DOWN BY HALF: Keith Olbermann Posts Worst Ratings Yet

Turns out Keith Olbermann's fans may not be willing to follow him to the ends of the earth. Or in this case Current TV.

The Daily News reports that Olbermann's show has lost nearly half its viewers since its June Debut.

Current doesn't make Olbermann's ratings public (unless the show has a particularly good week as it did in the last week of August), but the NYDN got its hands on some numbers and they're not great.

I doubt he could handle either of those jobs, they both demand some ability to sound convincing.

How soon before Sunday Night Football takes him back? He’s the Sarah Jessica Parker of broadcasting.

We don’t want him here in the hinterland. He’ll be ultra small somewhere on a liberal coast, where he belongs.

This report has to be wrong. Half of Zero is still Zero, so his ratings have not fallen at all.

My apologies to the hinterland, my fingers got way ahead of my two brain cells.

Both Olbie and MSNBC are going down the low-flow toilet. What a frickin’ shame. I read Algore is paying Olbie $9 million per. Brilliant, Al.

And if his ratings dropped to zero, who would notice?
