It loads so much ad stuff on my computer, I avoid the site now.

Brietbart is getting as bad. I avoid that site now, too.

I attempt to listen to his radio show every day, I usually turn it off fairly quickly, because as I said, it is not interesting.

Do not tell me what I do and do not do, and do not tell me I am misleading people.

I will tell you what I do, and I will tell you my opinion of what I do and participate in honestly. I am no liar.

I never said that I watch his tv channel, I do not have it.

I haven’t seen that too much from Blaze although Brietbart is terrible for that sole reason. I wish the quality of these right-leaning sites wasn’t compromised by crappy ad-ware. I generally stay away.

Sounds like The Blaze is having some issues. I knew it was back when Glenn said two years ago he ran out of money. Then three shows ended. Now this. I still subscribe mostly to see Dana Loesch and the show hosted by Laurie Dhue.

P.S. I found this post thru Got News Wire...You should check it out. They use FR links among the many sources that they use.

The Blaze is really three different things. The Tv channel also running online for a fee, The radio service that is free and has full archives for several months of every show in podcast and the news site.

Glenn Beck’s website still is up and running as well. As for The Blaze news site I used to have issues with it till I installed ad block plus and so now the site works fine.

Huff Po had a minor redesign that angered users so they left. The commenting on the site changed as well angering users. Some people on the left hated when Ariana bought AOL and some AOL sections merged with Huff Po to be run by Huff Po. I never go there but know all this from reading tech sites.

Do you think Glenn cried and sobbed to get them to stay?

I just don’t agree with anyone here about Glenn Beck. But I am no apologist for Glenn or a cheerleader for him or anybody else. I treat Glenn the same way I do Rush and Hannity. There is use for these guys. But at the same time I disagree with him sometimes.
