Sorry for the convoluted URL, but I'm on my phone.

I'll be honest, I didn't listen to Ed and didn't care for his show, but my condolences to his family all the same.

Ed was a conservative talk show host who got angry at other Republicans over some issue with how veterans were being treated by the Bush II administration.

As with all of these public political conversions, I don't trust the reasons given for the conversion, but whatever.

As a talk show host on Air America, I didn't care for his show because it never felt like he did much research or understood the issues. Liberal or conservative, that bugs me and I usually stop listening.

When he died, he was working for RT, which is Russian propaganda.

RT is NOT Russian propaganda! barbos said so.

A standard neo-conservative position.

I remember Schultz being pretty much the only lefty commentator in favor of Dakota Access Pipeline. Then came an abrupt 180° turn. I thought his lefty buddies at MSnBC got to him, but it seems perhaps he was already starting to sing Putin's tune, preparing for his shift to RT. Russia depends on oil exports and are therefore not big fans of fracking. Stranding Bakken crude due to DAPL being denied would have been music to Putin's ears.

I never said so.

So then, they are?

Yes, but for him "globalism" isn't a code word for "Jew."

Put your penis back in your pants before you embarrass yourself.

Of course they are, I have said so many times. All large news companies are propaganda tools.

Oh, I see. So all news organizations are the enemy of the people like Trump says. Thank you for not being a tool of Russian propaganda.

I would not put it quite like that. But American news organizations are highly biased against certain countries or "regimes" in these countries.
So this was the reason behind creation of RT. Now of course RT turned biased against western "regimes".
