Ed after a month

[pardon]

First of all, how many stations is he on with? 5? 6? And what kind of stations? Small ma pa ones? Why hasnt his employer Clear Channel put his show on any of their stations? None in the Fargo Moorhead market where his regular show paid for by clear channel is on? on his local show, he is not allowed to mention his national show and how to access it, yet he slips it in all the time driving KFGO management to go thru the roof! Something has to give. He cant continue defying KFGO and Clear Channel his employer. He must obey or leave. He is also wearing thin doing the two shows a day.He cant keep up the pace of being local for 3 hours a day and than 3 more hours of being national. Gone all the time on location with his national show.Thus cutting back from doing any remotes for his local state wide show. He certainly isnt any manager at KFGO. He is a "wild man" breaking rules running two shows. Something has to give. Meanwhile, the lies continue and and nothing is done about them. For example, he never received any Peabody award or any National award...his station did but not him. Or he hasnt had a 20 plus share for 15 years in a row. He isnt the midwest's most populkar radio show either. The folks at Radio Democrracy have lied and have built him up as some sorta super radio star. They use lies to do it. The entire thing reaks....and now after a month, its obvious its over, rover.

"Ed who?"

Ed Schultz is a radio talk-show host in Fargo, N.D., who loves to vent on the air about politics. Daschle and other Democrats are counting on Schultz to help them counter the conservative wave on the radio and communicate their liberal message to the American people.

On Jan. 5, the Jones Radio Network will introduce Schultz's 3-6 p.m. show (Eastern Time) in 11 small U.S. markets, in the hope of expanding his reach by year-end 2004.

Schultz, 49, stands out from the pack. He is an unabashed liberal, in an era when Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and other outspoken conservative personalities advance the viewpoints of likeminded politicians - and rule the radio airwaves.

quote from the Ed Schultz web site:
"Ed Schultz is a #1 rated talent with fifteen years of 20+ shares ... with conservatives and injects common sense, intelligence and humor into mainstream"

Whoa. For a minute I thought you'd posted to the wrong thread.

Welcome to Free Republic.

[ampat]

Me three. Ed who?

[Brad’s Gramma]

WHO is Ed??????

[Brad’s Gramma]

Ah. I should've read the whole thing afore asking about Mr. Ed.

[tongue-tied]

I was wondering the same thing. The post has the telltale signs: typos, lack of punctuation (uses ' for possesive but not contractions) and it just smells like a "That nasty ol' Right-Wing Clearchannel radio" rant.

But its late, so...who knows?

[cyborg]

yes could have had a bit too much of the brew

He is also wearing thin doing the two shows a day.He cant keep up the pace of being local for 3 hours a day and than 3 more hours of being national.

How many years did Rush do a local show followed by a national show the same day?

Shows how little of interest a liberal really has to talk about.

[yikes]

Huh?

Media pundits have been yapping about the "liberal alternative to Rush Limbaugh" for years now but one never seems to materialize. The closest they came was Tom Leykis, but Tom is really not a liberal at all. He's a Libertarian. He just pretended to be a liberal so that he could cash in on the perceived need for an "anti-Rush Limaugh." But Tom Leykis turned out to be nothing but a Howard Stern wannabe. The only publicity he ever got was for doing stunts like revealing the name of basketball star Kobe's accuser in his rape case.

His show is tasteless, crude, and unlistenable. He's evidently modeled his persona on Michael Moore and recent pictures show that he's starting to look like him too. Creepy.

[Tijeras_Slim]

He must obey or leave.

Word to the wise sonny.

[Mike Darancette]

The guys wife was a stone fox and yet he spent most of his time with a horse. Must have been a Liberal.
