It looks like most Freepers didn't watch this sequence, and are just reacting to a somewhat misleading description of it.

Schultz objected to being 'talked over' by Malzburg, said it always happens when he's on FOX. When it continued, he left.

It is so damned irritating to watch 2, 3, or more partisans hollering over each other - if one has a valid point you'll never hear it. When there is a respectful debate it seems so pleasingly unusual, when it should be the norm.

It is a shame that it took a slimy lib to do what many, many guests should have done in the past.

I am not sure that you and I were watching the same show there...

He stormed off after being asked a question by Malzberg yes malzberg interjected during Ed’s commentary but I would not caracterized it as talking over. I just think Ed got caught in a situation that he did not want to respond to..

Oh brother.

I watched this unfold and I believe my account is an accurate one.

Look. It was entirely unprofessional for him to walk out in the middle of a set like that. Period. He left in a hissy fit like a poor little whiney baby.

What, did Steve Malzberg upset his delicate sensibilities??

The reality is, people get interrupted and talked over all the time...especially on tv and in that kind of arena regardless of the channel. Is he so thin skinned that he can’t handle a little rumble?

I watched it, replayed it on my dvr. Steve didn’t talk over him at all. They were having a discussion and Ed started whining about how every time he’s on, he gets interrupted. He acted like a big baby...hey, you’re a talk show host and pundit. Welcome to politics.

yeah, I really dislike fox and friends, I dont consider them to be very conservative, they just cuttup and do $hits and giggles. I would rather they do headline news segments and ditch that stupid ass format they have.

I'm sorry, I couldn't read a word of what you wrote.

Powerpro typed all over you.
