TheBlaze and CRTV Merge to Create Conservative Media Powerhouse (Exclusive)
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | 8:00 PM PST 12/2/2018 b | Paul Bond

The homes of Glenn Beck and Mark Levin are combining to create Blaze Media, which insiders say will reach 165 million people via television, digital platforms and social media.

Glenn Beck and Mark Levin are teaming up by merging TheBlaze and CRTV to create a conservative-media entity dubbed Blaze Media, which they say will reach 165 million people via television, digital platforms and social media.

Beck and Levin are set to officially announce what they are calling a merger of equals on Monday, but Beck tells The Hollywood Reporter that the move could be just a next step at building a powerhouse, independent media company.

“This is the beginning of scale,” he says. “Anyone who loves the Bill of Rights and pursues honesty, I want them all in. We’re an open book. Let’s talk,” he says.

“Tens of millions of Americans have had it with the biased, ideologically driven mainstream media outlets that sanctimoniously advance their own agendas under the guise of ‘news’ and ‘journalism.’ Conservatives actually believe in a free press and the rest of the Constitution,” said Levin.

He added that his intention with the merger is “to further expand and offer the public an alternative to liberal media group-think.”

really don’t understand why someone else—even OANN—hasn’t picked up Mark’s variety show, which would class up any television network. ------

OANN is great.

I learn more on there in two hours than I learn on FoxSNOOZ in two weeks.

LOL ..... that's about as accurate as your prediction, what was it --- "56 to 58 Senate seats".

Save the silly race horse quips. They are mostly useless.

NEVER get involved with Glen Beck.
Mark has made a tactical error

Both of them are controlled opposition

That's been my opinion for a long time.

You're missing out if you ignore Glenn.
And ... you're letting your "mind-numb-robot-ness" of Trump ... lead you astray.

Not sure if Levin is right to partner with Beck.

I disagree.

I feel the same way about folks who still listen to Beck.

We’ll just have to agree to disagree :-)

I had never heard Mark Levin until he got the Sunday night show on FNC.

I LOVE his interviewing style.

A FRiendly reminder, for folks who may not know about the judgement owed to Mark Steyn, by CRTV....

Katz & CRTV vs Steyn: A Cut-Out’n’Keep Guide

In February 2017, Cary Katz and CRTV fired me, canceled my TV show, and sued me for $10 million. They lost, comprehensively.

At which point they decided to double-down on their lawlessness and mendacity and refused to be bound by the judge’s award of damages. Within days of CRTV’s defeat going public (”Conservative Pundit Wins $4M From Network That Fired Him”), they then re-sued me, this time for a combined $20 million. So, for the benefit of the many lawyers among our readership who purport to be interested in this kind of thing, here’s a handy guide to vexatious litigant Katz’s many cases against me...

Mark Levin and His “Great Patriot”

For our non-American readers, I should explain that Mark Levin is one of the most successful radio hosts in the United States. In fact, a few days ago he was nominated for the National Radio Hall of Fame. I also want to re-emphasize what I said last week: I did not pick a fight with CRTV. They picked a fight with me - and two judges have now ruled that they lost, comprehensively.

The day after the New York Supreme Court confirmed my victory over CRTV, Mark Levin took to his radio show and gave a leisurely retrospective of the stellar career that has brought him to that Hall of Fame nomination. And toward the end, perhaps to neutralize any damage from the court decision of the previous day, he rhapsodized about CRTV’s sugar-daddy and lone investor, the student-loan billionaire Cary Katz. Here’s what he said (you can hear the audio by clicking the button above):....

That Heather McDonald interview was on Levin’s FREE (if you have cable/provider) FoxNews show, that airs on Sunday nights.

The replays of Levin’s Fox show is usually up, on the Fox website, or on YouTube, by the following day after it airs.

No need to subscribe to anything Beck.

Here is a very good Mark Levin interview with Victor Davis Hanson. V.D.H. begins at around the 2 min. mark.

Mark Levin is GREAT !
I'd LOVE to see Trump appoint Mark Levin in charge of a SPECIAL INVESTIGATION into Robert Mueller's ABUSE OF POWER, and Robert Mueller's FALSE STATEMENTS to the FISA Court.
David Limbaugh could be called in to assist Mark Levin investigate Robert Mueller (and all his minions), and the DemcRATS' crimes with Russia, including an investigation of 'Uranium One' (and ALL THOSE who authorized the sale of our strategic minerals).

They should drop the name “Blaze” in forming this merge for it to effectively reach those intended. Who needs leftovers from Beck.
