Keith Olbermann To Get SportsCenter Face Time

Keith Olbermann had some big news on the first anniversary of his ESPN2 show, Olbermann.

Starting on Sept.8, Olbermann’s timeslot will shift from 11 p.m. ET to 5 p.m. ET, and switch from a hourlong format to a half-hour-long format, freeing up time for the commentator to host segments of ESPN’s SportsCenter.

Olbermann previously hosted SportsCenter from 1992 until 1997, when he left under contentious circumstances with ESPN.
