Glenn Beck’s Media Empire Implodes With Layoffs, Ex-Employee Calls Him ‘Professionally Bipolar’
The Daily Caller ^ | 08/31/2017 | Betsy Rothstein

Posted on 08/31/2017 2:44:54 PM PDT by ForYourChildren

Glenn Beck‘s TheBlaze is saying farewell to 20 percent of its employees.

And Beck may cry.

“What happened?” he asked in a highly emotional piece that he posted to his website and to Medium that makes it sound like someone is literally ripping out his spleen. “My heart is heavy today.”

“Today, we said goodbye to just over 20 percent of the combined workforce of Mercury Radio Arts and TheBlaze (with most of the changes happening at TheBlaze),” he wrote. “We are losing a lot of talented and committed colleagues, who are some of the best human beings I know — some have been friends of mine for 30 years.”

Somebody pass the tissues.

Every mormon I have ever known, met, or worked with, has been ‘Professionally Bipolar.’

It goes with their religious mental state of mind.

IT’s what happens when you forget job #1 is to ATTRACT AND KEEP AN AUDIENCE.

Then you go out and piss-off half of them, by being so politically biased it is sickening.

This is why Beck seemed to go nuts.
Someone was funding is operation to get a NeverTrump person on the ticket. (and thus give Hillary the win)

Once Trump was elected, the $$$ stopped and with Beck killing off his base, he was doomed.

Patriot News should buy Beck out and he should retire, before he does any more damage. People’s lives and families depend on it.

Let Hannity, O’Reily, Levin (CRTV) all absorb it into one new powerhouse to replace the seriously degraded FOX News.

If he wasn’t such an anti-trump dullard, he would be swimming in viewers and cash.

Oh well!

I was wrong. I predicted years ago Glennie would storm the stage in a rain coat. "Mad as Hell".

So far - not yet. But I won't be surprised when that time comes.

Some time ago I came to realize that every time you listen to a Glenn Back show you lose about 3/16 of an IQ point. Depending of course upon where you start, by the time you’ve listened to about 20 shows, the difference will be noticeable.

If the radio is playing and he comes on, I am compelled to get up and switch stations or turn the radio off. It’s like staring at a solar eclipse. It’s damaging, IMO.

Same here!

About once a year, I tune back in to see if the crazed lunatic from Skagit county is still on the air, then I go away again.

Beck grew up in Mt. Vernon, Washington state, the county seat of Skagit County
