Ed Schultz: Andrew Breitbart Let Opie And Anthony Do His ‘Dirty Work’

Video
» 161 comments

Ed Schultz, unlike some of his MSNBC colleagues, actually does think Anthony Weiner should resign. However, that doesn’t mean he has to like the driving force behind Weiner’s downfall, as last night Schultz took on “right-wing hack” and “smear merchant” Andrew Breitbart.

Schultz declared that Breitbart’s “elevation into the world of journalism lasted about one day” until Breitbart got “lucky” and the X-rated photo of Weiner got out. Despite Breitbart’s claim that radio hosts Opie and Anthony violated his trust by allowing the picture to be released, Schultz didn’t believe Breitbart for a minute. “Sure Breitbart, you just let Opie and Anthony do your dirty work,” Schultz concluded.

Later in the show Schultz also dismissed the idea that Breitbart was a journalist and thought he merely was an “unguided missile.” With pressure intensifying for Weiner to resign, and even more quickly since the release of the X-rated photo, maybe Breitbart did get “lucky,” maybe this was his plan all along, or maybe he should be taken at his word that this unconventional method for ruining his insurance policy truly was not his intention. Regardless, the mysteries and intrigue in the Weinergate saga continue.

    It’s an ages old phenomenon, isn’t it, Ed? Poor children once followed coal wagons in urban areas throughout much of the world to gather fallen pieces of coal. Breitphart follows karts o’ krap to gather krap for those who enjoy krap.

    Yes, America’s inaugural Congressional Junk Shot matters. There are a million penises on the internet. No one cares at all about the vast majority of them. The person to whom it’s attached matters. The fact that he’s a sitting Congressman matters.

    Are you not following the reactions of his friends? They all seem to get that this was a really stupid thing to do. He has no one standing beside him on this. There’s a reason for that and you don’t have to be a deep thinker to figure it out. You can do it!

    Pablo said:

    Let me get this straight. Britebart secures a picture of a congressman’s dick that had been sent to a private person. Britebart feels compelled to show the photo to a couple of shock jock friends of his, they copy it and put it up on the web, and you say Britebart did not do it? Think how sick it is for a man to be showing dick photos to his friends? I mean, that’s the gripe with Weiner, right? But Britebart went beyond that. He took an embarrassing photo, a picture of a congressman’s penis, that had been sent to just a couple people, and showed it to the world. That’s worse.

    I blame Weiner for the idiotic stuff he did. But Weiner did not send a photo of his penis around the world, he sent it to a private person who he trusted (foolishly) to keep it private. Britebart sent the private photo around the world, long after Weiner fully confessed.

    O, get real! No one goes to Breitphart for evidence. That would be like going to 7-11 for a nice piece of Halibut. People sought out this picture and Breithphart’s site merely to satisfy their prurient interests. Let’s not call a Dingo a Corgi.

    In this day and age anytime you send an email to anyone, even if marked private, its on the servers, possibly forever archived, and you lose control of it. Whether its a picture, joke, or insulting your boss, anything sent electronicaly that could be harmful to you is sent at your own risk. You want to keep it private, show them in person and don’t write it down. Gee, that’s kind of like what Breitbart did. Should he have known the studio had a video live feed? Absolutely. Did he willfully pass his cell phone around knowing there would be video of it? Possibly, but I doubt it. The release of the photo does nothing to Brietbarts advantage, its hurt him.

    Weiner himself tried to smear Breitbart as the hacker and allowed/encouraged his media hack buddies to do the same in his attempted coverup. If Ed was on air last week, he’d have been right in the middle of it.

    How about this:
    Weiner acted like a creep and should step down and try to save his marriage

    I’m sure the first pictures was Andrew’s fault also. The doofus wasn’t there to tell Weiner how to send it only to the select “few” he was trying to impress.

    So, Weiner sent the first picture to the world and Breitbart (again by accident – much like Weiner) sent the second picture, but – and this is the good part – Breitbart is the smear merchant and Anthony, well Anthony is just a silly doofus

    As long as people are consistent about policies I don’t mind, so the GOP should probably force Vitter to step down just to avoid looking like a bunch of hypocrites who let a criminal stay in Congress.

    As long as people are consistent about policies I don’t mind, so the GOP should probably force Vitter to step down just to avoid looking like a bunch of hypocrites who let a criminal stay in Congress.

    Sure. Britebart brought the photo to a couple of shock jock friends of his for “viewing”. Of course I can understand that they did not believe Britebart the moonie when he said that he had the photo(s), and that he was going to be a good guy and not release them. Fine. But think how sick that is. Britebart brought the photos to a shock jock station for “viewing”. This is worse than what weiner did, by far.

  • Rivermont

    From Weiner’s website on how he fights crime:

    Tough on Crime

    Protecting Children On the Internet

    Sadly, the Internet is the predator’s venue of choice today. We need to update our strategies and our laws to stop these offenders who are a mere click away from our children.

    Before approaching RadarOnline.com and Star magazine with a transcript of her sexting exchanges, Lisa Weiss told us that she had contacted noted liberal political analyst and television host Rachel Maddow.

    I contacted Maddow during her DADT coverage with a story she would have jumped on.
    I had a friend in the military who had what I thought was an amazing story to tell about a guy we both knew who was openly bi-sexual, married (to a woman) and was having an affair -he is currently recruiting. Because he was married and “born again” he did not get booted. But, one of the guys who was gay, catholic and celibate who served in his same unit was getting discharged.
    She did not respond and I know that was a topic she would have foamed at the mouth to cover.
    So, I don’t think this is about Maddow refusing to cover this story, I think it’s Maddow not checking her email closely enough.

    For all the condemnation trying to be hurled at conservatives for ginning up this controversy (as if Weiner had not exposed himself to the internet) let’s remember who got this current ball-of-contortion rolling in the first place — Bill Clinton.

    I don’t mean the Bill Clinton getting hummers on the Presidential Seal either. I mean the Bill Clinton who initiated the investigation of Bob Packwood, because of a sex scandal. Not the Bill Clinton who was the focus of a supposedly obsessive Ken Starr but the Bill Clinton who praised Ken Starr to the rafters when he hired the man to bring Packwood down. Not the Clinton who was deemed by the media a victim of a republican witch hunt, but the Clinton whose own witch hunt culminated when they confiscated Packwood’s personal diaries in order to bust the man.

    Ironic that one year later all those elements came back into play to burn the very man who instigated them, and more interesting that the press had zero sense of perspective when defending the man. More telling that today things have not changed a whit. Mike Duvall, Larry Craig, Mark Sanford, Mark Foley –all run from office for sexual escapades, yet Weiner was defended until the truth crashed down on his, er head.

    There is a difference between sending an e-mail to some one and putting something up on a web site for every one. Weiner did not do that, or intend to do that. Britebart did intend to show off his penis photos to his friends, and is fully responsible since he promised the person who gave them to him that he would not abuse them, apparently.

    Vitter was not forced to resign by his party for breaking The Ten Commandments (more than one), repeatedly, over the course of years.

    Evidence That Weiner Was Talking Dirty to Underage Girls? Part 2

  • seek

    The statute of limitations had run out – thus Vitter was not charged. Bringing up his name and demanding that he resign for something that happened YEARS ago is asinine. Only a desperate democrat would even attempt to somehow compare the two. There were many other sexcapades in between where the party charged resigned. Why the focus on Vitter is impossible for a sane person to answer.

    When Vitter’s previous indiscretion came out – he was running for office and his constituents felt it was very old news and not relevant to the person standing before them – thus they re-elected him.

    The democrats are desperate as indicated by valkyrie’s inability to make up his mind regarding Weiner and somehow needing Vitter as a scapegoat for Weiner’s behaviour.

    Let’s compare Lee to Weiner – one gone – one hanging on. Done

    Keep it relevant and pithy. Just because Rachel said so, does not make it so. Rachel has no idea what she is talking about (that’s a news flash in case you couldn’t figure it out yourselves)
