MSNBC Suspends Ed Schultz For A Week After ‘Slut’ Remark

From TPM

Ed Schultz will take a week off MSNBC’s airwaves after he called conservative radio host Laura Ingraham a “right wing slut” on his radio show Tuesday.

“Remarks of this nature are unacceptable and will not be tolerated,” MSNBC said in a statement.

Shultz will “address” the statement on his 10 p.m. MSNBC primetime show Wednesday, the network said.

Earlier, Ingraham offered this response to Schultz on her Facebook page:

Re. the crude comments made about me by Ed Schultz on his radio program: First, I was surprised to learn that Ed Schultz actually hosted a radio show. Is it only available online? Second, I have to get back to recording the audio edition of my new book “Of Thee I Zing.” Now I’m tempted to insert one additional zing–about men who preach civility but practice misogyny.

Our goal is simple. We’re working with movement organizers across the country to develop critical mass for political action.

The components we’re building to reach this goal include state-of-the art online activist hubs, socially driven action campaigns, targeted advertising/marketing campaigns (TV, radio, etc) in elections, GOTV programs and much more.
