Execs at network town hall meeting also tell staffers Brian Williams doesn’t want his own show
MSNBC president Phil Griffin poured cold water on swirling rumors of a possible Keith Olbermann return Thursday, telling staffers at a town hall that he hasn’t spoken with the former network star.
“They were asked about Keith, and Phil said he hasn’t spoken to him,” a network insider told TheWrap. “Of course (NBC News/MSNBC Chairman Andrew) Lack stayed out of that question.”
Rumors of Olbermann’s return to the network at which he once starred began shortly after the anchor’s recent exit from ESPN, which didn’t renew his contract.

Not only that, but Brian Williams doesn't want his own show according to this.

Guess you need to re-write that article.

than UpChuck will ever have in his fondest dreams. They have long been canned from their shows while the UpChuck hangs on, and on, and on, and on. The man is a non-entity. If MSNBC wants to go in a more "hard news" direction I don't believe it, because UpChuck is the farthest thing from a real journalist as you can get.

Not that he's wrong all the time or anything. I just think he's a brainless blowhard. Isn't there a better spokesperson for minorities? They need their voices heard, and I think most people just turn Sharpton off.
