EXCLUSIVE: The Truth Behind Beck Shutting Down Daily Fox Show
Jeff Dunetz ^ | 4/10/11 | Big Journalism

Posted on 04/10/2011 4:53:55 PM PDT by Nachum

Yesterday I was all confused, when I originally heard the news that Glenn Beck was leaving his daily Fox TV show, I wasn’t surprised. Beck had been dropping hints about it since the end of 2010. He was saying things like, “You must prepare yourselves to carry on without me,” which was a signal that he was either looking for other opportunities, God-forbid had a fatal illness, or that girl he dated finally admitted to the police that he was fully aware of the fact that she was only nine.

On the other hand, the folks at Media Matters claimed victory, they said their efforts to slander Beck had finally worked and Fox was getting rid of him. According to the Soros funded group, Beck’s audience was way down (even though he still beats most prime time cable audiences) and thanks to their efforts, every TV advertiser in the universe refused to advertise on his program (even those in the Gamma Quadrant).

He’s beats every other non-Fox show. Generally only Hannity or Oreily have more viewers.

“Yesterday I was all confused, when I originally heard the news that Glenn Beck was leaving his daily Fox TV show, I wasn’t surprised.”

It’s hard to bring myself to read beyond the abomination of a sentence the article starts with.

He said from the very beginning that a couple of years was all he was going to do. Between the radio show, the TV show and producing all the other stuff it has to be a rough schedule.

Looks like he’ll be doing a lot of stuff for the news FOX digital and produce some specials.

Well, I did read beyond the first “sentence” and found much of the rest of the article displayed a second grader’s command of grammar and punctuation. And this from a site that has the word “journalism” in it.

Yes, the sentence reveals the confusion. I could not read further for fear of becoming confused myself.

I don’t understand why people look at this like it’s a bad thing or a victory for the left. Glenn isn’t the kind of guy to lay down and be mowed over by the left, and he’s learned a lot from them about how to do stuff with the other hand. He has stated repeatedly that “it’s not over but time to evolve.” He has other stuff planned, we just don’t yet know what.

I stopped after the jab about the 9-year old girl. No reason to read on.

Well, don't know; but if not business interests; maybe a 'spiritual' calling of sorts? Whatever, want the Left to continue to be challenged, exposed and intimidated by Glenn. He can do it - and I think he will. While spiritual; he IS a political proselytizer; was before Fox News; and while he may fine tune; do not think he is giving up.
