Doesn't look mainstream. Not sure why a US sportscaster commenting on politics would be relevant to me.
Until recently, when he quit, Olbermann used to have his own nightly show on MSNBC that had over a million viewers.
But Keith Olbermann, and how influential he is as a media personality, is irrelevant to the larger story. The point is that awareness of Rob Ford has spread beyond Toronto, beyond Ontario and even beyond Canada. It doesn't intrigue me that Keith Olbermann will spread the word about Rob Ford to a US audience; what intrigues me is how much of a f*ckup Rob Ford has to be in order for Keith Olbermann to even get word of this. When was the last time a Canadian municipal politician had any international press coverage?
