Live From Times Square ...

When Keith Olbermann returned to ESPN2 this summer with his highly anticipated late night talk show, NABET-CWA members staffed Times Square Studios, the site of the program. NABET-CWA Local 51016 signed an agreement which provides that the technical crew for the Keith Olbermann show be covered under the union's master agreement with the ABC Television Network.

NABET-CWA Local 51016 President Art Mazzacca said, "This agreement will provide a tremendous amount of work, 52 weeks out of the year, to our members, and will provide them with the benefits of a good union contract."

Olbermann is no stranger to working with NABET-CWA crews. His MSNBC show, "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" was produced at 30 Rockefeller Center in New York City and was covered by a NABET-CWA agreement with NBC.
