Fat-hEd Schultz cancelled - DU haz a sad.

DUmmies are not happy to learn one of MSNBC's leading comedic programs is cancelled. Neither is Bernie.  - http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027003000

Bernie Sanders Blasts MSNBC and Comcast For Canceling Ed Schultz--Removing Voice for Working America

Bernie Sanders Blasts MSNBC and Comcast For Canceling Ed Schultz

Sen. Bernie Sanders blasted MSNBC and Comcast for canceling Ed Schultz and removing one of the few voices for working Americans from television.

In a statement Sen. Sanders (I-VT) said:

We live in a time when much of the corporate media regards politics as a baseball game or a soap opera. Ed Schultz has treated the American people with respect by focusing on the most important issues impacting their lives. He has talked about income and wealth inequality, high unemployment, low wages, our disastrous trade policies and racism in America.

I am very disappointed that Comcast chose to remove Ed Schultz from its lineup. We need more people who talk about the real issues facing our country, not fewer.

At a time when a handful of large, multi-national corporations own our major media outlets, I hope they will allow voices to be heard from those who dissent from the corporate agenda.


It is rare to see a sitting U.S. Senator blast a network for a programming decision, but it is also rare that a network makes such a blatantly pro-corporate decision as the one that MSNBC has made. The cancelation of Ed Schultz means that one of the only populist voices for blue collar liberalism will be taken off the air. The decision to replace Schultz’s voice with that of NBC News Political Director Chuck Todd made MSNBC’s new direction obvious.

They don’t get much more corporate than Chuck Todd. MSNBC could have replaced Schultz with a wide variety of journalists, but the network intentionally chose to replace an anti-corporate voice with a man who owes his career to not rocking the boat and doing the bidding of his corporate bosses.

So he was talking "about the real issues facing our country," but even the kooks on PMSNBCkookville didn't watch him enough to keep his absolutely necessary TV show on the air.

Wow, Bernie's just the smartest person in the room, except for Dear Leader who's a corporate whore.

Ed may be mercifully gone from TV but IRRC he's still got a 3 hour daily radio show.

Match Game is great ! I will occasionally find reruns on the Game Show Network. - At times I think it would be great to bring it back, then I remember I now live in PC World, and there is just no way a new season could ever compare to the original. :(

Hell, before he changed his name to Hollywood friendly, Peter Marshall's birth name was Peter La'Cock.  Think that name would fly today? And yes, he was the Dad of the baseball player Pete LaCock.
