ABOUT THE NEWS HOLE

It's the new award-winning blog* from the cast and crew of the award-winning television news hour** "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."

We heard about this whole "blogosphere" business from Tom DeLay, and came to the immediate realization that we too, "needed to become involved" in it.

So here it is. Covering the big news, the small news, medium-sized and irregular, The News Hole strives to bring everything you love or hate about Countdown to the internets.

Your feedback and hate mail is encouraged.

Gerald R. Ford 1913 - 2006

Posted: Wednesday, December 27, 2006 7:20 PM by Countdown

"On a football team, the center is seldom the star, seldom even known well, beyond the sidelines and the huddles and the scrimmages.

And yet without him... nothing happens. The ball is never snapped, the higher-profile players can't even really move.

It should come as no surprise then, that when the 38th President of the United States, Gerald R. Ford, played on the undefeated football teams at the University of Michigan in 1932 and 1933, he was the star...center."

Keith Olbermann anchors our special coverage of the death of President Gerald Ford, tonight on Countdown.
