It has nothing to do with Ailes. MM went to the advertisers and threaten boycotts, negative on-line campaigns. etc. and the advertisers caved.

Well, Shepard Smith has 2 hours, so that leaves 22 hours....

You don’t know what Media Matters is. Their focus is strictly to shut down media outlets. FOX is stronger than ever and that is there primary focus. Glenn had advertisers and that was not the reason he left. Gay marriage in CA was voted against by the people. New Yorkers were not even given the option. It was forced on them against polling to the contrary.

Point me to one Media Matters success.

RE :"It has nothing to do with Ailes. MM went to the advertisers and threaten boycotts, negative on-line campaigns. etc. and the advertisers caved."

Yes, That started way back in 2009 but Beck still got sponsors they couldnt intimidate, Goldline was an example. My guess is that Ailes thought Beck didnt fit in with the rest of the network (as well as the sponsor problem) , and beck certainly defied the convention. Compare Beck with RINO/Hannity.

There were some of his shows I absolutely loved, but others bored me to death. He would pick single theme and do it for days and days. When he played vids of Democrats and used humor he was at his best.

You are correct. Almost all of the dimocrats and many of the Republicans have been purchased or intimidated into being enemies of the Constitution, the people, and our country.

If they weren’t, they’d put up a fight and NOT put up chosen-to-lose candidates like Dole and McCain nor NWO candidates like the Bushes. And we wouldn’t be in the extremely deep pile of carp in which we find ourselves today.

The only solution is to vote the NWO/RINO/Country Clubbers out of office, one at a time.

Indeed, and I would add, "and carefully vet their replacements' voting history, not their campaign rhetoric."
