I heard him on Pat Gray’s show the other morning say that they cancelled him once he signed the contract, and that Spring means January.

I agree. Geraldo needs to go back to being jerry springer lite with the rest of the no talent hacks in the alphabet networks.

Well, if that’s the case, don’t tag the whole network. I’ve seen O’Reilly time and again try to pretend that he’s this objective “in-the-middle” guy and he maintains his image by going after both the left and right. He’s absolutely wrong because there is no comparison between the right and the far left, but he has displayed this tendency before ... remeber the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. He virtually ignored all the evidence and arguments put forth and simply attacked them. Of course you can easily find fault with his rationale, which is that veterans that knew John Kerry had amassed a wealth of information that shattered John Kerry’s remake as an honorable veteran shattering the illusion of honorable service and further highlighting his Fonda-like attacks on the war and veterans. By this you take it that O’Reilly is essentially saying that John Kerry could not be questioned at all about his service even though he was trying to become the next Commander-in-chief...which is absurd.

CNN recently silenced Glenn Beck, probably because he is revealing the truth about Barack Hussein Obama and the direction the Marxists running the Democrt party are heading.

FACE FACTS....liberalism does not sell ERGO, be a fake conservative because that is the only way one can make money in the industry. NEVER trust a talking head that says a poxs on both your house, that is code for I am working both sides to get ratings... that goes for that big phone Dobbs too..

BTW - you are still a lick...

I think Fox grabbed GB because he was cutting into Shep's ratings. I don't know that for a fact I can't get the rating comparison.

I didn’t see that... I can’t even see why anyone would label FR a hate site - you’re not getting this info second hand, are you?

As for FOX, whether you like them or not they are bringing in the audience and bringing up all the news on Ayers and Rev. Wright.

In short, be thankful for Fox, unless you’re a renegade from DailyKos and HuffingtonPost.

Vote McCain/Palin on 4 November!

Please give me a very detailed example what “you are still a lick” means.

I have only spent only about 6 years of my entire life in the U.S. and am not up on what appears to be gutter terms. But I don’t know. This is why I am asking.

I have a feeling the mods and I would like a further detailed explanation.

Waiting for your very detailed explanation.

CNN just yanked his show off the air- but he will lose the money
they still owe him if he goes on TV before that contract is up...


I agree with you about all the likely "contractual obligations".

At the same time, I suspect there were grins all around the
CNN executive boardroom when Beck's TV show was pulled.

The CNN execs probably patted each other on the backs and we're saying
"Thank G-d Beck only has his radio show to communicate his hate
speech to all those bitter people clinging to their guns and religion.
We're certainly not cupable if Our ObamaMessiah loses the election!".

So THAT’s where he’s at!! I thought maybe he was taking a weeks off or something. I will miss him for the next couple months. Best commentator on TV. He says he’s “not a journalist” which may be one of the many reasons I like him so much. And contrary to some very uninformed individuals on this thread, he is not libertarian, he’s as conservative as they come.

He has some excellent and informative shows. I only watched it 3 or 4 times on CNN, but will probably watch more often when he’s on FOX.
