Olbermann rejoined MSNBC in 2003, at first as a stand-in host on Nachman and an anchorman covering the war in Iraq. In the spring of that year, Olbermann was awarded his best-known position to date, as host of his own MSNBC nightly news program, Countdown with Keith Olbermann. The show offered audiences a summary of the five most pressing news stories of the day. Olbermann provided his own analysis and commentary for each news item, and interviewed people related to the stories. The show ran on MSNBC until 2011, at which time it was picked up by the progressive media network Current TV.
Over the course of his broadcasting career, Olbermann has received many awards for his work in both television and radio. These include 11 Golden Mike Awards, and an Edward R. Murrow award for his coverage of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
Keith has been involved in several relationships including the American basketball player, Rebecca Lobo back in 1995. They dated each other for a year and broke up in 1996. After a year, he dated the American TV personality, Laura Ingraham for a year and separated in 1997. After that, he stayed single for a long period of time until he met the talented American TV host, Katy Tur. They began dating each other in 2006. They lived together for a time, but things did not work out and they separated and ended their three-year relationship in 2009. Keith has never been married and has no children. After a year of separation, both he and Katy had a televised video interview.
He completed the interview by saying, "Tur, my dear friend." It looks like they both had ended their relationship on good terms. It is reported that she ended the relationship. The reason for the separation is not announced. They both seem to keep things to themselves. Some rumors state that she used him to prop herself up as a TV actress and left him when she got what she wanted.
