Beck would beat O’Reilly if he was in a better time slot. Most people aren’t even home from work when Beck is on.

I am surprised Olbermann is the top rated non-Fox show. Of course he would be lower, but Fox only has 6 shows.

What is worse is that Ed Schultz is beating Anderson Cooper. Schultz’s show I believe is at the same time at Beck. Cooper is at 10pm opposite Greta.

I predicted this last fall. It’s natural.

If Beck is offered a drink from Ted Baxter he should take it and then promptly throw it in the nearest potted plant, which will then prolly croak post haste.

I like FNC in this order : 1) Cavuto, 2) Megn Kelly, 3) Glen Beck...

Cant stand OReilly or Hannity. O Reilly is a prostitute and Hannity is a Republican party butt kisser phony.

I think he sees the writing on the wall. Beck is a frequent guest on his show.

In the past I don’t recall O’Reilly having guest like Beck on his show.

I leave work at 2PM [Stock Market] when he is on in LA ... so I’m on the freeway. Then on again at 11PM. Bu tI get up at 4AM to go to work. I cannot stay up that late. So I miss him both slots.

He has horrible hours compared to O’Reilly & Hannity.

It's not just me, but several Fox News watchers I know have stated that Glenn Beck should be in O'Reilly's time slot. His show is far more dynamic and informative - no doubt about it. O'Reilly's purpose is to torment - the right and left. Personally, I think we are being tormented enough by this administration, congress and our horrible economy without having to put up with O'Reilly's pompous personality.

I really wish Bill would get booted to the Greta hour so that Glenn could take that time slot. Beck is far more genuine and his show is hands down, more educational. I guarantee Fox's ratings would skyrocket with Beck in O'Reilly's time slot, plus it would give the blowhard O'Reilly the comeuppance he so richly deserves.

I should add that viewership goes down from Beck to Shep which is odd to me.

I think Beck will move to the 7 PM slot soon.

He might displace Hannity but I don’t think the network would do that in one step, besides doing so would interfere with both men’s radio show schedules.
