Of course, Beck has been getting almost the exact same number of viewers as Bret Baier and Shephard Smith’s 7pm show. I think his replacement will probably do the same without the advertiser problems.

Public bet. How much?

You’re wrong, of course.
Unless he is replaced by someone LIKE him or better. Say.... Levin.

I see we have another person who apparently can't wrap their heads around the business of television. It quite simply is NOT only about how many people watch. It is entirely about how much advertisers will pay. Usually those two dovetail, sometimes they don't. It Beck's case, they didn't.

Whoever replaces Beck will easily attract advertisers better than Goldline and PetMeds. It's business 101.
