MSNBC's Legacy of Hate: Ed Schultz Frothing Over 'Bastard,' 'Slut,' 'Dirthole' Conservatives

March 16th, 2012 11:45 AM

MRC President Brent Bozell appeared on the Mark Levin radio show, Thursday, to premiere a new montage of Ed Schultz's most hateful comments and attack MSNBC's double standard. Pointing out liberal journalists who have called for Rush Limbaugh's firing, but are silent on Shultz, Bozell declared, "I’ve had it with the dishonesty. I’ve had it with the shameless posturing. I’ve had it with the hypocrisy.  And it’s time to call them out on it."

Video of Schultz's foaming, unhinged rants over "bastard," "slut" conservatives can be found below. [MP3 audio here.] After Levin played the montage, which included Shultz suggesting some conservatives want to murder Barack Obama, Bozell wondered, "Have you ever heard any one of those reporters who were upset with Rush Limbaugh ever express any outrage at anything that Ed Schultz has said along the lines we just played you?"

Bozell added:

With all the outrage against Rush Limbaugh for using the word slut. And you've heard so many people at MSNBC, one after another after another trying to keep that story alive day after day after day after day.  Everybody, Al Sharpton, Chris Matthews. They're all with the drumbeat trying to keep it alive.  Can you recall and if your audience can put their thinking caps on this, can you recall anybody at MSNBC, anybody at The New York Times, anybody at CNN, at ABC, at CBS, at Headline News, at The Washington Post. Anyone who has gone after Rush Limbaugh, can you name me a person who went after Ed Schultz for calling Laura Ingraham a slut?

Here are but a few examples of Ed Schultz's unhinged, left-wing hate:


MSNBC (September 23, 2009): The Republicans lie! They want to see you dead

MSNBC (April 26, 2011): This is what the Republican Party stands for, though: racism.

RADIO (August 11, 2009): Sometimes I think they want Obama to get shot. I do. I really think that there are conservative broadcasters in this country who would love to see Obama taken out.

MSNBC (August 25, 2010): We are going down a very dangerous road right now when a political organization like the Tea Party has members trying to intimidate elected public officials....Folks, this is what the Brown Shirts did in the 1930s in Germany.

RADIO (October 28, 2009, talking about Hadassah Lieberman): Does the word 'whore' apply?

RADIO (July 14, 2010): Shove those bastards right into the dirthole! This is about power! It's about winning!

RADIO (February 24, 2010): You're damn right, Dick Cheney's heart's a political football. We ought to rip it out and kick it around and stuff it back in him.

RADIO (May 24, 2011): Like this right-wing slut, what’s her name, Laura Ingraham? Yeah, she’s a talk slut.
