Maybe I missed this or it didn't get posted here because technically speaking it's not cable news, but. It does effect a cable host.
 
From Winki:
 
"KFGO was formerly the radio home of Ed Schultz, and at one time, carried both his local/regionally syndicated News and Views and the national version of The Ed Schultz Show. North Dakota politician Joel Heitkamp hosts a local weekday show in the former News and Views time slot. Schultz is no longer heard on KFGO."
 
The only station he is heard on in ND is LNDK1080 (200 miles from Fargo). A 1000 watt station that goes down to 45 watts at night. Not exactly a powerhouse.
 
So much for those Ed Schultz midwestern values?

Huck's doing his show live tonite. Of all nites, in the heart of the Christmas season and battling a blizzard, I wonder why it wasn't taped this afternoon as usual.

There are some posts at Mediaite that are loaded with snark and sarcasm with a leftward tilt. And most of the comments to the posts are from the far-left.
One of the Mediaiters wrote about O'Reilly's Talking Points Memo from last night and couldn't help but attack him and praise Franken. Then, the haters in the comment thread referred to you-know-who from five years ago (delicacies and bath accessories), quoted a love scene from "Those Who Trespass," and wedged insulting nicknames between "O'" and "ly." Is this a hater's idea of gotcha?

This is the way of the left. They are a bunch of 12 year olds lacking common sense and reason.
It works for the News Hounds as well.
 
Even the right has it's version of these fools hanging around trying to outdo each other with their idiocy.
 
The left is just much better at being ignorant.

Hey Blackfong/hypocrite houndy, that's really something to be worried about isn't it? You like to bitch about the NHs posting shit that nobody cares about.

Didn't we mock them months ago over their inability to spell the word "don't", and they still have it read "so you do have to"?

That's true. I've had to endure that, too, at some blogs I go to.

Yes, it would. I never want anyone to leave (or be fired from/not renewed by) Fox because they usually end up with the competition.
