I stand corrected.

Then why is Levin weighing in on this merger at all?

What is his motive?

Levin doesn’t want Mark Steyn to be personally suing him.

That’s my guess.

I thought Beck was stealing stories from Andrew Breitbart?

Could be not remembering properly.

Right before he died, Andrew Breitbart was furiously accusing Glenn Beck of stealing his work.

Call me cynical, but we are talking about the infotainment industry here. I suspect what it is about,more then anything else, is money.

If we come together, we cannot be ignored, dismissed or ‘deplatformed.’ CNN calls it: “one of the most sizable consolidations to ever take place in right-wing media.” It isn’t right wing CNN, it’s American & constitutional.

Was Michelle Malkin a NeverTrumper? I seem to recall that she held off on saying much about Trump at first, but I didn’t know she didn’t like him. She seems ok with him now, no?

An excellent partnership.

He is one of the owners, is he not?

He is right that it’s about liberty. They have a wide range of personalities, from traditionalist conservatives to Trumpist populists to libertarians. What they share is a commitment to liberty, limited government, and the Constitution.

No, at first she was 100% NeverTrump. Then afterawhile she held back. Then became pro-Trump. But first she was a rabid NeverTrumper: Trump was a clown, Trump is a fruad, she was going to expose Trump, etc. Trump then called her stupid and said he would expose her if she didn’t stop it. I’m only mentioning this because there were some people praising Malkin for being pure and bashing other personalities, but forgetting Malkin was one of the original NeverTrumpers.

On the CRTV side, yes.

There is no plan to "take out" anyone. They want as wide a range of personalities as possible.

Where did you hear that Michelle is leaving?

Glen Beck lost me at his big Washington rally. And really turned me with his rabid anti-Trump stance during the Race.
Mark Levin was never Trump on a lower key. Seemed to come around eventually.

My son gave me a CRTV subscription when Mark Steyn was on. We are both Steyn fans.
For whatever reason Steyn left, son called and cancelled the subscription. They refunded his money.

I have no use for Beck, tolerate Levin.

I enjoy Mark Levin a lot. But his show is about 30% advertising now and I now find it unlistenable. He prides himself on providing coherent, thoughtful content, and he does, most of the time. But he can’t complete a thought before he has to launch into a mattress ad or a chair ad or a window blinds ad or a tax relief ad or an employment agency ad and it’s just intolerable.

I was at that rally. It was a great event.

Can’t speak for anyone else but Beck’s Never Trump stand was the last straw for me. His empire has been going down the drain ever since.

Michele Malkin made a wise move to jump out before the abandon ship command is given.
