<title>Olbermann Debut a Boost for Current TV</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-23048" title="countdowna_c_p" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/prnewser/files/2011/06/countdowna_c_p.jpg" alt="" width="194" height="248" /><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Keith-Olbermann-profile.html">Keith Olbermann</a></strong>&#8216;s latest version of his former MSNBC program <em><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Countdown-with-Keith-Olbermann-profile.html">Countdown with Keith Olbermann</a></strong></em> made its debut last night on <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Current-TV-profile.html">Current TV</a></strong>. According to <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thecutline/20110620/ts_yblog_thecutline/current-tv-do-you-have-it-what-channel-is-it-and-what-time-is-olbermann-on">The Cutline</a>, Current is in 60 million homes, transmits to the U.K., Ireland, and Italy, and clips from the new program will be available on the Current website a well as iTunes, xfinitytv.com, and Hulu.</p>
<p>The show and its prickly host got a lot of <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/19/magazine/olbermanns-rage-is-all-the-rage.html?_r=1&amp;scp=3&amp;sq=keith%20olbermann&amp;st=cse">advanced</a> <a href="http://www.brandchannel.com/home/post/2011/06/14/Current-Keith-Olbermann-Campaign.aspx">media</a> <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/television/news/2011-06-19-olbermann-opens-up_n.htm">attention</a>. And now with reaction to last night&#8217;s debut rolling in (the <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/keith-olbermanns-current-tv-debut-203570">general consensus</a> is the show is much the same as he was on MSNBC, with some additional rancor tossed in at <a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2011/06/21/keith-olbermann-s-current-tv-debut-the-relaunch-of-countdown.html">Olbermann&#8217;s old colleagues</a>), there&#8217;s additional media coverage this morning.</p>
<p>Coverage now is great, but Olbermann will certainly be looking to make headlines well into the future. That will ultimately benefit his program and all of Current TV.</p>

<title>Revolving Door: Leadership Changes at the &#8216;NY Times,&#8217; and More</title>
<description><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_21919" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-21919" title="NYT editors" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/prnewser/files/2011/06/NYT-editors-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Left to right: Baquet, Abramson, Keller. Photo: Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times</p></div>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Jill-Abramson-profile.html">Jill Abramson</a></strong> has been named the executive editor of <em><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/The-New-York-Times-profile.html">The New York Times</a></strong></em>, with <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Bill-Keller-profile.html">Bill Keller</a></strong> stepping down to take on a full-time writing position. Abramson was the paper&#8217;s managing editor, and served as an investigative reporter with the paper and as Washington bureau chief. She is the paper&#8217;s first-ever female executive editor. Keller held the position for eight years and currently writes a column for the Sunday <em>Times Magazine.</em></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Dean-Baquet-profile.html">Dean Baquet</a></strong>, the current Washington bureau chief is being moved to the managing editor position.</p>
<p>As the announcement was made, some reporters were tweeting the news, <a href="http://www.observer.com/2009/media/twitter-culture-wars-itimesi">sparking some debate</a> about how and when <em>NYT </em>reporters should use social media.</p>
<p>More Revolving Door after the jump.</p>
