Achtung Baby! Ed Schultz Touts Nazi Construction of Autobahn as Model
Never let it be said that Ed Schultz isn't fair. Why, just yesterday he was putting in a good word for German national socialism.

NYT Hit Piece on Glenn Beck: Fox May Not Renew His Contract
It's certainly not surprising that the New York Times would publish a hit piece on Glenn Beck, but coming hours after CNN's Howard Kurtz spent almost ten minutes bashing the Fox News commentator makes me smell a rat.

MSNBC's Matthews, O'Donnell, Schultz and Uygur Cherry-pick Huckabee to
Four of MSNBC's extended prime time hosts on Tuesday cherry-picked something Mike Huckabee said on Steve Malzberg's radio show in order to depict the possible Republican presidential candidate as a birther.

'Power' More Important Than 'Purity' in Complying With Law, Ed Schultz
Ed Schultz is a firm believer in the law. Most of the time.
On his radio show yesterday, Schultz demonstrated how he's willing to be flexible when it comes to legalities, especially if it helps those sharing his politics.
Schultz was talking with Democratic state senator Jon Erpenbach, one of the so-called "Wisconsin 14" who have fled the state to avoid voting on what they consider union-…
MSNBC’s Schultz Discovers FNC's Smith and Van Susteren are Not Conse
Twice this week on the Ed Show, MSNBC host Ed Schultz has paid attention to FNC’s Shepard Smith for not approaching the Wisconsin labor union controversy from the right, and also added in FNC’s Greta Van Susteren on Thursday. On Wednesday, the MSNBC host began his regular "Takedown" segment:

Attorney and "Ring of Fire" radio show co-host Mike Papantonio, guest-hosting on Ed Schultz's radio program yesterday, revealed two things -- he hates old people and wants tea party retirees to hurry up and die.
Don't take my word for it, listen to Papantonio's remarks after a caller said he saw "one of these baggers…
David Brooks: Gov. Walker Excluded Wisconsin Cops and Firefighters for
New York Times columnist David Brooks published a truly must-read piece Tuesday about what's going on in Wisconsin.

Ed Schultz Rips Limbaugh With Lies About Wisconsin: 'Wrap Your Fat Ass
MSNBC's Ed Schultz was in Madison, Wisconsin, last week predictably showing solidarity with protesting public employees.

Ed Schultz Exposed for Exaggerating How Much Wisconsin Governor's Plan
As NewsBusters reported Saturday, Rachel Maddow wasn't the only MSNBC commentator last week that lied to viewers about the budget battle in Wisconsin.
