Olbermann salutes Stan Chambers

Keith Olbermann on MSNBC just ran a personal tribute to Channel 5's Stan Chambers. I missed most of it, but the sentiment was similar to a couple of tweets Olbermann posted today:

The best part about Stan Chambers' retirement - and the definition of who he is: "he still plans to do occasional stories for KTLA" !!!!

I salute my colleague Stan Chambers, retiring today on his 87th birthday, after just 63 years on KTLA, Channel 5, Los Angeles. THE Best.
