awarded his own show Countdown, after finishing his super-secret radio/television probation. He had somehow managed to stay out of trouble long enough to be given another shot at the Big Time. Now that the Great Patriotic American George W. Bush is no longer president, Keith is waiting for the OK from MSNBC's newest Rock Star, Rachel Maddow, to begin a long-overdue retooling of his show for the Obama presidency. "Rache" thinks he isn't diverse or cool enough.
[edit] Appearance On The Report
Stephen Colbert interviewed (and was victorious over) Keith Olbermann on the March 14, 2006 edition of The Colbert Report. Olbermann was nailed by Stephen as a secret agent for Hillary Clinton.
