The fact is that Beck was costing them money and Murdoch isn't in business for his health. He rode the crazy train as long as it brought in money. As more and more people tired of the circus and more and more sponsors chose not to have their names associated with it, the money dwindled....and so did Beck's days on Fox.

The truth has no agenda.
What is the agenda of those who revel in the silencing of the truth?
Aye, he is wishy-washy though. Says one thing one day, says another another day. Just like Obama. His "truth" is just as flexible.
I do not watch Mr. Beck, but any idea why he is leaving? It seems surprising.
They didn't renew his contract.

Not renewing his contract is akin to firing.
If his ratings and ideology were in line, why wouldn't they renew his contract?
Smart move to end it now while the going is still good, he can still remain as a viable radio talk show personality if he re-tools his act and drops the crazy.
My God, what will the liberals talk about now. They'll have to find a new person to label "wing nut" They may actually start eating their own...
So many choices. This is not a problem at all. REALLY.
