Tim Goodman of the San Francisco Chronicle pointed out, "is just to the right of Attila the Hun."
I didn't know Attilla was a right winger.
"Beck is no dummy, though. He probably could be a good TV news person and reflect the conservative point of view positively. I'm not sure how well that would work for CNN's ratings, and that's all that really counts to TimeWarner."
I don't think he fits in at all. Their liberal audience won't tune in to watch him because of the extreme things he says (to draw attention to himself, naturally) and what conservative fans they have won't go for the obvious attempt to be like FNC.
