Ed Schultz Suspended

Ed talked smack about Laura Ingraham.  Lost in all this is the hypocrisy of bitching about President Obama having a beer while in Ireland.  So what.  He was criticizing Ingraham for applauding Reagan for drinking beer in Europe and now Obama bashing for the same thing.  Unfortunately, Ed went overboard and used called her ‘a right wing slut.’  That’s too bad.  He made a good point up until that point. 

Michelle Malkin, in her usual vituperative manner, called Schultz a cretin.  I guess she didn’t watch Glee the other night.  Would Ed have been in trouble for calling Ingraham ‘a right wing cretin?’  Regardless, gentlemen aren’t supposed to call women sluts.  Everyone needs to sit up and take notice. 

Schultz will be back.  His suspension is supposedly  for a week.   He is a good fix after an hour or so of Steve Doocy.  I already miss him.   He ate his crow, pound of ….well…never mind….and he ate it well.

The difference in Fox and MSNBC is that MSNBC actually disciplines its employees for bad behavior.  Fox does not, or so it seems. 

Norfolk’s Maury High School Grad Backs Teachers

That’s right, the boy from Maury High School has become the champion of the nation’s teachers.  Who is this Maury grad?  None other than MSNBC’s Ed Schultz.  Ed has never been one of my favorites but I have new respect.  He has been out to Wisconsin and has gotten down in the trenches. 

Jackie Haworth,  a retired  teacher from Ohio, appears on the Ed Show to discuss how things really are.  She was amazing.  Ed met Jackie because she emailed him after his radio show.  Jackie has been where many people have not.

 

Ed goes back to Maury High School next  week.  Maury is in the middle of Norfolk.  I assume he will find that things have changed alot.  Very few commentators have been as supportive of public school teachers during this crisis as Ed.
