In a move that some might see as a sign of desperation, MSNBC has shaken things up to see if they can spark their flagging ratings. Beginning Monday, October 24th, The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell will move back to its original time slot of 10 p.m., with Ed Schultz‘s The Ed Show moving up to 8:00.

Schultz will become the second anchor to try and maintain the ratings left after Keith Olbermann‘s defection to Current TV.

Well, it isn’t funny, but Schultz did win Media Research Center’s most biased quote of the year award for 2010:

ALEXANDRIA, VA – The Media Research Center (MRC) today proudly announces that Ed Schultz is the “Winner” of the dis-honor of Quote of the Year for his “Damn Those Conservatives” diatribe on his MSNBC The Ed Show (video below):

“The Republicans lie! They want to see you dead! They’d rather make money off your dead corpse! They kind of like it when that woman has cancer and they don’t have anything for her.”

Not worth commenting on!!! O’Donnell, Schultz, Scarborough, Sharpton (I cannot speak the English language properly), Matthews (spits when he talks), etc., all Morons and Buffoons!!! MSNBC is dying on the vine and....to boot no one is watching!!! I say, let them rant and rave!!! With each word that comes out of their left-wing, liberal mouths, they fall further into the cesspool of permanent obscuity!!! And....Mika in the morning!!! A person cannot be dumber then that brainless and clueless, airhead is!!! Ooops, maybe Joe Biden is the only person in the universe dumber then challenged, little Mika!!! You think???

If they want better ratings I suggest reruns of ‘Mr Ed’. The one from the 1960’s...the talking horse.

Although part of the reason is the hosts themselves,MSNBC's ratings will never get better for the same reason that liberal talk radio ratings were, and are, in the gutter. THE MESSAGE SUCKS.

I miss the old MSNBC with Soledad O’Brien and the computer generated dude who hosted with her.

There are Kool-Aid drinkers and then there's Ed Schultz.

Another exemplary genius of the Left.

a dismal month for O’Donnell, whose total viewership fell 22 percent in September, with the show’s target 25-54 demographic dropping 35 percent in that period
