Football Night In America

Keith Olbermann will not appear on the upcoming season of NBC’s Sunday night football show, Football Night in America, according to a report by SportsByBrooks.com. SbB cited “multiple media and network television sources” in the report.

Some members of the FNIA cast and crew were made aware of the news Tuesday at a preseason production meeting in New York City.

Network television sources confirmed to me that Olbermann’s departure from FNIA was not due to any conflict with cast or production crew members. I was also given no indication that Olbermann’s politics had anything to do with the move (editorial comment by the blogger... IT WAS).

Last season, Olbermann anchored FNIA, which served as the lead-in to NBC’s ratings monster Sunday Night Football. NBC stacked the show with on-air talent in 2009: in addition to Olbermann, Dan Patrick, Bob Costas, Tony Dungy, Rodney Harrison, and Peter King appeared.
