Ed Schultz is a 'nobody' and MSNBC is a 'nobody' channel. MSNBC only garners 12% of viewers that watch cable news. As a result, MSNBC's sphere of influence is very small.
As I see it, Ed is MSNBC"s response to Bill O. He is very much the same personality: strongly opiniated, alpha male type who is intimidating and unaplogetic. i think it's good. Right wingers have depicted lefties as being weak and fragile and over-emotional. Ed is a good symbol against that stereotype. He is a good matchup for Bill-O, who is a true american asshole.
Ed is hardly a response to Bill O the rating clearly prove that...
Ed is indeed a shill for the Democrat Party, over emotional, a loud mouth, illogical and quite desperate.
The idea that you are at all interested in ratings and equate them with intgrity, or truth, or quality, truly boggles my mind. That which is popular rarely is of quality, just look at today's popular music or tv shows, which so many conservatives complain about as being void of values and this and that. Well, I see fox as the same way. It is popular, because it is crap, and feeds people's ego and identity who need to hear their beliefs reflected back to them. This is mostly for the cons. Usually people don't need to watch other people tell them what they should believe. This seems to be what fox does, and the fact that fox's followers talk about fox as is if it is the best thing since sliced bread is truly comical to me. Have fun with Bill, he's a huge doucher.
