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 Becks 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.

Glenn has surpassed O’R by now, huh?
Great question!
Love the headline: Sparks Outrage.
YEAH, AT THE WHITE HOUSE!!
Thank you Glenn for what you do.
How dare he question the Messiah and his minions.......
Shining the light of truth on the most thoroughly corrupt, Marxist and progressive public officials takes some serious Kahunas.......
Even back when he was on CNN I thought Beck was just about the best commentator on television. Probably THE best.
Since I ditched the cable and sat TV more than a 1 1/2 years ago I haven’t seen him, but it sounds like he’s getting even better.
Former?

That really is an open question in my book. I remember efforts to brand George W. Bush as a cocaine user even though there was no real evidence, Obama admits to having been a cocaine user at one time and it is ignored. Some balanced reporting we have!
“Really important that we get that into the story isn’t it
Mr Beck, a recovering alcoholic”
Only fair if they include:
“President Obama, a recovering cocain and marijuana user who still relies on alcohol while president”
.....Where is the statement Obama, a former Cocaine user?.....
The whole statement is “Obama the cigarette smoker and former cocaine user.....”
Ping
I worry for our outspoken citizenry, that the chicago thugs in the white house might have them rubbed out.
Glenn is a breath of fresh air. I love the truth that he brings to the public, along with a dose of entertainment. I especially love the way he makes the libs cry.
PLEASE DO NOT POST LEADS TO STORIES THAT REQUIRE REGISTRATION TO READ. THANK YOU.
>>I understand Glenn Becks ratings have sky rocketed! People are protesting Obamas Administration and it is evident that Becks honesty is helping. He is only saying what we ALL HAVE been THINKING!<<
Replace Glenn Beck with Rush Limbaugh and it’s 1993 all over again.
What I find interesting is that people, back in the late 90’s, used to say things like “there is only one Rush” or “what will happen when Rush dies?”. Stuff like that.
I guess we know. And to be frank, it isn’t just Glenn.
Glenn Beck is the Rush Limbaugh of TV..............
Before the Obama house would do document dumps after 3pm so Rush could not comment, now with 5pm Beck they can’t.
I think what the WH fears most is MORE conservative hosts of talet will be taking to the air because THIS MEANS VIEWERS AND MORE VIEWERS MEAN ADVERTISING DOLLARS.
how many failed left wing start ups this year so far? 10, 15, 20? We see the promo commercial and the show vanishes in a few weeks.
(never forget CNN had beck FIRST!)
I wonder how many more times people will feel compelled to reming us that “Beck is a recovering alcoholic”?
They’re sure trying, aren’t they? They want to eliminate the 1st, but as long as we have the 2nd, they can’t.
[…] also sparked protests when he likened Mr Obama’s plans for a civilian corps to Nazi stormtroopers […]Ah, what happened to mandatory civil service? Oh right, it wasn’t mandatory anymore after people protested. So, how many Obamabots have volunteered so far?
I would also say he could afford to tone down the dramatics a bit.
Why???
