Fox News firebrand Glenn Beck facing axe

"Best news... all day", Ahhh... the post is so very revealing.

It makes their day, and Libs cheer when Conservative sounding individuals are removed or even rumored to be removed from the airwaves. Such open minded individuals. How tolerant of thee.

Nice to see you are for having all sides heard.

Myself, I lamented when Keef-O-bermann was booted, and Air Amerika went off the air for sources like those served a very good purpose. They reveal the narrow, intolerant leftist mindset they and their followers possess.

lol...says the poster who gives lessons in partisanship.

Liblady, do you ever answer questions or just show up, make and absurd statement and then run? Why compare a 9:00 show to a 5:00 show? Beck has triple the ratings of Matthews and all other competitors but you have to go to 9:00 to justify the thread topic. Last I checked Beck isn't competing with 9:00 shows.
 
HAH! Crazy ole Glen Beck! that nutter! why a few years back do you know what he was telling people? that the stock market was in trouble, that the mortgage industry was going to drag it down, and you should get your money out! :lamo: no no no, i mean it! he really said that. what a loon?

OH, and THEN, and THEN, he started telling people that they should own some gold, back when Gold was, like $780 an ounce! :rofl: yeesh, this guy is so nuts!


but wait, WAIT, best part! last year, he said that we would see inflation in food, energy, and clothing prices! I KNOW!!!! crazy, right?


ahhh, what an over the top nutjob....


Ah I get it... saying the economy is bad when it's obvious to everybody else... is exatcly the same as predicting the end of the world.

I guess if a broken clock is right twice a day... it's right all day?
 
link to list of sponsors that left FOX NEWS please.

Also, Madcow is gaining? She wasn't even in the top 10 posted earlier in this thread... yet you claim she's gaining? :rofl:

You can find that information here. It's a whole website dedicated to silencing Glenn Beck. Freedom of speech be damned. Or as they will say, they are just exercising their free speech by trying to shut someone else up with boycotts and smears.

... do you have a clue as to what 'freedom of speech' actually entails? For somebody who follows a constitutional wannabe whore like Beck, I find it very revealing that you don't know what the first amendment is about.

I once predicted the Yankees would win the World Series. Also was right another time when I said the Celtics would win the NBA crown. I will not tell in what years I made the prediction of for which year those teams were suppose to win. Let us just say that I was right on both accounts since both did just what I predicted they would do.

The key thing is making the prediction tied into the event and saying when it is going to happen.

In other words - WHEN did Beck make his 'predictions' and what was his time frame when this was going to happen?

Why do liberals spend so much time trying to silence conservatives? That's all I want to know. Without an explanation I'm left to assume they only believe in speech they agree with.

It aint me babe... er ... Barb. It ain't me your'e aiming at. (apologies to Mr. Zimmerman)

I favor putting Mr. Beck on the tube as often as possible and lets get him off that little cable network and put him on CBS , NBC or ABC where he really can expand his audience. I want him seen by as many of the 310 million Americans as is humanly possible.

I don't think that Roger Ailes is cryin' alligator tears right now.
 
Why do liberals spend so much time trying to silence conservatives?

Ah this is called a loaded questions. Both sides spend equal amounts of time trying to silence each other. Liberals have boycotts and rallies. Conservatives have 'family groups'.

That's all I want to know. Without an explanation I'm left to assume they only believe in speech they agree with.

If you weren't such a dishonest little ignorant troll maybe I'd bother showing you what the first amendment is about. You have the right to be a moron and I have a right to boycott your show. Don't like it? Move to Utah.
 
Just out of curiosity...to all you intelligent folks...what the **** do you CARE about Glenn Beck for in the first place? Do you watch him? Do you listen to him? Dear lord...WHY??? Is your cable/satellite broke and you can ONLY get Fox News? And if you dont watch him, what the **** are you doing trolling sites like Media matters to read about him for? WTF is wrong with you people??? No available hobbies where you come from???

As a conservative type...I can tell you that if it werent for the people posting their daily OHMIGODIVELOSTMY****INGMINDOVERGLENNBECK threads Id never even see his name.

I honestly could care less about Glenn Beck. I just find it humorous that people are actually defending the guy and then bashing someone like Rachel Maddow. Glenn Beck is essentially like a professional wrestler, in that he's there for the purposes of entertainment, but he's also way over the top. Rachel Maddow hosts a liberal news show. I personally just found it humorous.

Barb, we have talked about this before and while it seems that there are people out there who do want to silence conservatives, there are people like myself who will fight to make sure that everyone, conservative, liberal, moderate or whatever is heard. Personally I would do that because it is the morally correct thing to do, not to mention that it is apart of your right as an American to freedom of speech/the press.

I watched rachel Maddow for a while...she is actually decent usually...until she decides she has to be Keith Olberrman in drag. Which is pretty much why I have abandoned network and cable news period. Far better news sources on the internet, and anyone that finds all of that mindless bull**** on the TV 'entertaining'...seriously...read a book or something!

maybe thats why the mindless drivel here bugs me so much...I dont watch it, dont listen to it...come here to escape from it, and 3 out of every 5 threads is more of the same mindless bull**** ripped right off the pages of foxnews.com or mediamatters.
 
fox news has lost sponsors due to beck's moronic insanity. rachel maddow is steadily gaining on beck..........and no, beck isn't way ahead in the important demographic. in fact, hannity and o'reilly outdraw him.

Saddly yes. Hannity is one of the worst Americans in the public eye I can think of. He causes a huge amount of harm to this country. I feel he is 10x worse than Michael Moore. Why? Because he is an excellent salesman implanting poison into the weak-minded in this country. The man spews toxic thoughts on behalf of the republican think tank. Its NOT about being honerable or being a good American. Its about changing weak minds into a radical hate-filled mind burrito. (thats my quote... you cant use it without my permission :) )

To be honest, I've been trying to steer clear of politics in general lately. It's all getting so absurd and over the top. Obviously, I'm not doing a very good job of it since I'm posting here, but still. :)

:shock:
My, my...Try reaching down the back of your jeans and unwadding your panties. You'll feel much better.
Then be a good little liberal and write a letter to Roger Ailes telling him to fire Beck.
Conservative speech must be silenced!

But do you find people trying to silence those on MSNBC?
 
Wouldn't a fall in viewers be expected? I'm sure he lost viewers simply because mid-term elections are finished which led to a loss in interest. I'd like him off the air but there is no way, his ratings will pick back up come early to mid 2012.
 
The "weak minded" are "poisoned" on both sides of the political spectrum. Identifying a Maddow or Ed Shultz as any less poisonous than Hannity or Beck is being dishonest. What I don't see usually are the individuals squawking about one side of the issue, squawking as loudly about the other side. If Hannity is poison then so is Maddow. I may have missed Catz OTHER post about her day being made about Olberman, Maddow, Shultz, etc...

I think both sides try to silence each other all the time, or at least outyell each other. That's actually a huge part of the problem.

If you could care less, it means you care.

Or, silly me, is it just your command of grammar is as acute as your grasp of issues?

Actually, no. It really means I don't care about Glenn Beck. If I cared, you'd see me getting up in arms about the guy. I don't.

Or, silly me, you could quit your baiting and trolling attempts and actually discuss to topic at hand.
