Coming off our biggest month ever in May (126,000 unique visitors) and ending on a bang with our Deadbeat Olbermann story, I want to announce some additions to the Olbermann Watch family. You all know that Mark at Johnny Dollar's Place, Brandon, Teddy and I have been contributing. You may also recall Doug Krile of The Krile Files who has said he is going to try and get back to posting some pro-KO posts just for a change of pace. Red Meat is the fellow who posts the non-Olby links into the Red Meat Blog in the left rail.

Now I've invited some of our friends in the blogosphere who, from time to time, post on Olbermann and all the doings at MSNBC to become cross-posting contributors on Olbermann Watch. I would encourage you to add their blogs to your regular blog reading schedule. Please welcome the following new OW contributors:

Chris Matthews' Leg
Chris Matthews' Leg

Howard Mortman
Extreme Mortman

Trajan 75
Think Progress Watch

Konservo
Konservo

Cable Gamer
The Cable Game

I will also add another note that from time to time we disclose how to request becoming a registered commenter on Olbermann Watch. It's a long story but we have purposely made it less than obvious how to request being a register commenter. If you send me an email to robert_a_cox to my yahoo email account then I will review your request. We are trying to avoid trolls so I am not likely to approve people who do not provide names and use free email accounts like hotmail. I would expect to see people coming in from "real" email accounts from their ISPs. As for all you OlbyLoons who are coming to visit us from Huffington Post and Daily Kos, you are welcome to register, defend Keith, attack me and this site or otherwise say your piece so long as you respect some basic rules of etiquette on the site.

Thanks for the reset, Bob. I think I'm in.

I was also ktt on the older OW site but would often end up as "anonymous" because I often forgot to sign in.

I finally emailed Bob last week after those last 2 special comments. It was no longer possible to stay quiet. As KO was roaring "unforgivable" I kept thinking "Isn't Sam Kinison dead?" but Sam didn't spit as much.

If we're lucky he'll do another Special Comment on the Clinton supporters from Saturday's Rules Committee meeting. In that way he can aim at 2 of his favorite targets, older women and HRC.
