Glenn Beck’s TheBlaze Reportedly on Its Last Legs After Another Brutal Round of Layoffs

Glenn Beck’s media empire is continuing to crumble.

According to a Daily Beast report, jobs are being slashed at TheBlaze and there are signs that Beck’s woes are not over.

In addition to the more than a dozen employees reported fired this week, it appears a buyer who expressed interest in Beck’s media venture has backed out, leaving TheBlaze now down to less than 50 employees and with no clear infusion of cash in the foreseeable future.

The Daily Beast reports:

A potential lifeboat in the form of a proposed sale to the billionaire owners of conservative commentator Ben Shapiro’s website The Daily Wire now appears unlikely. A source familiar with the negotiations told The Daily Beast that talks between the two parties broke down and the sale is now effectively dead.

TheBlaze has gone through a number of rounds of layoffs in recent years, including one that Beck blamed on his own staff.

Beck also got into a highly publicized fight with Tomi Lahren, who made a loud and contentious exit from TheBlaze that involved lawsuits and name-calling.

In addition to the layoffs and Lahren’s exit, there are also signs that Beck, himself, may be making changes to downsize or even move to Los Angeles, where TheBlaze has a smaller office, amid continuing company woes.

“I am putting my home up for sale because I fear this economy as we are headed for trouble and I don’t want to be sitting with a big huge house,” Beck said earlier this week.

Sources also told The Daily Beast he has been giving away some of the possessions from his personal office stash recently, another sign things may not be looking up for the empire that the former Fox Newser built.
