I don’t blame you for being paranoid...but let me explain...

Glenn has a contract- only during the “end” of the contract are you able to even discuss and negotiate moving to another network..

Glenn followed his contract, and signed onto FOX...

I bet you Glenn’s contract is not actually up until Spring of 09...

So— CNN still pays him the remainder on his contract, but pull his show...they are not bound to air his show, but are bound to pay him as long as Glenn does not break the contract...

in Glenn’s contract, I am sure he is not allowed to appear on any other networks...otherwise you would see him at least “contributing” and appearing on other networks...

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...

FOX would have done the same with any of their main show personalities...

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!".
