See You In Court! Keith Olbermann Sues Current TV (DETAILS)

Posted April 5, 2012 by The Decider for Global Grind Staff

Keith Olbermann isn’t finished with Current TV just yet. It was just revealed that the former Countdown host filed a lawsuit in L.A. County Superior Court claiming he was wrongfully terminated from the network last Friday.

STORY: Deuces! Keith Olbermann Dismissed From Current TV

Last week Al Gore, the network's co-founder, said that Olbermann had been disrespectful and disloyal to viewers.

Olbermann fired back, claiming the network was a "ragtag operation" that couldn't afford him anyway.

Last year Olbermann signed a five-year, $50 million contract with Current after his career at MSNBC came to an abrupt end in January 2011.

Patricia Glaser will represent Olbermann; she also served as attorney to Conan O'Brien when he was fired by NBC.

O'Brien ended up with a $45 million settlement for himself and his staff.

Good luck to Olbermann.
