MSNBC's Olbermann to Return Tuesday

MSNBC said Nov 7 it would reinstate Keith Olbermann to its lineup on Nov 9, four days after it suspended the liberal TV host because he had given money to three Democratic candidates in the 2010 midterm elections.

The General Electric Co. network had originally suspended Olbermann -- one of its biggest stars -- indefinitely, without pay, citing NBC News policies against political donations. But in a statement, network President Phil Griffin said he had "determined that suspending Keith through and including Monday night's program is an appropriate punishment for his violation of our policy." He added: "We look forward to having him back on the air Tuesday night."
