40 Layoffs As Glenn Beck’s ‘Blaze’ Empire Continues Its Decline and Fall
The Daily Beast ^ | 04/28/2016 | Lloyd Grove

Posted on 04/28/2016 1:12:44 PM PDT by austinaero

The axe fell once again on Glenn Beck’s crumbling media empire Thursday as employees in the New York and Washington offices of The Blaze, Beck’s multi-media online operation, along with business staffers in Los Angeles and the documentary unit in Columbus, Ohio, were told their jobs are on the chopping block, according to multiple sources who spoke The Daily Beast on condition of anonymity.

Business is very, very bad for all the anti-Trump people.

For some reason, voters are taking this election very seriously. Total boycott kind of serious. Lock-n-load kind of serious.

I’m leaving the conservative ghetto and getting on the Trump train.

Beck is a crazy person who can't control his pathological grandiosity. Maybe bipolar, just for starters. It has always been just a matter of time before he self-destructed for good.

I am really sad to see him decline this way- he was the first person to tell us al abut Soros, Agenda 21, and Cloward-Piven

No, not really. He was the first who became AWARE of the world at age 40 and thought that for everyone else it was like it was for him----some kind of new discovery. He'd spent a career as a drunken and drugged shock jock---the reconstructed himself as an intellectual as he learned things that conservatives had been learning since their teen years.

He so reminds me of people on Facebook (which I quit years ago) who CREATE a persona, they create a PAST, and act like THEY are pioneers in discovering things long ago discovered by sober people who read books.

The knowledge and awareness most of us take for granted in our 20s and 30s, HE suddenly discovered in middle age, and then PORTRAYED it as enlightenment he'd had all along. A TRUE phony.

Beck has betrayed a lot of folks who really, really believed in him and his “mission”. They will start to talk & it’s not going to be pretty when they do. Beck has ruined himself ... totally self-inflicted.

How is Trump the real deal? In what respect? As a businessman? A politician? A husband and father? A friend? What do your contacts say about him? That he keeps his word? That he’s conservative? That he’s successful? That he’s genuine? That he’s a leader? Can you provide some detail? Please and thank you.

Great list. Add ALL Salem Communications outlets to it.

As to why have these talkers sold out? PAC $$? That’s a LOT of Open Borders PAC $$.

So true. I used to listen to him years ago during the Bush administration and he used a lot of humor to make a point. Now he is all-in with Cruz and is nothing but a broken record, dull and boring.

I didn’t even realize MB had resurrected the Maybach label after killing it off a few years ago when they ran out of drug dealers and rappers to sell it to.

The new one looks like something one would expect from Chrysler.

Beck has a web only channel, so he might have hired the person for that media channel or a plan to shift the content to Youtube / Vimeo or another way to make money.

He rode the wrong horse, and now he will begin doubling down because if Trump wins... Beck is as worthless as plug nickel.

Amen! I actually enjoyed it when he was taking on Obama, Soros and the progressives, then he started thinking he was the reincarnation of Gandhi, started crying all the time and I found that I didn’t know what the hell he was talking about most of the time (I don’t think he did either). Time for Beck to cash in his chips and retire to wherever it is he calls home, which I guess is Colorado or Texas these days...

The problem with Beck is that he is insane. Probably manic-depressive which explains his success and his implosion.

I suspect the fired editor was told that he had autonomy at one time... Now, it’s getting hard to ignore the vast gulf between Beck’s positions, and reality.
