Glenn Beck’s Media Empire Implodes. Again
Daily Beast ^ | 6-22-18 | ANDREW KIRELL

Posted on 06/23/2018 9:35:30 AM PDT by tennmountainman

a firebrand Glenn Beck’s multimedia empire TheBlaze appears to be on its last legs after another round of layoffs and after a prospective high-profile buyer lost interest.

The right-wing cable and digital media company—founded by Beck shortly before he exited Fox News in 2011—fired another round of staffers this week, shrinking a workforce that has already been reduced to less than 50 employees, according to two sources who spoke with The Daily Beast on the condition of anonymity. The two sources also confirmed that more than a dozen employees had been laid off over the past several days.

“Looks like loony Becks attempt to jump on the Trump train isn’t working.”

Too little too late. The Trump Train has left the station and Beck arrived too late to get on board.

I didn’t know he was even still around. Does he still cry all the time?

He behaved badly at the wrong time. He cannot un-ring the bells.

But tune in tomorrow and he'll have a story that will blow things wide open. You just won't believe what he'll tell you tomorrow.

Firebrand? More like brand X. Fire starter. Cereal wearer. Fart lighter.

I don’t see a way back for this guy. He turned off what little was left of his base by being a never Trumper. He should set much lower expectations. Try to keep his radio show. Write some books. do research.

I wish Liberty Daily would stop linking to The Blaze. I don’t ever want to give it any clicks.

Looking back, Becks recent attempt to jump on the Trump train,
by wearing a MAGA hat and endorsing Trump was a desperate move
to sell his business to another conservative site.

Back is on our local station from 9 a.m. to noon. I can’t even hardly stand his voice anymore. I think my biggest beef with Glen is that he sits there and makes inane jokes all day long and then a caller calls in and makes a joke and he scolds them.

Don’t cry for Beck. He’s got $20-$30 million stashed away personally.
