MSNBC Replaces Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews with David Gregory

It sounds like MSNBC is done with the drama created by opinionated political co-anchors Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews — MSNBC has decided to replace Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews with David Gregory. Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews have not been fired from the network – they will continue to be commentators for MSNBC’s political coverage.
Things started to get ugly during the conventions, reportedly on Keith Olbermann’s part, with his many criticisms at the GOP convention.
David Gregory will step in as MSNBC anchor for the presidential and vice presidential debates as well as on election night.
Keith Olbermann’s “Countdown” tonight, September 8, will feature his interview with Barack Obama.
