Glenn Beck Just Signed A New Contract For $100 Million
Business Insider ^ | 06/11/2012 | Jim Edwards

Glenn Beck once said that leaving Fox News Channel, as he did in 2011, would earn him $40 million by allowing him to concentrate on his own web-based subscriber operation, GBTV.

Now The New York Times reports he has signed a $100 million contract for his radio shows to appear on Clear Channel Communications stations across the country.

The move puts the pressure on Rush Limbaugh, whose advertisers abandoned him earlier this year after he called a college student a "slut" because she supported contraception coverage in healthcare plans. The Times said:

Now carried by more than 400 stations, the show typically ranks No. 3 among all news-talk radio shows, behind Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, so the contract extension brings a measure of stability to local stations that carry it.

Limbaugh's contract is worth $200 million per year. Beck's is worth $100 million over five years.

From what I understand (and I could be wrong), Mormons believe THEY are descended from that lost tribe of Israel.....is that right?

Very interesting, thank you.

I tend to agree with you-—I doubt Beck ever saw your article, unfortunately.

American Indian, they (lds) do beleive that these folks are descended from the lost tribes. There have been dozens of studies and genetic testing that demonstrates that AI, are in no way descended, yet mormons will tell you these were biased.
They (lds) sometimes refer to everyone else as gentiles, so conversely that would make them Jews or the “chosen”.

The following Youtube video is an example of how LDSinc lies to students, using a sprinkling of truth but injecting the lies at strategic moments. Sadly, Glenn Beck followed this same tactic, sprinkling some truth in with the lies he intended to support.

To fully comprehend the deceptions one would need to have an in-depth understanding of the history of the Decalogue Stones and the language nuances associated with them. The speaker deceives the young minds by inferring the writing is 'pre-Columbian' and the mound pre-historic. The actual facts of where the stones were found in proximaty to the mound is another purposed falsifying of the data.

Here is Glenn Beck's presentation of the deception, as he presented it on his show as if factual. I see why those handling him don't want facts to reach him before he goes onair to present such deceptions as the LDSinc are pushing:

I warned Glenn at the time that his onair presentation would come back to bite him because he was presenting false data which scholarly work had debunked. He returned to my email that he appreciated my writing, that he gets ... blah blah blah, a form response which indicates a staff reads through and filtersz his email before he is allowed to read some of it.

I wonder how much of that will wind up in Utah.

...at the very least; 10 per cent.

And why does it matter? Its Beck's money to do with as he pleases.

Who said it mattered? Someone asked a question; I answered it. Geez...

“I suspect that his sidekick, Pat Gray, who had a hand in his conversion, sticks close by to make sure no one puts a doubt in Beck’s head.”

I’ve wondered about Glenn’s radio show. The men that joke
with him, they sound younger, is one of them this Pat Gray?
And our his co-hosts all Mormon?

thank you,

I don't believe the youngest of the guys, Stu, is a Mormon, although I could be wrong about that. Pat Gray is as old as, or older than Beck; he's a longtime Mormon who sold Beck on the religion.

Thanks for explaining. I respect Glenn Beck for his intentions but I can’t get past his mistaken belief in Mormonism.

Glenn and his sidekicks on the radio program spend too much
time laughing and joking about events. They are all very, very silent about what Mormons profess.

Remember how Romney got angry when asked specifically about
Mormonism by a reporter?

I do recall that, now that you reminded me. Thank you.

Yes, it’s strange that Beck is such a good digger and researcher, but not when it comes to Mormonism. I believe he sees it as the crutch that rescued him from alcohol.
