Where Is Ed Schultz’s Weekend Show? The MSNBC Host Responds To Conspiracy Rumors

Last night, Chris Hayes made his primetime debut on MSNBC, officially stepping in as Ed Schultz‘s replacement in the 8 p.m. slot. Perhaps this led some of you to wonder how the end other of that transition — Schultz’s weekend show on the network — is doing. Fending on any conspiracy theorists, Schultz addressed issue on his radio show yesterday, informing that there may be no show yet… but that doesn’t mean he’s going anywhere.

Schultz pointed to rumors he saw on Twitter, which suggested the shuffle may actually be part of a larger MSNBC strategy to gradually show him the exit. He stressed that isn’t the case.

“I just want all of you to know there’s no conspiracy going on here now because there has not been a date given for The Ed Show to relaunch,” Schultz told listeners, adding that he’s going to be at MSNBC for “a long time.”

“We’re putting together, we’ve got a good number of staff members ready for the The Ed Show on the weekend and the rest of it’s going to be added in the coming days, and we’ll get a date!” Schultz pressed....

Ed “Roast Beef Head” Schultz is on the way out? pmsNBC tired of losing money on all those losers? I was hoping they’d just keep bleeding GE dry for all the worthless shows’ payrolls. Looks like the ratings analysts/corp bean counters are prevailing.

Wrong, PMSNBC hasn’t changed their stripes. They may get rid of Schultz, who is a union loving, labor loving socialist Dem, but are replacing him with something worse, Chris Hayes, who is pure theoretical Marxist. All theory, no practicality at all, and has an extremely high opinion of his own intellect. The guy gives me the creeps bigtime, and his panels on his prior weekend show were chock full of the most far left of liberals, socialists I should say, or fascist socialists to be more accurate.

At least Ed was kind of an old time Unionist lover, man of the working classes of the world type. This Chris Hayes is totally Saul Alinsky, an ideological Marxist/Fascist insidiously pseudo intellectual type. More of a Lawrence O’Donnell personality, only younger. I would ten times have rather watched Ed Schultz than this Chris Hayes, and you will see why shortly. And Ed Schultz is unwatchable, so what does that make Chris Hayes? Despicable and unwatchable.

I’m not familiar with Hayes; just the name.

Question for everyone, what would get better ratings, the Ed Schultz show or re-runs of the old Saturday Morning show Sigmund and the Sea Monsters?
