Beck has informed the public on so much in so little time

Hannity LOl what a joke he is, a cowardly man who will not have anyone talk about conservative social issues, who likes ot have his liberal pals on like Bob B and other elitist snotty nosed left wing loons from Manhattan.

O.r. is just a big arrogant mouth who has been up obama’s ass since he wanted that first interview.

Can’t stand to watch Hannity or O.R any more as they’re both for themselves and their pockets and sadly we still have dopes who watch them and think they’re great

This will end up with Beck really out there in Olbermann no mans land. No following and no outlet to reach people. This is a silly move. His ratings were still respectable at FOX.

Smart move for both Beck and Fox.....

The message would be better formated as specials on Fox...

Odd presser. Sounds like he isn’t leaving Fox News, but ending his tv show. If it is a transition would not then someone like the Judge Napolitano take over the slot and continue with his own spin the show under a new name? What content would Glenn Beck do for the channel? And How is having Joel Cheatwood joining Beck company change things? More questions than answers.

the way FOX is going they will put Olbermann or Gibbs in place of Beck.

Fox gets rid of a guy who has balls and informs the viewers on what is what and who has a bigger audience than most on FOX.

Like I said before the bigots towards mormons, SOros , communists and socialists , plus media matters will be having parties over this as they now can do their dirty work while not being watched as sure as hell Hannity the coward and phony will not .

Hell get rid of cowardly Hannity and his elitist liberal pals he has on every night

Sadly, Beck is the only one I TIVO on Fox along with Bret Baier. Beck can be nutty but he has been a prophet regarding Soros, Islamists, Ayers, Van Jones, they’ll probably fill it in with another Shep Smith show. If they do bring back a show I hope it is “The Big Story” with John Gibson I loved him. Always one of my favorite personalities at Fox.

Beck never was any help on our side anyway. When he called one of the greatest men of our time Geert Wilders a Kook I was done. Then calling the Nazi’s right wing he isn’t only not on our side he is helping drive the left.

These days it seems there's just too much news to handle in an occasional special, and much of the news needs to be repeated to sink in.

I started following Beck in 2003 on radio. I didn’t realize how big he would become. Glenn Beck, while even I at times don’t always agree with him, has become one of my favorites along with Rush Limbaugh and Dana Loesch.

Beck certainly has views on some subjects contrary to those commonly held on FR.

Special reports with the dark sinister music and the conspiracy thick in the air

" If they do bring back a show I hope it is “The Big Story” with John Gibson I loved him. Always one of my favorite personalities at Fox. "

I agree. Beck and Gibson are the only reason I even turned on the TV.

Nobody wants to watch people talk about social issues. Even those of us who generally take conservative positions on those issues, which Hannity does, are much more concerned with the economy, the Middle East and electoral politics.

Beck will be fine. Fox will be fine.

He has the opportunity now to do even more what he wants to do, even greater freedom, and it sounds like he’ll still be a guest on various Fox programs and still involved with Fox. TV as a medium is fast being replaced, or heavily supplemented, by online video and Beck knows enough about that to work well with the changes. I can see him doing better than the Oprah channel.

Fox can put on a show that might not have as many viewers, but would generate more advertising revenue. It is a business.

I’d consider John Stossel.

"Joel Cheatwood, SVP/Development at Fox News, will be joining Mercury Radio Arts effective April 24, 2011. Part of his role as EVP will be to manage the partnership and serve as a liaison with the Fox News Channel.

Roger Ailes said: “Joel is a good friend and one of the most talented and creative executives in the business. Over the past four years I have consistently valued his input and advice and that will not stop as we work with him in his new role.”

“Glenn Beck” is consistently the third highest rated program on cable news. For the 27 months that “Glenn Beck” has aired on Fox News, the program has averaged more than 2.2 million total viewers and 563,000 viewers 25-54 years old, numbers normally associated with shows airing in primetime, not at 5pm. “Glenn Beck” has dominated all of its cable news competitors since launch."

Fox is calling it a partnership. Knowing Beck, this is only good.
