Olbermann Tax Woes Mount, Extends to California, total now over $100,000

Looks likes the New York State Tax Warrant we reported on yesterday is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg.

A search of records in New York State turned up another Judgement against Keith Olbermann - this one for Keith personally not his "Empire" shell corporation). The Judgement was filed on 7/27/2000 for $21,565.

California records show yet another judgement - this one for a whopping $77,425 - which was filed on 9/21/2001. I guess Keith's professed patriotic fervor in the wake of 9/11 had cooled by the time his tax bill was due. This one was filed in Los Angeles County. Records indicate that Keith was finally got around to resolving the matter four months later.

All together Keith's tax warrants and judgements now exceed $100,000.

UPDATE: Evan Gahr is reporting...Olbermann Runs From Tax Questions

Asked about the delinquency Thursday night by conservative journalist Evan Gahr, the otherwise loquacious Olbermann uttered nary a word as he scurried inside his Trump Palace apartment building on the Upper East Side. Gahr, a former Post press critic, grilled Olbermann when he walked south on 3rd Avenue and 69th Street to his condo.

Great reporting, Bob!

I wonder if this will be "breaking news" for the entire hour of Countdown?

more coming...as soon as I can confirm with various tax agencies.

This must just be ruining Olbermann's week.....McClellan will be a distant memory by Monday....

The only things that could put the poison cherry on it all for Olbermann would be if HRC wins Puerto Rico on Sunday by more than 40 points and she gets an even larger piece of greater than 50% counted Florida and Michigan delgates that puts her over SNOBamessiah on the popular vote tally.....

His candidate is backing into the nomination.

LOL. Great gumshoe work, Bob. RESIGN OLBY, you deadbeat loser. If we could get video of Olby running like a scared little girl away from his inquisitor, that would make my week. Stupid hypocritical libs. They want to spend your money on welfare entitlements, not their own. Olby and his tax-cheating ilk love to tell us all how to live.

Hey everyone it's me Rodan. Thanks to Robert and Johnny for allowing me to post here. I've been in Cabo San Lucas for 1 week and I see Olbermann is on the verge of a breakdown. We have seen this coming.

You may as well mention your Trajan75 tag links back to your new blog.

David Gregory and The Drooler must be laughing their heads off over Olby's tax woes. Maybe The Drooler feels a tingle running up his leg a la Obama.

Great work guy.

I like the fact that the Air America dweeb says that Olby is so far left that he's become the Bill O. of the right.

1) BOR isn't even close to the extreme right where Olby is to the moon left.

2) BOR gives all his merchandise profits to charity where Olby gives money to KOS for selfish reasons.

3) BOR pays his taxes where Olby defrauds the government.

Goofus and Gallant. I guess Goofus was a Democrat.

Keith Olbermahn won't pay his share
Evidently, he doesn't care
Just like Al Franken
Tax money they're bankin'
Hypocritical tax-cheating pair
