I'd like to see his staff carry on the show without him.
I found out things watching that show that were not
ever reported on other media.
(and yes, I checked them out on my own.)
I wonder if it is more a situation of Beck leaving Fox daily lineup as opposed to Fox firing Beck. Seems to me that it's a matter of contracts and has nothing to do with ratings or ideology. The announcement sates he will still do specials. So it seems an amicable agreement.
He wasn't fired:
"FOX NEWS AND MERCURY RADIO ARTS ANNOUNCE NEW AGREEMENT
(New York, NY) Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties."

Yes, a ton of information the media fails to provide.
Not leaving, just changing from his daily show to special projects, likely more indepth than his current daily 60 min. can provide.
Which will likely be better than a daily show monitored by 60 people from the Daily Kos & MM. My my, what ever will they do now? Welcome to the unemployment line suckers!
I am certain his special reports will be much better than his daily show since he will have the time to thoroughly explore aspects of important issues that the MSM fails ,or doesn't see that it is in their best interests, to cover.

Oh please. When they announce that they will work on "other projects together" it is akin to politicians who announce that they are resigning to "spend more time with their families" after they have been forced out of office.
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.

Just couldn't stand that it didn't say he was fired or he was quitting eh?
Not surprising. Opinion polls have been showing support for the teabaggers dropping just as much as Glen Beck's ratings.
