Ed Schultz, the North Dakota radio personality touted as the liberal Rush Limbaugh, played a prominent role at the Democratic National Convention, with guest appearances by various Democratic figures, including Senator Daschle. The New Republic has a snippet regarding Schultz headlined "Radio Frequency" in this week's edition. Excerpt:
Down on the ground level of the FleetCenter, right where the commuter trains normally disgorge their passengers into North Station, Ed Schultz is doing his show from 2:00 to 6:00 every afternoon. One of the new breed of liberal talkers, Schultz, who's based in Fargo, North Dakota, landed a national syndication deal in January and is now heard on 37 stations across the country. That hardly puts him in the same universe as Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity, but it's not a bad start. "If we keep up this pace, we'll break Limbaugh's record of 54 stations in his first year," Schultz said.
