Fox News Announces That Glenn Beck ‘To Transition Off Of His Daily Program’

breaking
» 472 comments

Well it appears that all of the posturing and rhetoric in the past few weeks regarding the contemptuous relationship between Glenn Beck and Fox News has lead to something after all. In an exclusive to his website TheBlaze.com, Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts (Beck’s production company) have jointly announced that Glenn Beck intends to transition off of his daily program.

From TheBlaze:

FOX NEWS AND MERCURY RADIO ARTS ANNOUNCE NEW AGREEMENT
(New York, NY) Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties. Glenn intends to transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year.

Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News said, “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards. I look forward to continuing to work with him. ”

Glenn Beck said: “I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and Fox News. I cannot repay Roger for the lessons I’ve learned and will continue to learn from him and I look forward to starting this new phase of our partnership.”

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.

While Beck’s ratings have been down from a unsustainable high of last August, he continued to produced outstanding numbers, particularly for the 5PM slot. But conservative thought leaders had become more and more circumspect of Beck’s conspiratorial theories and “end of days” rhetoric, which lead some to theorize that his days at the cable news leader may in fact be numbered.

Two weeks ago, Mediaite broke news that Beck was hiring Fox News SVP Joel Cheatwood to help manage his production company Mercury Radio Arts and develop new content under Beck’s own brand. Many saw this as the next step in the parting of ways between Beck and Fox, which is somewhat confirmed by the today’s joint press release.

    Ailes knows having a group of idiots leading the GOP is a surefire way to get Obama re-elected. Wherever his new program ends up , it can’t be in primetime, because most of his viewers are in bed by 7 p.m

    Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him.

  • Liberal Tormentor

    Whatever Beck does, he will be successful and that drives you libs absolutely insane with jealousy and rage. Man, I would hate to have to live with such negative feelings all the time. It’s no wonder libs are so cranky all the time.

    Yeah, being reduced from a DAILY show to “specials” is an increase in influence

    Man, the SPIN is going to be hilarious on this page…can’t wait!

  • perceptorii

    So after all the speculation/progressive salivation, Beck finally says, “You can’t win, liberals. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.”

    Murdoch’s son (heir apparent) is moving from London to the States permanently to start taking over from the Senior Murdoch. The last time I checked, he is not a fan of Ailes and his cronies in Fox, Beck is on top of the insane ones in the organisation. The clean up has begun.

    Poor libs. You are so dense.

    “Mr. Beck is a hugely popular figure on Fox News, averaging 2.2 million viewers each weekday, though his ratings have fallen somewhat in the last year.

    Mr. Beck has been contemplating an exit from Fox for some time. Two of the post-Fox options he has considered, according to people who have spoken about it with him, are a partial or wholesale takeover of a cable channel, or an expansion of his subscription video service on the Web. His company has been staffing up — making Web shows, some of which have little or nothing to do with Mr. Beck, and charging a monthly subscription for access to the shows. ”

    In the statement on Wednesday, Mr. Beck said he would be starting a “new phase” of a partnership with Roger Ailes, the chairman of Fox News. “I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and Fox News,” he said.

    Mr. Ailes said in the statement, “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards. I look forward to continuing to work with him.”

  • THE REAL ROYAL KING

    Here is the Guardian’s take:

    “Fox News announced today it is dropping Glenn Beck’s daily talkshow – but in its official statement said the network and the controversial host would work together on unnamed future projects.

    That may just be a face-saving device for Beck and the network, or it may be an attempt by Fox to find a way to use Beck in a form that avoids alienating advertisers.”

    Beck has built enough of a following that he could switch to one show on the weekends and anchor a block, but that’s not what it sounds like from the release, rather I’d expect him to do a series of specials and due to his following, he could even do them in the middle of the night.

    Of course, the “specials” could be something more akin to what’s been hinted about Larry King, but theoretically, quite possibly, FNC could sell Mercury Arts the time and let him do them with his own advertisers, which would be an innovative way to monetize off-hours.

    As for the release being released then pulled, perhaps somebody jumped the gun or who knows, the mystery may be part of the manipulation. Until Beck goes on the air — which should have some great ratings — there will be lots of speculation about what it all means.

    Tell that to Mitchell, who thinks its actually something positive. She couldn’t read through the line, maybe she couldn’t believe what she was reading.

  • catfishjuggling

    This is pretty simple actually. It takes a ton of energy to gin up fake outrage each day. Glenn is probably exhausted.

    Don’t worry. Someone will step up and fill the void. Too large a market to be ignored.

  • Newsjunky

    Ahhhhhh… I knew it was going to be a good day today. Got up at 6 am, full of energy… opened the blinds and window in my office to let the fresh air in, worked hard from 6 to 10 – got a lot done. I knew it was going to be a good day. The birds were singing outside my office window. Then, thought I’d check in here to see if anything was going on and, yeah… it’s a good day.

    Goodbye asshole!! Take your roadshow and your potions and your creepy and insane end-of-days talk and shove them all up your rear end. The TV universe is better off without your embarrassing schtick every day. All these elderly hillbillies who really are brainwashed by your antics can catch you on the radio, I guess.

And will the network make a commitment to end its role as a political operation masquerading as a news station?”

    Mr. Beck has been contemplating an exit from Fox for some time. Two of the post-Fox options he has considered, according to people who have spoken about it with him, are a partial or wholesale takeover of a cable channel, or an expansion of his subscription video service on the Web. His company has been staffing up — making Web shows, some of which have little or nothing to do with Mr. Beck, and charging a monthly subscription for access to the shows. from the NYT

    So it does sound like Glenn has some big plans after his exit from Fox. What it sounds like to me is he is going to become Cenk Ugyur.

    Washington Post and CBS receiving money from Obamacare slush fund
    Two mainstream news organizations are receiving hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars from Obamacare’s Early Retiree Reinsurance Program (ERRP) — a $5 billion grant program that’s doling out cash to companies, states and labor unions in what the Obama administration considers an effort to pay for health insurance for early retirees. The Washington Post Company raked in $573,217 in taxpayer subsidies and CBS Corporation secured $722,388 worth of Americans’ money.

    Editor’s note: After a great deal of speculation about Glenn Beck’s future on television, here is the freshly-inked news release. There will be a couple of key headlines out of this…yes, there is a new agreement with Fox News but this is the first confirmation that Beck will “transition off of his daily TV program” later this year.

    The program has obviously been a great success for Beck and for Fox News, and the relationship between the organizations seems as strong as ever.

    This news release does leave some key questions unanswered for now, primarily, does Glenn have plans for a daily TV or video program down the road? The Blaze will be tracking reaction and speculation about this news release throughout the day. Check back for updates.

    Mr. Beck also hosts a syndicated radio show in the morning. He was estimated to earn about $32 million in total revenues in 2009, the first year that he worked at Fox.

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/fox-news-and-mercury-radio-arts-announce-new-agreement-beck-to-transition-off-daily-tv-program/

    i was wondering if he wanted to stop doing a daily show to get out of NY, or because of his eyes (macular dystrophy). He also has a daughter with special needs (cerebral palsy i think), who knows, he might be needed at home.

    And he does have ADHD…. it’s not surprising if he is bored, and wants to do something else. 5pm is not the best time slot, and he has far greater reach with his radio show, and web site, I think? I’m sure his creative shows take a LOT of work.

    Your picture looks like the pope in drag as a rabbit. As far as delusions, as a mental health professional, Glenn Beck has been spouting delusional beliefs for years.

    The reality is that Glenn is going to disappear and will never enjoy the type of success he had on Fox.

    The Huffington Post sold for $315m and TheBlaze seems like a good start.

    I theorized back on page 2 that one possibility would be that FNC could sell Mercury Arts some occasional time and via my Twitter, I suggested that he may also get a reciprocating relationship with FoxNews.com.

    In addition to the idea of continuing to build his personal brand and the possibility of an Arianna-like deal down the road, it seems there’s also the wildcard of Murdoch in the equation which could open other possibilities, if he’s amenable.

    Sorry about the Scott Brown. I was composing a song about O’Beckerhead to the tune of “John Brown’s Body Lies a Moldering in the Grave” and it was on my mind. I met Little Scotty Walker, of course. My bad. Accept my apology.

    Speaking of Little Scotty Walker, I see that the shoe-in Prosser, the Republican incumbent has now fallen behind Ms. Kloppenburg for Supreme Court and that Abele, the Democrat, has trounced Stone, the Republican, for Little Scotty’s seat as Milwaukee County Executive.

    These moves make sense. The 5 pm Eastern slot was a terrible time period for Beck — but the only one that worked, because of his early-morning radio show. The radio show could not move, because it had to finish before the Rush Limbaugh show — most affiliates carry both programs.

    Plus, the format was not a good fit for FNC — Beck’s show was like an hour-long graduate seminar, and anyone whose ever been in graduate school knows or can imagine what five of these every week would be like.

    Only complete idiots would interpret these moves as a victory for the anti-Beck forces, such as Media Matters and MSNBC.

    And he does have ADHD…. it’s not surprising if he is bored, and wants to do something else. 5pm is not the best time slot, and he has far greater reach with his radio show, and web site, I think? I’m sure his creative shows take a LOT of work.

    Getting out of New York could be part of the reason — Carmelo Anthony is the only person I can recall who’s moved to New York recently, while lots of folks are leaving to escape the high taxes.

    FNC prime time is full. I’ve been suggesting for months that FNC could move the Beck re-run to 11 pm EDT, from the 2 am EDT period, so that more people in the Eastern, Central, and Mountain time zones could watch his show. But sliding the O’Reilly and Hannidy re-runs an hour later would have created new problems. The current prime-time lineup is simply doing too well, so no real reason to mess with it at this time.

    As for spin… my analysis at least makes sense.

    Beck and ” FOX ” will start a brand new Beck & co. channel similar to what Oprah has done. Glenn is one of the hottest properties in the world at the present time and that’s not going to end anytime soon.

    Those that can’t live without their daily life instructions, as well as those that claim to loath him will tune in, probably even more so than today.

    This frees ” FOX NETWORKS ” up to get back to, instead of defending Glenn, being the only ” Fair & Balanced ” and as Bret states each night ” Unafraid ” ” real ” American channel in America.

    ” FOX NEWS ” will still be the only news organization that is truly…of the ” real ” American people, by the ” real ” American people, and for the ” real ” American people.

    3. There are TONS of voter fraud issues taking place. With only a lead of around 200 at this point, it’ll be easy for Prosser to pull it out.
    4. It has been a good day. Glenn

    I’d like to hear more about the voter fraud. I understand thousands of New Black Panther Party members were offering wonderful selections of cheeses for people to change their votes and that thousands of women were bused up from Nuevo Laredo and Piedras Negras to perform provocative and sensuous dances like the Lambada to lure unsuspecting farm boys into the polling places. Does that about sum it up?

    Even if Beck was fired, he does have a pretty loyal fanbase that would follow him anywhere he decides to go. Sure, his ratings have taken a dip, but he’s still more watched than any other cable news show at 4:00 pm (I’m in CST). My fellow liberals, don’t underestimate Beck. He’ll be back in some capacity, that you can be sure.

    I’m not sure the details of why this is happening, none of us really are. If it really is about his daughter and her illness, I do wish him and his family the best. I have also heard of a Beck network being possible. Only time will tell.

    That said, it is really interesting to see this discussion on here.

    It’s basically:

    Liberals–Beck was fired/demoted!

    Conservatives–No he wasn’t!

    I had a very wise VP of sales once tell me that no salesperson is as good as he thinks he is. There is always something bigger than him that makes the success. Unique product. Good territory. Freakish market conditions. Now, he was a VP of sales, so he wasn’t saying that good sales people aren’t crucial. The point he was making is that no matter how good they are they can’t do it without these forces.

    Clearly Glenn and Ailes came to blows here. I have no idea over what. Maybe Roger wanted him to tamp down the show. Maybe he was concerned that Glenn was getting bigger Fox. Maybe they were just arguing over who loves America more. Whatever.

    I know that is hard to handle in the my wide is right, your side is wrong word of this board. But that’s the reality. These two are going through a break up. But, no matter how talented Glenn is (and he clearly is), he would still be small potatoes without Ailes. (Just look at his HLN numbers).

    I am pretty sure that Glenn will do fine in the existing micro world of talk radio, but it’ll be telling if he can succeed without Ailes. My money in this game would be on Roger, not Glenn.

    I, for one, will truly miss the Glenn Beck Comedy Hour. It was the benchmark of just how crazy being conservative could drive someone, even a mild mannered Pillsbury® Doughboy like Glenn.

    No longer will I be able to tune in for the first 5 minutes and see a whole parade of extra strength crazy, as presented by the All Powerful Chief Wingnut, Gleen Beck.

    Now he will be in a place where I can’t hear him, because I quit listening to AM radio in 1972. But maybe he will be on Sirius/XM and I can get a dose of crazy there.

    Is there going to be a Memorial Service here on Mediate? I’d like to not attend.

    Did you read the statement? Fox is still employing Beck. In fact, it’ll be fun to watch you libs get all crazy when the final plan is set in place. I see this as a bold move by Fox and Beck – a partnership of sorts. His Blaze website is beyond phenomenal. I don’t watch Beck so I don’t have a stalking horse. But I find it absolutely hilarious when libs get in a tizzy over a strategic move that appears to be a strong and positive move.

Do you not get that a top Fox executive will be partnering with Beck and it looks like Beck will work with Fox’s digital team? I don’t see how this is a negative. Fox programming always has high ratings. In light of 2012 coming, I would think this is a strategic move. It’s not my fault that you’re blind as a bat.

    Well, I would think that since Glenn Beck has been building his own Huff Po. website and has hired top notch conservative talent, that Fox could buy out or “lease” (not sure how this works in media terms) parts of his site. And apparently Beck already has produced successful documentaries. I am waiting for everything to flesh out, but I don’t see the negative with all of the strategy hires that Beck has recently made with his online content.

    Well, one thing has become perfectly clear to me now. I have always wondered how the liberals can think like they do, i.e., why they think unions are doing them any good, how George Soros and his money is any good for them in any way, how they don’t see that socialists, communists, and the before mentioned unions and Soros are using them to achieve their goals of more power and control.

    And then voila! It came to me. It’s because they don’t pay attention, they don’t look at anything more than the “headlines”, don’t look past the surface of anything. The comments on this article prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

    Not ONE thing the liberals have said on this thread as to why or even what is actually transpiring is supported in this article. But, it doesn’t stop them at all from continuing to repeat it over and over.

    That’s why towards the end of the comments on article like this, all that are here are the libs spouting their BS. The non-liberals give up trying to have any kind of reasonable discussion and move on.

He is right up there with Rush and Hannity in liberal hatred arousing. I follow a liberal radio blog (blatherwatch) in Seattle and Beck just gets those people to pee their pants on a whim.
    He couldn’t irritate them any more if he spent the whole hour just running his nails over the chock boards.
    Facts cause them to feel pain.

    I’m not here to gloat but I’d like to express my sympathies to those who feel that the obvious demotion of Glenn Beck in the American media sphere is a great loss. You sincerely and passionately think he was a force for good. I’ve watched many of his clips on various websites and occasionally tried to watch his cable program, and was never able to understand the attraction. I had the same feeling watching Bush II throughout his career. I found both of them boring uninfomed and completely disingenuous. Bush was and is an ignorant person who obviously had psychological development problems compounded by overuse of hard drugs. Beck is somewhat similar but much more charasmatic. It doesn’t say much about the judgment of those taken in by these less than ideal characters. Beck is no historian and certainly not factually accurate at least half the time. And his doomsday stuff is Hollywood at its worst. He’s also a very spiritually confused person definely not living out the precepts of Jesus Christ. My sympathies, but you should look into yourselves for being taken in by this charlatan. For the rest of us – we’re simply amazed and appreciative of God that one of the most poisonous public voices has been diminished.

    I’ll answer that: Nazism and liberalism have nothing to do with each other.

Now, how exactly do you qualify your blanketed nazi statement?

    Why is the left celebrating?
    Beck was moved from being the face in front of the camera to being the producer behind the camera.
    For those who don’t know the producer is the guy in charge.( To the left that means Becks power increased dramatically)

    On to real news, President Bush 2.0 (Obama) unconstitutional war in Libya is quickly proving to be a total failure. Even with the help from the mighty U.N. ( Mostly made up by America) Gaddafi’s forces are crushing the rebel forces.
    Meaning that not only did Obama start a unconstitutional war (proving himself a hypocrite, when he was running for POTUS he said he would never start a war without congressional consent http://www.presstv.ir/usdetail/172863.html) and wasted millions of dollars but Obama probably put the American people in danger. Why?, Because we attacked Gaddafi’s country and he a known financier of terrorism will want revenge for us trying to help rebels overthrow his government.

    But no, lets talk about beck because it’s a good escape from reality. (And Darwin knows “liberals” hate reality judging from this comment section)

    Yes. That’s why they are still going to be working with him:

    Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties. Glenn intends to transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year.
    Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News said, “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards. I look forward to continuing to work with him.”

Glenn Beck said: “I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and Fox News. I cannot repay Roger for the lessons I’ve learned and will continue to learn from him and I look forward to starting this new phase of our partnership.”

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.”

    LOL. Yeah, sure. That’s why he’s hired Joel Cheatwood and he’s been doing nothing but expanding his media empire. Do you really think Roger Ailes would let Soros and Obama off so easy?

    They want to win the next election and even Ailes knows they can’t do that without broadening the base. That’s why O’Reilly has been sounding more reasonable these days and Hannity will follow. Frothing up the base may be good for FOX business but it won’t win elections.

    Fox fired him.

    You fascinate me. I would love to know your backstory. Do you work? If so, what do you do?

    I’m just trying to get your picture here, not violate your privacy. I’m cool with all of us hiding ourselves here.

    I’m just a boring guy in my 40s. Kids. Wife. Avergae job. Average income. I run. I come home. Kind of interested in politics. But fascinated with this tribalism that drives all thought discussions.

    So you really think that everyone to left of you thinks like a hive, and we all move together.

    For the record, I don’t think the people to the right of me think that way. But there is a unique sect that roots for the media people on the right like they have a stake in the game. Like somehow the high ratings of Fox justify your existence. It just fascinates me.

    I like listening to people with whom I agree. That is human nature. But I also like people with whom I disagree. I can appreciate Hannity. Bill O. Even Limbaugh. Whomever. I sometime like listening to lefties too. But, at no point does their success or lack thereof make me feel better or worse.

    I do not like Beck because he is a grfiter. He is always just doing a very bad impression. From his stupid fake crying, to his dreadful muppet voices, to the chalkboard.

    And it does not matter how it is spun. Fox and he broke up. This was Beck and Fox’s management having a break. Beck figured he could sell his wares elsewhere and Fox decided he was getting in the way of their main goal of making money.

    But his success or failure in no way affects whether you are right in your ideas or not.

    Again, you just fascinate me.

    “Thirty-nine percent of Hispanics said abortion should be mostly legal, compared with 51 percent of the general population in a 2009 AP-GfK poll. But there are big disagreements among Latinos. Forty-nine percent of those who speak mainly English said abortion should be legal in most cases, about the same as the proportion of the general US population holding a similar view. ”

    Except young Latinos are not socially conservative. Let’s face it, the right has burned all their bridges with all the racist, homophobic, xenophobic talk. Also attempting to defund Planned Parenthood, bad, if you want ANY young vote. Planned Parenthood is primary care for a huge segment of the young and Latino community.

    But the social issues won’t be steering this election. A fight for working America will. Latinos know who has their backs. Read the articles I posted. Young Latinos are increasingly non-religious. Guns, God and gays ain’t gonna fly with them.

    Really Ellen, Planned Parenthood is “primary care” for a huge segment of the young latino community? So people go there with coughs and colds, a broken leg, diabetes stuff like that??? Please go into more detail. What services falling within the category of Primary Care are they providing? They don’t provide mammograms. I doubt they provide chronic oncology, diabetes or cardiovascular care either.

    Oh wait, you’re talking about “reproductive” health care rights. The right to kill babies. I get it now.
    You’re right. Let’s keep providing funds for women and men who want to be able to have sex without the
    slightest hint of responsibility for their actions.

    Why do liberals always talk in code? If you want an abortion (baby killing) clinic to stay open, JUST SAY IT!!!
    Don’t refer to Planned Parenthoods “other services’ or reproductive health care rights.

    Why do they call it Planned Parenthood” anyway when it’s actually Planned Non-Parenthood?

    BTW, if poor blacks, latinos and whites looked into Margaret Sanger’s (founder of Planned Parenthood) background, they would realize she is nothing more than a eugenics champion who want to eliminate the less desirable elements of society. Translation, she was a racist, elitist, liberal.

    So, there is the story as written by Colby Hall, and there are the facts. What’s new?

    Colby exudes the following:

    “Well it appears that all of the posturing and rhetoric in the past few weeks regarding the contemptuous relationship between Glenn Beck and Fox News has lead to something after all.” And references NOT a statement from Mr. Beck, or Fox News, but a speculative hatchet job from the New York Slimes.

    Then, there is the statement taken from a JOINT press conference between Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, wherein we read their relationship is ANYTHING but “contemptuous.” (It sounded more like a meeting of the Mutual Admiration Society, but we would never know that if all we had to go on was the New York Slimes and the liberal hack Colby Hall!)

    I have taken the liberty of copying referenced comments for the convenience of the reader of this post.

    FOX NEWS AND MERCURY RADIO ARTS ANNOUNCE NEW AGREEMENT
    (New York, NY) Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties. Glenn intends to transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year.

    Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News said, “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards. I look forward to continuing to work with him. ”

Glenn Beck said: “I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and Fox News. I cannot repay Roger for the lessons I’ve learned and will continue to learn from him and I look forward to starting this new phase of our partnership.”

    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.

    Now we have something to work with to help us analyze the story as based on FACTS!

    FACT: Glenn Beck begins work each morning at 6:00 AM, and ends his regular duties when he signs off at 6:00 PM. (Unless, of course, he hangs around to appear on Bill O’Reilly’s program.) Then, he goes home to spend some time with his family and to do some more work–reading and research. (Having owned several businesses in my professional life, I know that 60-hour weeks are not uncommon, but after a few years, such a pace would take its toll on even Superman.)

    FACT: Mr. Beck has hired Mr. Cheatwood to do what? TO WORK ON THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN (implying TWO parties) GLENN BECK AND ROGER AILES! (Is this getting through to you Colby? Can you not understand that you have been caught flagrante dilecti in the middle of your amateurish attempt at a hit piece on Fox and Mr. Beck?)

    FACT: Mr. Ailes noted that Mr. Beck’s program has CONSISTENTLY enjoyed the third-highest ratings in all of cable news. Since the other two highest ratings in all of cable news are ALSO on Fox, does it make anything resembling sense that Mr. Ailes might not want Mr. Beck to hang around? It might make sense to the New York Slimes, and it might make sense to a libtard like you Colby, but it makes NO sense to anyone with an ounce of rationale.

    There are MANY more facts that you have conveniently overlooked Colby, but I’ll trust the readers of this post–IF it is allowed to remain on this site–to ferret those out on their own.

    SPECULATION:

    If I had a young family–as does Mr. Beck–and if I had all the money I would ever need in life, and if I took a horrible time slot and made it a total success (along with the best selling books, the third most listened to radio program in the history of radio, various wildly successful charitable endeavors, and what may well have been the largest and most peaceful rally in the history of Washington DC), I might want to see what else there is “out there” that I can make a success at doing, that would ALSO allow me to spend a little more time with my family.

    There is also the possiblity that Mr. Beck is losing his eyesight (but NOT his VISION), and that could well be a concern for his future endeavors. Mr. Beck has not mentioned this, and I pray that his problems with his eyesight have been mitigated, but it’s STILL an unknown factor worthy of consideration.

    SUMMARY:

    I don’t pretend to know what might be Mr. Beck’s plans for his future, but I am reasonably confident that whatever it is he may wish to do will be done with INTEGRITY and HONESTY, and it will be INFORMATIVE, TRUTHFUL, INTERESTING and it will be a SUCCESS.

    So Colby, and all you other liberal hacks and hatchet people, you have not defeated Glenn Beck and you had NO influence on his joint arrangement with Fox News. If you wish to think you did, enjoy your delusion.

So Colby, and all you other liberal hacks and hatchet people, you have not defeated Glenn Beck and you had NO influence on his joint arrangement with Fox News. If you wish to think you did, enjoy your delusion.

    Excellent post Humphry! Cant decide what part I like most, the speculation or the summary.

    Thank you Steve. Kind words about my observations mean a lot to me–especially coming from you. Frankly, I’m surprised Mediaite didn’t scrub my remarks; they have done so in the past when I was politely criticall of one of their writers.

    Never fear, Glenbeckistanistas, your hero will be more than happy to scam you out of some more of your disposable income with his soon to be announced lunatic fringe speakers tour. He’s joining that other scam artist and grifter extraordinaire,the half-wit, half-governor. Wink wink.

    Your welcome. And I love how some angry lib came by just to give your harmless response to mine a thumbs down, lol. These guys kill me.

    So why did Beck get the boot off his time slot? It clearly was NOT his choice:

    One thing that is pretty consistent with the sycophants who rationalize even flat-out bad news for Mr. Beck: they are all pretty deluded. This is especially true of the reactionary coward X-3.

    Conservative dissent against Mr. Beck was building up because he was, as Peter Wehner, advisor to Rove, put it, “bad for the conservative movement.” Beck was to the conservative movement as cheese is to the bowel movement: not healthy.

    Oh hell, that rich! If Beck has integrity or honesty, it would be a first. Someone who is as hypocritical as Glenn Beck hasn’t even a passing relationship with integrity, and don’t get me started about the lies that Beck tells. AGAIN, the key word to describe anyone who supports Beck is delusion. Beck is a propagandist, plain and simple. He’s very good at it which is why the gullible and ignorant tea party types haven’t caught on to the genius of Beck’s propaganda.

    I need to stress that someone who was not deluded in any way about Beck’s yellow propaganda is Shepard Smith. From 2009 was this:

    SMITH: Do you even understand this Glenn Beck Friday? Because I really don’t.

    WALLACE: Well, I do, and what pains me — and you know, Shep, how highly I respect you — is you seem upset by Glenn Beck Friday.

    SMITH: Upset?!

    WALLACE: I mean, Glenn is a meteor here at Fox News–

    SMITH: He is the greatest star of all time!

    WALLACE: And you should be happy for his success–

    SMITH: I am here to worship him.

    WALLACE: –and you seem to be begrudging — you’re begrudging him his success.

    “We are here to celebrate, worship, and adore,” Smith told Wallace.

    You got to love Shepard Smith for mocking Beck back in 2009. Wallace has not credibility, and the extent to which Beck was embarrassing the straight news folks at Fox was a factor in his being dumped there.
