It says the advertisers were boycotting the show and viewership was down.

Basically, he might have been getting too close to the truth on certain subjects?



Last I checked, his show was still ahead of any other non fox show.



Good luck Glenn.

Glen might have been the one who made this decision. Yes it's one of foxes most popular show's but thy didn't make much advertising revenue off it and Glen makes most of his money outside with his radio and other programs.



Oh yeah. And he's going blind. No ones mentioned his macular degeneration or whatever it is. Makes it hard to read teleprompters when you're blind.

I worry about Glenn. When you start getting too close to some things in this country, there are a couple of ways the powerful interest groups involved can deal with you. First, they can try to discredit you, second, they can try to buy you off, third, they can threaten you personally, and unfortunately if those don't work, they don't mind moving right on to the fourth way: they can threaten your family. That's where they can get even the best of us to bend. I can't say for sure what caused this flip flop by Glenn because of course I don't know all the details . . . but, man . . . this makes you stop and wonder.

Glenn really never seemed quite the same to me after this.

Too bad, he made for great listening during long, boring out-of-state drives. Kept me awake.

Beck brought millions of viewers even on a down day. I think he's tired of TV. Maybe the end is actually near and he's heading for the bunker...

Pretty sure he's still doing radio.

Maybe Beck could work for the MTN, sort of like Limbaugh's short stint at MNF. He's good with the chalkboards I hear. he could diagram plays and what not

the 'old man' story happened to us as well. We were effectively outrages, motivated and 'enlightened' by Beck for a few months when his show first came on and then once we lost our DVR, we stopped watching him and our lives improves.



You just can't live scared and mad all the time.
