    Olbermann Back on Tuesday
    Josh Marshall | November 7, 2010, 9:15PM

    That didn’t take long.

    MSNBC just announced that Keith Olbermann will be back on Tuesday after one more day of suspension on Monday evening.

    Olbermann was suspended indefinitely without pay on Friday after a report that he’d contributed to three Democratic House candidates in October, purportedly a violation of MSNBC policy.

    Statement from Phil Griffin …

    After several days of deliberation and discussion, I have determined that suspending Keith through and including Monday night’s program is an appropriate punishment for his violation of our policy. We look forward to having him back on the air Tuesday night.

  2. Obama visits students, enjoys Diwali festival

    MUMBAI, India — President Barack Obama is showing a softer side of his agenda in India, chatting with high school students and reveling in the celebration of a major religious festival.

    The president and his wife, Michelle, are making a point to incorporate India’s culture into their three-day visit to India. They spent their Sunday morning at Holy Name High School, where students in their school uniforms gave the Obamas a detailed explanation of one of their projects – a miniature village with a windmill running power to it.

    The Obamas were also set to watch a performance in honor of Diwali, an important festival for Hindus and Sikhs. Obama has called it an honor to be the first president to celebrate the festival of lights at the White House last year.
