Beck is Leaving Fox? It doesn’t make Sense!
www.yossigestetner.com ^ | 3/6/2011 | Yossi Gestetner

Posted on 03/06/2011 4:14:27 PM PST by goods

On any given day, Glenn Beck’s show at 5:00 PM Eastern on Fox News, has better ratings than Fox’s Greta Van Susteren’s show that runs at night, prime time shall we say. Susteren, regardless how weak she is versus the others in the evening at FNC, is still stronger than the hot-heads on MSNBC and the losers at CNN. Therefore, it is strange the Drudge Report-posted pending NYT story that Fox and Beck will part ways.

Indeed, Beck being “extreme” may be the reason as to why Beck may end his career at Fox. However if he is extreme, in addition to having ratings way better than Maddow, Shultz and others, maybe MSNBC should hire Beck…

“Maybe he got lured away by MSNBC.”

***

MSNBC would be too dumb to lure away a guy of his caliber. Plus I don’t think Beck would fare well on liberal media. Remember he had a show on CNN before he came to Fox. CNN stuck him on their trashy headline news station.

I’ve recently switched from watching Beck to watching anything on Fox Business. Beck has shot his wad. No reason to watch him anymore. He continues to moan the same story (not untrue, but the same story).

Like I said earlier, I’ll wait until something actually happens, but you certainly bring up some great points.

I think you’re right about the time slot. It’s wretched.

Oh, so the numerous drug commercials are aimed at the below 50 demographic?

Right. And more importantly, this probably stopped Obama from appointing more Van Jones types later on.

Exactly. Beck has been the one closest thing we have to a watchdog in our media ...

Maybe he’s getting ready for Presidential run? I can’t think of why he’d make a major change in his career with this timing.

Beck has a contract. This is just a hit piece by the NYT.
Do not take it seriously.

I know that..but every single time I put him on he’s talking about him. I think he’s made him more important than he really is.

Yeah...good point.

It’s just that the story first first appeared on the New York Slimes website, and well, I had to stop lining my bird’s cage with the NYT because Polly started to complain that it wasn’t worthy of her poop.

The NY Slimes wouldn’t know the truth if it mule kicked them in the face.
