The Hollywood Reporter has some less-than surprising news: Eliot Spitzer can't even hold on to Keith Olbermann's puny audience at Current TV. The paper's headline said "predictably plummet." Compared to Olbermann's average in March, over the same time period, Nielsen has Spitzer's four-week average down 62 percent with adults 25-54 (14,000, down  from 38,000) and 68 percent with total viewers (…
