Beck Dropped
 
Fox so called news will be dropping Glen Beck. Maybe he should have kept his mouth shut about Trump.

Been watching Fox on teevee? I don't watch teevee but on their web site they report ACORN indicted voter fraud in Vegas.

Glenn Beck had run some stories on the criminal enterprise ACORN which champions left wing causes.

FOX News and Glenn Beck announced Wednesday that they will team to produce a slate of projects for FOX News Channel and FOX News' digital properties.

Beck will "transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year" to pursue the new opportunities, FOX News said in a press release announcing the agreement.

“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," Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of FOX News, said in the release.

Joel Cheatwood, SVP/Development at FOX News, will be joining Beck's production company, Mercury Radio Arts.

“I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and FOX News," Beck said in the release. "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."

NEW YORK— 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 (FNC) 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."


Did you get the scoop from Daily Koss or one of the Soros blogs?

Beck’s much-reported troubles with the advertising community are believed to play a role in the decision.

As Beck’s ratings have declined over the last year, the economics became even dicier. He may have the number three show in cable news, but without strong advertiser support, it is hard to be sustainable long term.

The deal also includes a production and development deal, which will have Beck and FNC “work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the FOX News Channel (FNC) as well as content for other platforms including FOX News’ digital properties.”

“Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards,” said FNC CEO Roger Ailes in a statement. ” I look forward to continuing to work with him.”
Appears his show is ending in 2011, though he will continue to work with FNC. He still has his talk radio show, books and website revenue.

Out of all the shows on FNC, I think O'Reilly is the most annoying, with Hannity a close second. Beck's tends to be über emotional, and sometimes even a little dramatic. I mostly like the news desks more than the shows on there anymore. The less popular Shepard Smith and Neil Cavuto are more enjoyable to hear.

I used to enjoy Pat Buchanan's show on MSNBC.

Sorry to see Beck go. If half of what he said was true, and I believe much more than a half was factual, America is in a "heap of trouble!"

Now here's my thoughts on why he's leaving. Some of the news reports stated that his show was third.... third! That's right, third. Now why would Fox consider dropping a show that's third? Well, I think the reason was because he included God, and righteous living so often that the advertisers were reluctant to advertise with him for this reason. You can be assured that companies that don't want to say, "Merry CHRISTmas" sure don't want someone mentioning God when they are advertising with them. Just my thoughts!

I always hear how he doesn't tell the truth, makes things up, etc.. However, I've never seen anyone prove him wrong, have you?

Sandie, you're right. I've never heard anyone prove him wrong, with proof. I stated it like I did to keep the liberals from going ballistic. I really believe he was truthful in everything he did and said.

I don't think we've heard the last of him. This could be a stepping stone for greater things.

I hope we haven't heard the last. He has been very educational. I had no idea the level of ruin Woodrow Wilson brought on until Glen Beck did so much teaching on his presidency. What an eye opener.

I think too many people fear his truthfullness.

The accusations of lying have exploded in the recent years. Most of the accusers are the liars. The liar charge is often when some one hears something they don't want to hear. I watch a part of a story on a climate alarmist extremist that is exhiled now in China. Not only had I never heard of him, the report was very hard to research for beck.

I watched, on his TV Show, his explanation of his conversion to Mormonism. It was the first time I saw him cry. Very touching story.

Either way, I'm only ribbing due to the irony.

That's the thing about the right...we're enclusive, doesn't matter what anyone's own particular brand of faith happens to be. :)

I've prayed for him that God would lead him into all that God has for Glen and his family. Who's to tell what comes of the prayers that have been prayed?

P/S, I also pray that for President Obama and his family.

Glenn Beck's Fox show ending

Published - Apr 06 2011 05:13PM CST

By DAVID BAUDER - AP Television Writer


NEW YORK — Glenn Beck later this year will end his Fox News Channel talk show, which has sunk in the ratings and has suffered from an advertiser boycott.

Fox and Beck's company, Mercury Radio Arts, said Wednesday they will stay in business creating other projects for Fox television and digital, starting with some documentaries Beck is preparing.

Beck was a quick burn on Fox News Channel. Almost immediately after joining the network in January 2009, he doubled the ratings at his afternoon time slot. Fans found his conservative populism entertaining, while Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert described Beck's "crank up the crazy and rip off the knob" moments.

He was popular with tea party activists and drew thousands of people to the National Mall in Washington last August for a "restoring honor" rally.

Yet some of his statements were getting him in trouble, and critics appealed to advertisers to boycott his show last summer after Beck said President Barack Obama had "a deep-seated hatred for white people."

Beck said that he went to Roger Ailes, Fox News chairman and CEO, in January to discuss ways they could continue to work together without the daily show.

"Half of the headlines say he's been canceled," Ailes said. "The other half say he quit. We're pretty happy with both of them."

This doesn't effect you since you are a devoted Rachel Maddow viewer for liberal views. She will explain all this better for you than Fox will.

Beck is conservative and appears to be on till later in the year.

I'd have to review the episode but it was back when the cash for clunkers things was going on. He was making some big hoopla about something to do with cash for clunkers that was totally untrue. Something about if you signed up online for them then you would have to agree to give away all the privacy on your computer... total nonsense and obviously wrong considering unless you were a dealer in cash for clunkers you didn't do anything on the webpage he was talking about. I could go on about this lie for quite some time....

I don't even know where I would find the episode or if any of those cash for clunkers sites are still up or where I could find them archived if they aren't. So unless you are willing to help in this endeavor then just accept that when I did research I was convinced that he was clearly lying. You don't have to accept that he did lie, just accept that I am convinced he did.

I can accept the latter, no problem.

I only ask for the proveable links because he is constantly, severly and always accused of lying on a regular basis. So, I'm interested to find out any proveable lies, not mistakes, but out right lies.

So he has 3 million viewers and Maddow has 850,000?

It is so funny to see the liberals get all excited when the top 6 audience are Fox ahead of MSLSD.

Fox has a good sized Arab owner investor. They keep these guys because they make a Lot of money.

I'll do some research later and see what I can find. I probably wasn't the only one who noticed it. Hopefully I can find the clip so you can see exactly what Beck said. And then I'll give you some of the facts and you can come to your own conclusion about if he was lying or misleading or whatever.

I'm not sure what you think is happening on this video?

He seems to be only pointing out what the actual website says and is making a judgement call on what he thinks is happening. How is any of that a lie?

This is what is in the warning box that pops up when on that website:

Quote:

"This application provides access to the DOT CARS system. When logged on to the CARS system, your computer is considered a federal computer system and it is property of the United States Government. Or — any or all uses of this system and all files on this system may be intercepted, monitored, recorded, copied, audited, inspected, and disclosed to authorized CARS, DOT, law enforcement personnel, as well as authorized officials of other agencies, both domestic and foreign."
I never saw the program, but I'm sure glad I never had a reason to go on that website. I don't want the government considering my computer and all it has on it as now a part of the federal computer system and it's property.
Would you?
