It appears that “Mr. Ed” totally lost it yesterday, threatening to burn down the NBC headquarters building and then breaking down in tears. Is this what we are to start expecting from the left as they wake up to the fact that everything they believed in turns out to be an epic failure. And poor clueless Joe Biden thinks the economy is on the right track. I just hope that Ed doesn't kill anyone. It sure does sound like he is capable of it.
MSNBC talk show screamer Ed Schultz had a meltdown in the network’s 30 Rock newsroom, shouting at staff, “I’m going to torch this [bleep]ing place.”
The hot-tempered anchor of “The Ed Show” lost it during a phone call in the packed studio and slammed down the phone before exploding.
As astonished MSNBC staff members fell silent, Schultz glared around the room and yelled, “[Bleep]ers!”
A witness told us, “Ed was furious the network was running election-night promos and he wasn’t in them. He’d been arguing on the phone with marketing, then he slammed down the phone and exploded. It was like Mel Gibson had entered the newsroom.”
A second MSNBC source said, “Ed never gets any attention and love, and he finally snapped.”
Fuming Schultz was immediately dragged in for a meeting with NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffinfollowing his Aug. 12 meltdown.
Our source added, “Schultz was told: ‘If you do that again, you are fired.’ He broke down crying.”
Sources say the hothead was pushed over the edge by MSNBC’s catering to bullying fellow anchor
Keith Olbermann and its focus on golden girl
Rachel Maddow.
