Why?
Bill| 4.6.11 @ 1:17PM
Good, hopefully they will move Red Eye up an hour or two.
Oldefarte| 4.6.11 @ 2:23PM
I had read that he was possibly contemplating starting his own TV network, Oprah style, but guess not. His TV shows are extremely education, as he is one of very very few that has the courage and capacity to TELL THE TRUTH. I'm looking forward to reading his new book BROKE ASAP also. Whatever he dicides to do next, I just hope that he continues his formatted style of instruction type presentation, since to me and many others, is highly entertaining and informative!!!!!
jharp| 4.6.11 @ 2:24PM
It had nothing to do with him losing half of his audience and running out of ideas of lunacy.
Seriously, his brand of crazy only lasts so long before even the dumbest teabagger sees it.
jharp| 4.6.11 @ 2:27PM
"His TV shows are extremely education, as he is one of very very few that has the courage and capacity to TELL THE TRUTH."
God you people are stupid.
Yeah, really educational. Buy gold from me at widely inflated prices because Obama is the anti Christ. And the teabaggers buy it.
You people are the dumbest human beings on the earth.
LarryK| 4.6.11 @ 2:40PM
jharp,
I bet you "drive really slow in the ultra fast lane"...
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 2:44PM
There's nothing illegal about buying or selling gold, moron, and I notice you offer nothing to refute Beck's assertions. Weak.
Glenn doesn't think the Bamster's the antiChrist, but you bonehead Leftists believe he's the Messiah. Talk about stupid.
Michael L. Hauschild| 4.6.11 @ 3:05PM
Glenn Beck’s problem was that his audience was smarter than he was. While he had the premise, he had the fire, and he also had the work ethic, he also had some insurmountable baggage (no I am not speaking of denomination). Those of his audience that stayed were mirrors; the terms “fringe and extreme” fit and the remaining audience wore the shoe. He was inspiring at times and he will always be remembered for his contributions, but we need Pauls, and Sarahs, and Micheles.
I wish him the best, and thank him for his best; but life must be balanced, his worst got to be too heavy a load.
Pastor Jones| 4.6.11 @ 3:12PM
Beck is the guy from high school that everybody threw up against the lockers and shook down. Now he's getting revenge on the world.
jharp| 4.6.11 @ 3:33PM
LarryK,
I drive really slow but always keep to the right. I haven't been so much as been pulled over in over 12 years.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 3:33PM
Beck doesn't need Fox to be successful; his Web operations earn him $4 million dollars a year--twice the amount Fox pays him. He's also an extremely successful author, radio host and he plays to sell-out audiences all over the country.
He still dominates his time-slot at Fox, too.
There are also rumblings of Beck starting his own cable channel ala Oprah--leaving Fox would give him more flexibility to pursue his own projects.
Glenn Beck's not going away.

No one, including myself made any such claim dumbass.
As a matter of fact I think you should buy lot's of Glenn Becks gold. If you are stupid enough to take Beck seriously then you are easily stupid enough to buy his gold at vastly inflated prices.
Go for it. Please. Glenn Beck wants and needs more of you dumbassses money.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 3:37PM
Sorry for the double post.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 3:38PM
You hate Beck because you can't refute him, nitwit.

People on the left hate him because he says the truth -- and of course, we are all idiots who like him. He continually says to everyone, "Don't take my word for anything. Here is the material, you make up your own mind." JHarp, I will pray for you. You need to find kindness and love -- two things which do not come through in your posts here: "idiots", "dumbest teabaggers", etc. However, your hate and ignorance do shine! Congratulations.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 4:31PM
Harp is a typical Soros drone, another useful idiot for the dark side.

"You hate Beck because you can't refute him, nitwit."
I don't hate anybody. However I do hate what he does.
C'mon. Thou shalt not bear false witness?
His business model is breaking one of the top ten on an hourly basis.
And you dumbasses take him seriously?
God you people are stupid.
tatosian| 4.6.11 @ 5:10PM
Diana West speculates that the Beck-Fox divorce might be an effort to purge the wondrous Fox network of Islamophobes in preparation of Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal's favorite, James Murdoch's ascension to the Fox throne.
Well, that and the millions of advertising dollars Beck lost for the network, maybe.
I think the guy got a lot of folks involved. For that alone he should be commended.

JHarp: Name one lie. One. Go ahead. We are waiting.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 5:54PM
He can't. He hates Beck because he knows Beck tells the truth.
The foul-mouthed troll is suffused with hatred for anyone who disagrees with him. No Liberal "tolerance" there.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 5:59PM
What a joke to say Beck lost Fox millions in advertising revenue--he dominates his time slot right now. Beck earned Fox many millions during his two years there, and he will continue to do specials for Fox in the future.

Soory but TAS wouldn't let me post all of the links to Becks lies
He lies on a daily basis you effing dumbass.
He lies what the truth fits better.
God you people are stupid.
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 8:44PM
The Soros clown referencing more Soros' clowns.
You're going to have to do better than that you lying jackass. Worthless Media Matters is morally bankrupt just like you, troll.
jharp| 4.6.11 @ 10:43PM
Jonah| 4.6.11 @ 8:44PM
"You're going to have to do better than that you lying jackass. "
No can do. Video of Beck openly lying on national television is the best I've got.
God you people are stupid.

"You know, Glenn's health is not the best, and daily TV does take it out of you."
No I don't know. Link?
And daily TV takes what out of you? A day's work? I'd say honest days work but it's rather obvious that Beck is as dishonest as they come.
God you people are stupid.
Jonah| 4.7.11 @ 2:59AM
You obviously know nothing about Beck; he's had health issues for the last year. Why don't you try googling it for yourself, dumbass?
Funny that a deceitful, paid hack like you calls Beck dishonest; you're projecting again, troll.
Two? After nearly 2 1/2 years on Fox, you can come up with just TWO examples of Beck's "dishonesty?" Soros funded Media Splatters is a joke and the two examples you cited were bald-faced lies. You've got nothing, dirtbag.
You Leftists are going to regret Beck leaving Fox--he'll have more time to zero in on you anti-American scoundrels. I hope he continues to pursue that evil bastard, Soros, too.

No you stupid ass. I can come up with hundreds.
I was asked for one. I tried to post 4 but TAS wouldn't permit it.
So I posted 2. Twice what you asked for.
God you people are stupid.

Jonah| 4.7.11 @ 12:30PM
You would post FOUR? LOL!
Stop blaming your lack of proof on AmSpec, libtard. Liberals are always whining.
I read your two MM examples and they were both bald-faced lies, moron. Beck's not retreating--he's reloading.
LarryK| 4.7.11 @ 2:14PM
Jonah,
It is best to leave jharp alone. When liberals run out of arguments, the only ammo left in their 2 watt brains is simplistic name calling, hence, "Larryk=dumbass". Oooo that was smart.
He is so dim he missed me calling him an @ * * h o l e in a poetic fashion using Dennis Leary's famous song "Jharp's an @ * * h o l e"
