Insufferable Turd of the Day Award Today’s coveted golden toilet bowl goes to none other than William “Polo” Edwards, former Jackson-area radio personality, Facebook loudmouth, and convicted murderer. Polo (once a co-host on the same show years ago) is now serving life for shooting and killing a man in a dispute over a woman. After burning every bridge in local media, allegedly taking cash from the Lumumba camp to attack anyone who criticized the previous mayor, and spending years race-baiting and threatening people online, he finally crossed the one line you can’t uncross. Now he’s appealing his murder conviction, claiming the judge violated his rights by… making him represent himself after he fired his own attorney two weeks before trial and refused to get a new one. Classic Polo: break every rule, play the eternal victim, cry about the consequences. Host’s closing words on the matter (delivered with a grin):

“He felt ten-foot-tall and bulletproof for years, running his mouth and chasing clout. Turns out he wasn’t. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Enjoy Parchman, Polo. Kiss my entire ass. ”Turd of the Day: thoroughly earned, fully flushed.
