Glenn Beck tops Bill O’Reilly
Charleston Daily Mail ^ | 9/8/2009 | Don Surber

Friday’s cable TV news ratings are out.

The No. 1 show was Glenn Beck — at 5 pm.

Hahahahahahahaha.

Once again, the moronic attempt to boycott a network TV show has backfired.

Big time.

Not only that but the White House operative who arranged that leaning on advertisers — Van Jones — is out of his job.

0’Reilly’s timeslot should be given to Glenn.
0’Reilly’s time has passed.
Glenn is the new king of cable talk.

Who the heck is Bill O’Reilly?? Is it similar to the artist formerly known as Prince?

When Bill O. kissed Obama’s butt before the election, he lost about 1/2 of his viewers. Including me...

I started watching because of the boycott. Now, because I’m watching my whole family and some friends of mine and other relatives are watching, because of the boycott.

LOL! Olberman and Chrissy Matthews must be having strokes or tingles up their arms.

O’Reilly should go back to Inside Edition, Shep Smith should go to the gay pride channel, Beck should get O’Reilly’s 8 pm slot and Lou Dobbs should get Beck’s 5 pm slot.

I used to like Bill. I didn’t always agree with him but I thought he was reasonably smart. After the Bambi butt-kissing I stopped watching.

Bill O’Reilly is really not all that liked by most folk that I talk to.

He’s got the most prime of slots on Fox and Fox has every other cable news network beat by miles. Thus O’Reilly gets the biggest ratings.

It’s really NOT all about O’Reilly is what I’m saying here.

Yeah, his time slot should go to Glen.

Good business sense would make this so.

Anybody else catch BO’s put-down of GB when he said that Van Jones wasn’t “big” enough for him (BO) to go after? What a juvenile.

I couldn’t believe O’Reilly actually told Glenn that van jones was a low man on the chain and didn’t have any pull. He was diminishing his role as czar. For heaven’s sake, the guy would have had control of an $80 billion budget plus the power to delegate all those “green” jobs.

Did you see O’Reilly tonight? Glenn said during his show that Bill had summoned him.

Then Bill minimized the takedown of Jones, saying he was a litle guy, the left-wing isn’t important and communism isn’t really a threat.

It was unbelievable.

Boy, I wish I could watch Glenn Beck, even once. He’s on at 2pm and again at 11pm. Wrong for my schedule.

BOR lost me when he attacked Free Republic and called us ‘a hate site’!! >:-(

We’ve been boycotting him ever since. (I’ll watch his substitutes like Laura Ingraham though.)

O'Reilly still brings in the listeners - and that's important to our side - it's little sheppy smith that could go - he has the lowest numbers, by far, on the prime time line up. And that would be a great slot for Glenn...
