BREAKING: Former MSNBC Host Ed Schultz Has Died

Former MSNBC host Ed Schultz has passed away at age 64. According to WDAY, Schultz’s death was a result of natural causes.

Schultz began his broadcasting career as a conservative talk-radio host in the 1980s. After he adopted more progressive-leaning political views over time, he eventually became an MSNBC contributor and hosted his very own The Ed Show on weekdays.

The show was cancelled in 2015 and he most recently worked for RT America.
