Nobody does nasty quite like good old Ed Shultz...
Now if this were someone on Fox News........never mind.

He's an idot and she's a bigger idiot.
These are entertainers, not people who impact the world or do something like do something for us outside of entertaining us.
he's pretty well hidden in the morass of liberal radio talk shows that have no audience.
You are exactly right greg, they are entertainers, but these entertainers do impact and influence a lot of people. Why, I have no idea. Just take a look around. It is tabloid news and its pathetic that people believe the tripe they put out, but they do, and worst of all, they repeat it as truth.
He shouldn't have said it, and I for one am glad he is being held accountable and being suspended for his words. Along with giving an apology. One glaring difference I do see though. You never see anyone from FoxNews(Hannity, Beck, O'reilly) or conservitive talk radio host being disciplined openly, (I did not say apologize, I said disciplined) when making similar, if not worse remarks It would seem that MSNBC has no problem disciplining(Shultz) or firing (Olbermann) if they cross the line they view as innapropriate.
Nah, it isn't that I care, it is that I just have an opinion.
BUT ....
Ragman, the problem is there is no broadcast journalism going on here, it is pure entertainment without objective 'reporting' in the format solely driven by profit, not commitment to one or another ideology.
If you take any of these shows and strip the personality out of them, they are all the same - not one bit of difference. They are like other entertainment shows, like ET and TMZ as far as the quality goes - bar none.
Many of the entertainers are taken 'oprah' serious by their listeners (which is scary and shows we have too many people with too much time on their hands), and their influence isn't what I would call inspiring to most of their audience but rather somewhat of emotionally stirring.
LOL, yea stir that pot (or pan) Letz...
