now if he presented his facts like Limbaugh does, I would probably watch him...

Well, most people wouldn't. We're talking about radio "audio" vs. television "video" and there's a tremendous difference between presentations on each.

My hero, Rush does three hours of soliloquies, callers and reading from newspapers interspersed with audio clips of the enemy just to break up what could become tedious.

He has his own vocal, linguistic and idiomatic tricks he uses just as Beck uses visuals (chalk talks, clips of the enemy), facial expressions and "tricks" (like the ever-present red phone) to make for an interesting show.

Rush's talk show and Beck's TV show are different, but alike in the fact that each employs devices to catch, intrigue and hold their audiences. Each does a damn good job.

Some people will never like Beck even if he showed a video clip of the Chicago Bears playing the Twelve Apostles....in that case it's better for these perfectly-informed folks to clean the garage during his show.
