In the wake of the discovery that the Rachel Maddow show has been promoted by multiple fake twitter accounts, a liberal blogger has found MSNBC host Ed Schultz guilty of the same "sleazy but legal" behavior.
A portion of what he found:
"Also, the blog Help The 99ers has examples of Twitter spam involving the Ed Show... and these accounts are different. In these cases there's a connection to an actual company that offers web promotion services.
Here are phrases promoting the show that seem to involve spammers:
Hahahahahaha, what threatening e-mails. #edshow #p2 #p21
Oh boy, Michael .E.Dyson is here-time to get my dictionary! #edshow
#edshow I sure hope the deal gets done! I'm ready to move on to my New Year's Resolutions! Sick of the Cliff!
When you click on the accounts of these people - I've done this repeatedly - you find the same profile: low tweets and almost no followers. Plus... these accounts link to the same website, a service named http://followersdelivery.com/ that sells packages to increase your followers on Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube.
The blogger concludes with an interesting tidbit:
(Full disclosure: As a progressive blogger I've repeatedly emailed Maddow's show with links to my posts, and probably once or twice I think I've emailed the Ed Show. They've never responded, and I suspect I didn't exactly help my chances with this post. Also, if you're a conservative who's reading this, you should know that I'm in favor of choice, gun control, gay rights, and I think Republicans are generally lunatics. But the story is what it is. Come at me, haters.)

Jim, I know we usually don’t allow blogspot stuff, but as the last post on this story went all the way up to Drudge, I hope the finding of this lib blogger are ok. Maybe seeing an honest Lib catching one of their own will convince some.
pathetic... hashtag, hashtag...
Twitter is for Twits.
FB N TWITR are black holes for time.
LOL - we (conservatives) LIKE people who tell the truth. The haters who will go after him are the liberal liars who don't like their deceptions unmasked...
Ping
I doubt the nine people that watch eds show really care.
Not surprising. They are all cut from the same cloth.
Dishonest, liars, socialists, marxists, liberals, DEMOCRATS.
Nuff said.

BTTT
This is how they do it. Smoke n mirrors to appear they and their agendas are popular and mainstream. This concept, along with voter fraud, is why the current POS still sleeps in the people’s house.
“It’s not cheating when we do it.”
See? There it is, as plain as day, but libs refuse to admit to it: if you disagree with them, you are a "hater"!
Must be an MSNBC job. I doubt if Ed is bright enough to figure out setting up fake twitter accounts. Maddow maybe, but not Ed.
#liberalcrapdoesnotsell
MSNBC IS PURE FILTH
LOW-LIFE SCUM OF THE EARTH
THERE, I SAID IT
COME AND GET ME, YOU PUKE-FACED DREGS
