Really?

Link.....other than to a left-wing rag site, please?

He's gone? I don't know because I don't watch Beck, but I think he's still on Fox.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Beck is branching out into a NEW partnership with Fox....isn't he?

I mean, I just KNOW MSNBC would KILL for 2 million viewers a night, which is what Beck has.

Yes. And did you look at the year ago numbers, which has seen a number of FNC shows dive in the ratings? And the 25-54 demographic, which is what they make money off of? What the advertisers pay for? And how Beck is down 30% year-over-year in that demo? And how every single FNC show is down in that demo, to varying degrees? And how Maddow is within a hair of Hannity in that demo on some nights? And how Greta barely wins hers on most nights?

Did you even read any of my post? You asked for a link, I gave it to you, and you cherry pick information to suit your needs. Done.

Glenn Beck's Show On Fox News To End : NPR

Over the past year, however, his ratings were declining and protests led to the withdrawal of hundreds of advertisers.

http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepol...-in-free-fall/

Beck posted the steepest ratings decline for any cable TV news program, averaging 1.8 million viewers this January, down 39 percent from January of 2010. The decline among viewers aged 25 to 54 was an even free fall, 48 percent, to 397,000.

More than 300 advertisers have asked not to be on Beck.

I can't stand Beck. Fox has had him back. I'm getting so that I can no longer stand Fox.

Oh, please! Actually, Beck got HIMSELF fired with his nuttiness and paranoia. So many advertisers pulled out, for starters, especially that loony comment about Obama being, "a racist" (with absolutely no evidence to back up this charge) with "a deep-seated hatred for white people." Even Roger Ailes sees that there's little return on investment with Beck! The guy's a JOKE.

The first step is to ask nicely. If they say no...then you put the pressure on.

I'll not use orbitz ever again unless the rethink their policy.


Because you do not believe in free speech.
Because the US Constitution, means absolutely nothing to you.

When you got fired, did you show up at your old job for weeks and work?

Olberman got fired. Beck is still on the air.
