If the White House is trying to figure how it lost control of the debate over healthcare in August, it could take a look at Glenn Beck’s television and radio ratings. The conservative talk radio host, who also has an hourly slot on Fox News every day, has seen his viewer numbers soar even as opponents have pressed companies to withdraw advertising from the show.

In an interview with BOR (I think), he said he had been stifled at CNN. Now, on Fox, he can be honest.

Glenn Beck is getting more attention BECAUSE he’s being attacked by the White House. Did you notice the pretzel-twisting logic that said that Beck’s audience of 3 million is not so great because the opening season of MadMen was 2.8 million. Apples and oranges. Glenn’s at 5, where it’s harder to get top ratings. MadMen is a prime time show. The reporter’s Communist-red slip is showing.

He talks about his family too. How about
Glenn Beck, loving husband and father

There was a thread that was pulled this morning claiming to have evidence to that effect. I only was able to read the headline and a little text, but when I opened the thread it had been pulled.
Tioga mentioned the 90’s.

Glenn is doing the hard-hitting, detailed work that NO other talk-show host is doing these days. God bless him.
To: CodeToad
Well, I hope Beck wasn’t suggesting Obama’s minions could create a natural disaster. I wouldn't put anything past them, power has this way of making people do foolish things, especially those like Bam (and his minions) with his huge chip and narcissistic personality. These people are not stupid, we play right into their hands when we go down the conspiratory path without facts.
There is plenty to investigate ... if only the media would truly do their job. The MSM are the ones most deserving of our wrath IMHO.

Took guts, I suppose, but it was perfect. Wright didn't shriek "God Damn America" in a vacuum. We got to hear him get all wound up, and learn what he was all wound up about first ... the guy's a loon with very little connection to reality.
And Zero went to his "church", faithfully, for years.

Do you happen to know which sponsors dropped him? I’d like to boycott them.

Ah, O’Reilly is ok sometimes. He produces a show that never stops moving. It is easy to watch.
Greta is good in that she will actually pepper an interviewee with questions.
Hannity has gone downhill, imo. He was really carrying the torch after 9-11 but something happened. Maybe it was those planned parenthood commercials I’d hear on his show, maybe it was his failure to stick up for Catholic issues, but I don’t like him as much any more. I don’t trust him.
