O’Reilly comes across as a pooly informed, pompus ass most of the time.
At least Beck does his homework, but it isn’t a message most want to hear. People had reather stick their head in the sand.
He is poorly informed. He isn't even on live. The news has evolved by about 3 hours from the time he tapes in the afternoon. Then he has those ridiculous fluff segments. He doesn't qualify as a conservative analyst, so I don't watch him any more.
Right on about O’Gasbag. Beck is a different story. He’s well-researched and he’s telling people how it really is. That’s a difficult sell. I know there are nights when I pass on Beck because his truth-telling is really a downer. The other reason for the decline in FNC in my opinion is Fox Business new evening lineup. Napolitano and Bolling are great, as are Cavuto and Stossel. Pew ( aptly named) should ad in Fox Business to the FNC numbers. I’ve moved to FB and I imagine so have a lot of others who don’t like O’Reilly or for that matter Greta Van Cistern. Hannity is probably still the best, but he tends to be a shill for the kind of Republicans that I loathe. All of them give Reverend Al too much air time, and they let Morris peddle his monthly book offering.
Agreed, I watch Fox now to catch Beck, that is about it, BoR lost me yrs ago, his no spin zone is anything but, and the man really should brush up on his topics and guests information as he comes across as a singularly unprepared loudmoth who just runs over guests commentary, half of the time with just poor facts to try and back it up.
Also think hard times means less cable subscriptions.
He has a breezy, flippant, detached style like he doesn't give a crap about anything except collecting his 14 million dollar paycheck. His flashes of anger and involvement look faked. Plus all he has on are "Fox News commentators" and most of them are vacuous women to pull in the female viewers. A useless show that is taped at 4PM EST because his show on the day of Japan's earthquake said nothing about it
I can’t listen to him (Beck) it is not sticking my head in the sand it is just how much doom and gloom can anyone take in one day.
On radio, i started listening to BOT radio and at least I have some hope. :)
