Suspended Keith Olbermann's Initial Replacement on MSNBC, Chris Hayes, Also Made Campaign Contributions - OpenSecrets Blog | OpenSecrets

Suspended Keith Olbermann's Initial Replacement on MSNBC, Chris Hayes, Also Made Campaign Contributions - OpenSecrets Blog | OpenSecrets: "An interesting subplot to MSNBC talk show host Keith Olbermann's suspension for making campaign contributions to three Democratic political candidates involves the man initially tapped to replace him: Chris Hayes (pictured right), Washington editor of The Nation and an MSNBC contributor.

MSNBC quickly reconsidered its decision to insert Hayes into Olbermann's slot, perhaps in part because of this story in September by OpenSecrets.org's own Megan R. Wilson, who discovered that Hayes was among dozens of identifiable reporters, editors and other news professionals to have this election cycle made political contributions."
