Bottom Line...Ed Schultz is not very good. He doesnt have it for a National audience. You cant fake it. You either have it or you dont. He isnt entertaining and
we know he is a conservative turned liberal hustler.
Thats why his show is doing so poorly.
THe National show has about 7 stations on..which is gross.It needs to get into large markets.The largest market, they had was Oklahoma City. They signed up and have PULLED OUT ALREADY.Not
happy with the show.
In comparison....Tony Snow of Fox just started a National radio show and already he has 40 stations signed up and 25 ARE MAJOR MARKET
CITIES!

The largest market, they had was Oklahoma City.

The good news for Blowhard Ed is that he still has Needles, CA. Most of the fun of watching Blowhard Ed going down the tubes is reading his lame excuses for why he is such a BIG FLOP. Blowhard Ed can be very creative when he is evasive.

Another thought is all of the publicity he has had since January! Incredible amount from all major tv networks, major news papers,at least 25 appearances
and worth many many thousands of dollars. And really not one station signing up from reading or watching it. The Minneapolis paper
has a huge article front page article on him, worth $100,000
easy and he doesnt have anyone on from the Twin cities.
This is the real telling story that it doesnt look very good for
Ed.
In a way its too bad. He a small guy from a small market trying to hit the bigs. Like a Rush. But,
Ed had too much baggage when he began. And he didnt come clean with his real background. You dont tell people you are a station manager and used to play pro football and have a Marconi award
when its all untrue. Plus he just turned liberal...obvious why he did. And so he comes across that way on the NATIONAL SHOW...fakey
mean, ego driven, hey you want to fight type of guy. A chip on his shoulder for sure and any caller who dares to take him on will be chopped at the knees. That kind of crap wears very thin in a hurry.
Plus his National listners are callers who seem to have a low IQ,
probaly jobless, welfare driven
but love to talk to Big Eddie, over and over again. That wears thin very fast. Where are the intelligent callers? The sucessful
people?THey dont want to go his show....theres no class...no reason...who in the hell is this ED from Fargo?

What is most surprising of all is here he has been given this incredible opportunity to go national and he does it so dumb and poor like. Anyone else would quick your other radio job and give it 110% and quit bitching and
get out and knock on radio station doors yourself.You cant do two fulltime jobs and be good at either one. He is resting on that
magic call letters of KFGO and their incredible ratings. Scared to leave as he knows he isnt that good and his ratings elsewhere
would be poor. Its his security blanket yet it also will be why
the national show will fail.
