I don't undertand why some here always criticize Ed Schultz' MSNBC show

[CatWoman]

I'm not always home to watch it, but when I do, I think he does pretty good job.

[Vadem]

1. I'm shocked! He just said that Obama must put a LIBERAL on the...

Supreme Court!

Ed has come a long way, from his beginning!

[CatWoman]

8. he also took pig boy Rush to task

Rush was bragging about his $400 million dollar contract with Clear Channel.

Thing is, Clear Channel had to cut its workforce by 1200 in order to pay Rush's salary.

2. I love Ed...

I listen to his radio show when I can as well.

[TahitiNut]

3. Some here will criticize (cast asparagus) anything.

Ed's not a "New Yorker" kinda guy. :evilgrin:

[CatWoman]

11. ummmmmmmm

asparagus........ :9

[JI7]

4. they don't like the way he talks

it's not what he says as much as the way he says it or his style.

5. I was just coming over to post about his opening today

It's a good exposition talking about the arrogance of Limbaugh bragging about his new contract, meanwhile, many have been laid off by Clear Channel and how many more around the country in other industries thus losing health care.

Well, gotta go clean my kitchen. But I've got the tv on loud enough so I can hear the show.

:hi:

10. I read about Rush today in the Editorials forum

:hi:

6. I like him too

he's not as much of a lefty as some, he gives a bit of a different slant. :thumbsup:

7. I listened to Ed pretty regularly on the radio...

...and I'm enjoying his new show. He's different and very passionate about his views. Ed always reminds me of the blue collar, "regular" guy that I grew up with. I don't always agree with him, but I do like him and his show. IMO - A nice addition to the MSNBC lineup.

9. I like him, but he tends to let Repub talking points go unanswered

Thats my only criticism of him.

[OHDEM]

17. He is less aggressive than some....

but at times I think he's giving them enough rope...

[Joanne98]

12. I like him.

[Peacetrain]

13. I like Ed.. he is not as smooth as some of the other MSNBC hosts

but I enjoy watching him

[JitterbugPerfume]

14. I never miss him

I like his style

[Sebastian Doyle]

15. The first 15 or 20 minutes are usually good

Then he lets the right wing shills open their mouths, and it all crashes and burns instantly.

[ShortnFiery]

16. I love me some ED SCHULTZ. In fact, I'm an Ed-Head.

:silly: He's real and comes across as genuine. That's a far cry from spastic Tweety Bird before him. ;)

[ecstatic]

18. maybe it's subconsciously about his looks...

:shrug:

[spanone]

19. i think ed listens to his audience and responds

[JanusAscending]

20. I've come to love Ed, as much as I detest "Tweetie"

Ed's show is the "fastest hour on TV !! Anyone else agree? It's packed full of info, but I don't like a lot of the righties he chooses to have on just to be fair and balanced. He has no qualms about taking them to the mat tho', and will call a lie, a lie!! This earns my respect.

[Polly Hennessey]

21. Big Ed

I love Ed. He seems genuine and I always learn something new. I do wish he was a little more aggressive with some of the Right-Wing shills. Maybe, as he gains more confidence in front of the cameras he will begin to call them out more often.

[madfloridian]

22. I agree.

When I first starting listening to him on the radio, I was not sure. But I find I like him much better now....and he is doing a great job on TV.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

23. I've taken to watching him on the repeat early in the morning this week.

I love his show!

I wish that it were on Tweety's time slot so that I could watch it live. Why is Tweety on twice anyway?
