So Glenn Beck leaves Headline News - and is now sending shockwaves throughout Cable News. Now drawing over 2,000,000 viewers and has only been on Fox since January.
So lets see who the winners and losers are - of this turn of events:
Winner: FOX News Loser: Headline News Loser: The other cable news channels Loser: Bill OReilly?
The 2 ratings giants for a long time have been Sean Hannity and Bill OReilly of course
. and really theyve had very little competition. Glenn didnt stand much of a chance on the CNN channel, but now

I also heard O’reilly DEFEND “populism” once, by saying “that just means you listen to the ‘folks’” LOL.
NO, actually, it means that you have no guts and no leadership ability.
A long time ago, a good Republican/Conservative who went to school with Bore, confirmed what you posted: “He never has, you know. Not Goldwater, Not Reagan, Not Nixon, Not Bush I or II, not McCain, no even a schoolboard member.”
I still vehemently disagree.
Your premise is that O’Deadly’s irreplaceable. Fox is still a capitalist entity, last I checked.
NO ONE, not even O’Deadly, in a capitalist entity, is irreplaceable.
Hannity also brings too many nit wits onto his show.
Given the attacks coming from MSNBC I would say that Beck will get more viewers than expected.
Once again, thank you crazy people on MSNBC.
I’d like to see Beck replace Hannity at 9...Sean is afraid of snowballs; we need someone with more backbone.
Tony Snow, you are missed!
He ought to. The only reason O’reilley has those ratings is because of the time slot. Beck is earning a better slot.
I say dump Shep, leave Hannitty alone Beck goes to 8:00. O’Reilley goes to 5:00 since he doesn’t do radio anymore.
I think O’Reilly’s streak is just about over.
“I say dump Shep”
If Shep reads this, it will make him cry. You know how sensitive Shep is....
Beck seems to be a real conservative...you know, willing to be a conservative even when it isn’t PC. O’Reilly is a self-important, arrogant phony. He is a conservative when he believes it will be most pleasing to his audience.
I agree. Beck should get Hannity’s time slot.
No but he’ll overtake Hannity.
For one thing he is smarter.
I don’t want to watch Womanizer O’Reilly or Blowhard Hannity at 8 and 9 PM, respectively. Looney Beck has lost his marbles.
I’ll take Cavuto on Fox Business over Ragin’ Cajun Cramer on CNBC.
I agree . I did not like Combs very much but Hannity’s show was better with him.
I like Glenn Beck. I don’t know yet if that’s because he’s new enough that he hasn’t jumped the shark yet or not, but right now he’s way more entertaining than that pompous blowhard O’Reilly.
He must be getting good ratings. Msnbc showed clips of him the other morning and all of the panelists were laughing because he got choked up talking about how much he loved his country. They only ridicule that which they fear.
The answer is Flap Jackson in the morning this morning.

While we’re on the subject, what’s with the Hannity - Dick Morris love affair? Doesn’t my old roofer buddy know that this scum-weasel traveled throughout Kenya with the Preposterous One, and masterminded Odinga The Church Burning Jihadist’s (losing) campaign and that it led to the massacre of Christians ... burning them alive in their churches?
Send Sean an email and challenge him to discuss this:
“While were on the subject, whats with the Hannity - Dick Morris love affair?

I trust Morris as much as I trust rattle snakes.
