Ed Shultz turns his "breaks" on CSPAN into Infocommercials
Edited on Tue Aug-28-07 01:46 PM by itsrobert
for CA40G. I love it. CSPAN doesn't know what's hitting them. Capitalism at it's best.

1. I've heard other hosts do ads that were part of their programs
But not slipped in there like this during a news break or while other ads are on.

I do have to applaud his throw down to Hannity earlier. Ed looked like he was ready to bust a gut.

2. This has made my day.
I have never been that big a Big Ed fan, mainly because I so rarely get to hear him, but he has made the case for Progressive Radio. I'm so glad to hear him calling, those lying, hypocritical republicCONS out. :bounce:

4. Um, it's called "simulcasting"
It's part of Schultz's show. If C-Span doesn't want to broadcast it, it's up to them to block it, not Schultz.

5. I can't see CSPAN here at work, Can you tell me what's going on?
I assume that his radio show is being simulcast? How much of it? Permanently or temporarily? I guess during radio commercials, when the CSPAN cameras are still on him, he does a little suplimental advertising? For what?

TIA!

6. Exactly
During his radio breaks at least 2 times, he brings on a spokesman for CA40G a fuel additive pretending he's trying to educate the CSPAN audience on this 'technology' that may reduce the the market price of gasoline.

8. Another thing he does is,,,
when someone like Tucker or Blitzer interviews him he makes sure he sits by his bookshelf and puts his book over his left shoulder facing the camera.
