Ed Schultz: Laura Ingraham, 'Slut'

Yes, those Leftists are so civil. They are beyond reproach.

Sure.

On his syndicated radio show, MSNBC host Ed Schultz called Laura Ingraham a "Right-wing slut."

Audio from The Daily Caller, via Brian Maloney, The Radio Equalizer:




Transcript

ED SCHULTZ (02:52): And what do the Republicans thinking about? They're not thinking about their next-door neighbor. They're just thinking about how much this is going to cost. President Obama is going to be visiting Joplin, Mo., on Sunday but you know what they're talking about, like this right-wing slut, what's her name?, Laura Ingraham? Yeah, she's a talk slut. You see, she was, back in the day, praising President Reagan when he was drinking a beer overseas. But now that Obama's doing it, they're working him over.

Why does MSNBC give someone like Ed Schultz, good buddy of Chris Larson, a platform?

There's a problem when an outlet like MSNBC is willing to tolerate its hosts denigrating women like that.

Does MSNBC really want Ed Schultz to be on its team?

Do Brian Williams and NBC News approve of the MSNBC extremists dragging down the credibility of the NBC News brand?

I guess it doesn't matter.

NBC News lost credibility long ago.

UPDATE: MSNBC suspends Schultz for calling Ingraham a 'slut'
MSNBC has suspended Ed Schultz, host of the “The Ed Show,” for one week without pay for calling conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham a ‘right-wing slut’ on his syndicated radio program Tuesday.

“Remarks of this nature are unacceptable and will not be tolerated,” MSNBC said in a statement.

MSNBC said Schultz will address the remarks on his show Wednesday night, and begin his leave immediately afterward. He will return on June 6th.

“MSNBC management met with Ed Schultz this afternoon and accepted his offer to take one week of unpaid leave for the remarks he made yesterday on his radio program,” MSNBC said.

MSNBC should fire Schultz.

Why would management want him to be one the main faces of the network?

MSNBC/NBC News must get its act together.

Time to purge.
