Keith Olbermann announces first group of regular contributors, including Markos Moulitsas

by Jed Lewison for Daily Kos


With the return of Countdown With Keith Olbermann a little more than a month away, we're learning a bit more about who will be on the show. Today, Current TV announced the broadcast's first group of regular correspondents, including our very own Markos Moulitsas. From Current's announcement:

“Countdown With Keith Olbermann,” the much-anticipated week-nightly commentary show slated to launch on independently owned Current TV on June 20th, is announcing its first group of regular contributors, which will include notable policy-makers, documentary film makers, award-winning journalists, bloggers comedians and other progressive voices. Lending their views and voices to “Countdown” on a regular basis will be film maker Ken Burns, Nicole D. Lamoureux, Executive Director, National Association Of Free Clinics, comedian Richard Lewis, film maker Michael Moore and Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas.

This news that Markos will be one of the regular contributors probably won't come as a shock. Markos was a regular on the old Countdown before MSNBC's top brass blacklisted him. Countdown With Keith Olbermann returns to the air on June 20th at 8PM ET and today we're learning a bit more about who will be in the show.
