Go, Glenn!

“Mr. Beck’s show entered national syndication via Premiere, a unit of Clear Channel, 10 years ago. Now carried by more than 400 stations, the show typically ranks No. 3 among all news-talk radio shows, behind Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, so the contract extension brings a measure of stability to local stations that carry it.

The show is broadcast from 9 a.m. until noon in most markets. Last week, another host in the time period, Neal Boortz, announced that he would retire in January. Herman Cain, the former Republican presidential candidate and businessman, will start hosting a show in Mr. Boortz’s place.”

For conservatives, Glenn Beck is and has long been dead to us:

I absolutely don’t understand the appeal of Glenn Beck but I especially don’t understand why the network values him so highly. I’ve never heard him utter a single original thought that hadn’t been stated by Rush or Levin or even Hannity much earlier. I’ve seen/heard him express utter emotional gaganess over something that he, apparently, just began to understand, but I’ve never discerned a single piece of original insight from him. He’s the very definition of what Levin would call a “back bencher” (except for his salary)

I tell you, I haven’t heard Glenn since he went to GBTV. Not really missing him all that much. Of course where I am I am blessed to have great talk radio during the day.

"five more years. Reports value the contract at $100 million.

OMG! Gasp!That's terrible! Would not surprise me if Madonna got that much in just one night just to flash her nipple . No one would complain about that if it were true.

‘Never really liked him on radio with his yuck-it-up posse. Though I’ll give a listen or two if I come across him.

Rush
Hannity
Beck

out of curiosity, who are the 4th 5th 6th highest paid or most listened to talk radio hosts?

Though GBTV has a much smaller audience than Beck's television show - or his radio show - it is often cited as an example of a new media success story.

Beck has stated that he has more subscribers to his GBTV network than CNN has viewers for its most popular program.

I believe it.

I quit listening to Beck once he endorsed Romney.
