Out of all of them, hannity is the bottom of my list. I podcast levin, rarely miss rush, hannity, I can miss. Hannity’s approach, here’s who’s comming up, repeatly. But, his conservative values are more apparent than beck’s crying approach. I’ve tried listening to Beck, he’s a failure connecting with me. Beck tries to do conservative, but it’s contrived. So, that’s why I said Levin, Rush and Hannity as my top national shows. hannity is the bottom, better than beck, but not much.

Glenn Beck was doing good on radio before he landed on TV. You might want him to fail, but others don’t. He’ll be followed. If anything Fox News will fail based on people getting angry at these rumors.

I didn’t see anywhere in the article that stated Beck was leaving. If you can find it, please copy and paste it here.

I’m an amateur but from what I see and hear on Glenn Beck’s TV and radio shows .... He just does not have the advertisers he needs. I think the leftists boycott of him had done damage. Beck can have very good numbers as far as viewers& listeners but he needs more quality advertisers paying for air time. This is why his days may be numbered on TV and radio

The whole FNC evening lineup, excepting Beck is wearing thin with me. The Fox Business Channel hosts are eating FNC’s lunch. Napolitano, Cavuto, and Bolling are running circles around O’Gasbag, Hannity and Greta. Greta is especially bad. She so likes the sound of her own voice that anyone with whom she disagrees can’t make a point without having her do a “voice over.”

He's a Mormon lightweight, trying to be noticed by the oh so humble upper hierarchy. He and brother Mitt have goals to become Mormon gods someday.

Just my ever so humble opinion.

I like STu and the other guy on with him. But it might be better if Glenn beck had no sidekicks on radio. People don’t like the banter between the three, them talking over each other or the jokes.

Are you dense? Look at the main article. Don’t make yourself look stupid.

That’s what I see. Beck has the audience numbers on TV&radio but advertisers have been scared off by the leftists/Soros groups. Thus he is not bringing in the $$$$$

There was never a better time for a real 24 hour internet streaming news outlet. Release an app for the various pads, and you’d have a huge built-in audience. You could probably even make a small charge for the app and use it to cover part of your costs. The pad audience has precisely the demographics major advertisers are looking for.

There have been reports in the past of Glenn Beck having unsold advertising airtime.

You can have the best ratings in the world, but if advertisers bail, you cost the station money, you don’t make money.

I have know idea what you are talking about.

The purpose of the show is to make money, if it doesn't poof! There is much that's goes into the profitability of a show, unless you see the books, you won't know how that revenue is calculated.

Well then let he explain. Glenn Beck takes on the left as you should know. So the left coordinated a protest against advertisers. Some advertisers left. The left wants him silenced.

They should dump O’Really and put Beck in his spot. It would be a win/win. Better ratings in that time slot and Beck could reach even more people to expose what is going on in this country.

I'm not a 'huge' Beck fan, watch him once in awhile as I DVR his show. I'm @ work when it's on. Wife is a HUGE Glenn Beck fan. We both hate BOR. Populist, pompous self-righteous ass that he is.

I could support your idea 100%.

Think out of the box...

What are we missing.

Is he going on to a better job?

I.E. communications director for the Palin 2012 campaign.....

Think about it, he and his team has all the media vehicles mastered.

I read the article, the title does not match the article. Perhapse YOU should read the article. This appears to be an opinion editorial about Beck.

The only thing that is discussed about Beck’s employment there is this:

“Joel Cheatwood, a senior vice president of development for Fox News and the executive in charge of the show, thinks it’s silly to suggest that the American viewing public’s romance with Mr. Beck is on the wane — he’s trouncing his competition — but says that keeping the show upbeat is something he discusses with Mr. Beck.”

Now, why don’t YOU copy and paste something in this article that states that Beck is leaving. Because from what I can see, the title does not match, period!
