Big Eddie Schultz will be blogging LIVE (again) this Thursday!

[snowbear]

So for all of the DU'ers who spend so much time bashing the Hell out of him, get your asses on his blog and talk to him PERSONALLY!

If you've ever blogged with Ed, you know that he'll literally spend hours with listeners responding to their every question.

He'll be blogging LIVE - Thursday, July 13th at 9:00 EST

It pisses me off to read the idiotic comments about "Big Ed is on Limbaugh radio" ...

Who the hell cares who owns the Jones Radio Network/Democracy Radio?!?!?!

Stephanie Miller is on the same network. Should we be angry at that too?

I'm sorry to see some people here whine so damn much. A Democrat that might have an opinion that differs even in the slightest from them are just tossed overboard and the petty name-calling begins.

Eddie blogs often with his listeners, and you'll appreciate how long he'll stay on to answer your questions.

And as a reminder --- Ned Lamont WILL be a guest on Eddie's show as soon as he can schedule it. Someone on another "Let's Bash Ed Thread" failed to mention that.

Ed wants to hear FROM YOU -- Get on there and TALK TO HIM LIVE !!!

1. Thanks Larissa!

I hope we can 'convince' Big Ed his perception of the 'Let's Get Lieberman' is way off base.

2. Hey.. I gave Eddie Holy HELL about him supporting Hillary...

When I was blogging on one of his LIVE blogs.

After numerous other people jumped in making points about how she'd run as a national candidate.. Eddie started thinking..

... ..."you know - maybe you guys are right"

He told us why he had originally felt she'd be a good candidate, but these days his tune has changed significantly.

He still respects her IMMENSELY. But as far as her being the '08 pick.. he's changed his mind 100% because of his listeners and his time blogging with them. ~~~~

3. Thanks, Larissa!

There must be something at least a little good about Ed for him to have as lovely and loyal a supporter as you!

4. Thank you TC!

It's no wonder Big Ed is #01 in the nation in Progressive Radio and is making a HUGE IMPACT on the Armed Forces Radio Network! ~~~

5. Only syndicated by Jones, owned by Randy Michaels new company.

Here is the Raw Story article, and there are others. I had to find it in Google cache so link is long.

http://72.14.209.104/search?q=cache:qUSVEzU3nAYJ:rawstory.com/news/2005/Radio_vets_purchase_Ed_Schultz_Liberal_talk_gains_business_0613.html+%22randy+michaels%22+%22ed+schultz%22&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=10

Ed says it shows he's moving up in the world, but a Salon article and others show Michaels has few scruples in getting ratings.

I will find them and post again if you wish. I am on my older computer now as the other has power problems, waiting for tech.

I can't get to my info I need, but I can find it.

I am glad he listens and dialogues, but he has put so many of our Democrats down even after he has them on. He still does it to Dean, and once went after him for not going on the air more. Dean had been on the air all week, just not on Ed's show....in fact they almost had words on air. Dean told him maybe it was because he had not come on his show.

The sensationalism bothers me. Where did he get the talking points about Dean yesterday, when Dean went on CNN Friday and said he would back the winner of the primary? I don't hear a lot of that from most of the AAR hosts...not obvious talking points like that. He has used this issue to garner ratings, just like he has done that in the past. He had callers for days talking about how bad the DNC was doing....and agreeing with them. Why is that ok when we are fighting for our lives in the party.

This is not just liberal radio, I fear, it is just about big money. With Michaels in control of Ed's show, it is about senationalism also.

6. Thanks MFlorida!! ....owned.. syndicated.. I'm just glad he's on!

7. BTW ~ for anyone who missed Paul Hackett discuss Lieberman/Lamont ...

If you have about 45 or so seconds to load the segment, you should listen to Paul discussing that race and why he would vote for Lamont ..

He also discusses why he decided to jump in and help Sherrod Brown in his race for U.S. Senate.

GREAT interview on Big Ed ~~~ http://audio.wegoted.com/podcasting/71006Hackett.mp3

8. Will he be lying about Murtha again?

Insulting Lamont again for having the audacity to run?

Fuck Schultz. He's a warmed-over conservative putz.
