Glenn Beck was back, and with a vengeance! Please forgive me that I’m not a big follower of cable news, and don’t really personally care that much. Besides, this is a ratings site, and my opinions don’t matter, nor does what I think about Beck’s comments, or the issue of advertisers bailing out.
The thing about numbers though, is that they’re not opinion, they are just numbers. And the numbers say at 5pm Beck drew a bigger audience than any show on any network last night other than O’Reilly, and Hannity even among adults 25-54. At 5pm, Beck beat all of the competition combined by more than 50%.

Glenn Beck is OUTSTANDING. Thank you Glenn Beck!
“Backfire” is the only word that can be used to describe the Marxists’ attempt to silence Glenn Beck.
I posted somewhere yesterday that Beck in his timeslot was beating Keef Ubertard by a 2-1 margin in primetime. I was called out on it. Nice to see that I can shove this back in dude’s face and say, “You know what? You’re right—it’s almost THREE-to-one.”
Beck and Michelle Malkin are the only ones exposing the traitors (by name) who have plotted to destroy our country. I do mean expose and not just dance around the issue.
But but but Keeef said he is the most watched cable news program.
If Keeef says so, it must be true.
True!!!!
Looks like Spitball could put the Indian Test Pattern up and get more viewers??
PRay for America and Our Troops
I guess that “prestigous” Cornell AG school degree is devoid of any math courses. Whatever. Maybe if “Meaty-Fingers” Madcow TIVO’s Keef’s show a billion times, they somehow think that counts.
Wait until tonight, when Beck has El Rushbo as a guest.
This news combined with the death of Ted Kennedy, Olbermann may not come out of his mom’s basement today.
Yesterday Mathews brought on one liberal Obama supporter who together with him immediately concluding it was racism and hatred of a black man. Funny, Megn Kelly run s nonpolitical show at 9am and regularly has those angry people on tthat give tons of valid reasons for being mad, none Mathews could find in his impartial investigation.
The noise you hear will be the Left’s collective heads exploding.
I thought Michelle Malkin was outstanding yesterday, and she is easier on the eyes than Rush.

LOL. So true.
what are the numbers in parenthesis and did he beat out the network shows at 5pm?
I guess the advertisers’ boycott was good “advertisement” - so to speak.
BECK RULES, WE’RE WITH YOU GLENN, ALL THE WAY BABY, AND I AM A “SICK TWISTED FREAK” ...
