Controversy Over Ed Schultz Calling Laura Ingraham a Slut
May 27, 2011
So reticent to devour their own, the women of the View defend Ed. And CNN says
they don't even know what the word means.
From
NewsBusters:
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: MSNBC has given host Ed Schultz a one-week suspension for this radio rant about conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham. Take a listen.
(Audio Clip)
ED SCHULTZ, liberal talk show host: President Obama is going to be visiting Joplin, Missouri on Sunday. But you know what they're talking about? Like this right-wing slut, what's her name – Laura Ingraham? Yeah, she's a talk slut.
(End Clip)
BARBARA WALTERS: I would like to say that Joy Behar, on this program, has called me a slut.
(Laughter)
GOLDBERG: Joy Behar has called many people a slut on this program. Did you hear from this woman's organization? Ever?
JOY BEHAR: Why Barbara, when I call her a slut, the truth is an ultimate defense. That's all I have to say.
