Two morons for the price of one

Yippie! great ratings

shut the damn thing off

I missed his show today I think this series of 3 shows he is doing on the TSAR's is a good idea yesterdays show was interesting . Sure he's over the top somtimes but nobody pays for under the top right.

He's an idiot...maybe thats why so many people watch his show,comical value? In any case,i hope people don't take him seriously and think he is fighting on the side of team truth.

Certinly not morons they are both fairly current with events,You don't have to agree with them but they should make you think.
No more or less moronic than any other current event programing.
Make alot of noise get paid...

I do like Beck most of the time, even though he gets bashed around on ATS.
I think he's very instrumental in waking alot of people up to our corrupt gov. down with the 2 party system.
Friday's show is going to be on his idea of what we can do if we're sick of the way this country is going. We'll see I got him Tivo'd.

You really think rupert murdoch would even give him 5 seconds of airtime unless there was an agenda to it? And i very much doubt that agenda has to do with the betterment of the american people.

This thread seems poignantly appropriate...

Funny thing is I had never heard of Glenn Beck until he went to FOX, now I never miss a show!

If the man's was telling me that the world is fine, the economy has turned around and all is well. Then I agree with you.

As far as I'm concerned anybody who says anything negative about Obama and Bush on the same show has got something right.

Oh no... the intelligence quotient of the country must be lower than I thought.

It's just primetime television, basically. It's drama, it's acting, it's scary and comforting.

Everyone should just go back to watching more informative television, like Reality TV.

Glenn Beck is connecting the dots with FACTS. People who dont watch him should. Who are the Czars? Glenn gives you the facts...
Take his questions, his facts, do your own homework..I have, and let me tell you all..you should be scared..VERY scared, what is coming...
Prove that what Glenn has been saying all week with FACTS is wrong, thats when I start listening to you..until then..do your own homework on the people who reside, and work in the White House...

Regarding Beck's popularity............

Fame is vapor, popularity an accident, riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character - Horace Greeley

Popularity is glory's small change. - Victor Hugo

I firmly believe that respect is a lot more important, and a lot greater, than popularity.
- Julius Erving

And my own:
I don't know what makes so many people so ignorant, but whatever it is sure seems to be working.

I suspect he is "testing the water" of decency and will soon become a victim of his own self-centric, conceited over-inflated success.

Big ratings on cable news is like being the tallest guy in Munchkinland.

Maybe Glenn Beck was put on TV to pacify a segment of the populace. The people who didn't like the way the country was running was a large part of Obamas support. Once those people figured out nothing was going to change under Obama they were going to get angry. Beck was put there to pacify these people. Makes it look like someone is watching out for their concerns.

Either that or he truly is worried about the country but like solomon said Murdoch wouldn't allow him there if he was going to reveal the whole truth.

I think Beck will turn into a John Stewart character eventually. Doing a sort of joke based news show.

Agreed.
But he wears too much makeup. Seen this guy for the first time just the other day and I remember hearing him say that the gov was out of control and it was time for a change/revolution..or something to that effect. Anyways he sounded like he was on out side.

Hmmmmm. FOX already tried that. Seems the neocons didn't go for it.

Comedy news for the right-wing? Considering the success of Comedy Central’s political satire shows, it seemed like an interesting idea. Apparently not enough viewers agreed.

I suspect conservatives prefer their bigoted propaganda inciteful rather than insightful.

I guess this thread just turned into (if you like Beck your blind)
Let me tell yunz (I said it) anybody that puts forth information and leaves it up to you to research and find out what you can about the info. to be true or false has got something right.
I listen to Beck, Alex Jones and frequent many websites on these topics and come to my own conclusions. I do have weapons, ammo, metals, food and a semi-plan (still working on)
to hopefully ride out any storm that may or may not come. So please go easy on those who you think have it all wrong, unless you have all the answers and a master scheme.
If you do then please do share

Got to be a poke in the eye to the lilly-livered advertisers that pulled out of his show. When they ask to come back, I would charge them twice the going rate.

That's fine and dandy.

However, Glen Beck has chose to speak on and exploit what MANY OTHER media outlets are doing right now.

They happen to be the unpopular, viral, hard working, alternative types.

Glen Beck has decided to run with we all have seen, heard, watch or listen to on the INTERNET.

But we have also been considered crazy and generally still are by the masses.

Glen Beck becoming popular is just a sign of the times. I pray people branch off from him and discover the many other truths in the liberty and freedom movement.

We shall see.
