[See NewsBusters for more.] Ed Schultz's ratings continued to plummet last week, falling to just 41 thousand in a key demographic. So, how did the MSNBC host respond to the bad news? He opened his show on Monday by demanding that other journalists focus more on climate change. Regarding a global warming protest in New York City, he demanded, "Ask yourself a question. How can so many people gather, such little attention?" Schultz assailed his fellow TV personalities: "I think the media is not covering climate change to the way it should be covered because they know that Washington is broken."
