Has anyone wondered...how did Glenn Beck get wealthy so quickly?

I have wondered about Beck for a while, but loved his exposure of the communist network in the US. Since he left FOX...he seems to have changed...and the immediate disregard to the Bundy situation really made me sick. Beck didn't even give the guy the benefit of the doubt and touted the NYT version.

I know he has risen to fame since 2001, ghost written several books, had rallies, etc....but to have a network, now? A base in NY....a major website (so buggy and full of cookies it puts me off).

Does anyone else find this strange?

And claims to be for the liberty movement but cowers at an old gent saying (what he considers) off-colored remarks? Hello 1st Amdmt!

I just don't get it.

He inherited it from the beer his family made.

He had a radio show, and was on CNN, before Fox. I imagine he was a mulch-millionaire years ago but who knows?

Yup, the old fashioned way. No conspiracy required.

Get several million people to listen to you on a regular basis and people will pay good money to advertise to those people.

The other thing- Beck lost his Fox show when he said Obama hates white people, or words to that effect. They went after his advertisers, and it probably scared him. I would not blame him for being somewhat skittish after that. Same with Rush & Sandra Fluke- the left is relentless and will not stop.

The guy has book deals, been a commentator, and so on. Does this question really need an answer?

Why do you care who much wealth Beck has and how it got it?

As long as it was legally obtained, he can be as wealthy as he can be...

After Beck’s comments on Bunday, the BLAZE is no longer in my bookmarks.

Crone of Reid?

Wouldn’t that be Pelosi?
