Glenn Beck Smashes Ratings Record
NewsMax ^ | 8/28/09

Although Glenn Beck's hit Fox News show doesn't even air during prime time, he is generating huge prime-time-like numbers at 5 p.m.

TVbytheNumbers.com reports that, despite a liberal group's "boycott" of "The Glenn Beck Program," Beck is striking "pure ratings gold."

He is the ONLY one I can see doing true investigative reporting and analysis.

That's why his viewer ship is growing so fast. His show is the only place where people can find honest news these days. Every other show is just wasting our time.

>>”Plus, he is a very brave man.”<<

Indeed, he is! If anyone taped his show on Monday or Tuesday would you please let me know if I am wrong about his suit being a “bit bulky”. Like in wearing a bullet-proof vest bulky. The way he moved appeared stiff and he looked like he gaine 20 pounds over his vacation. My wife noticed it before I did. Maybe we’re wrong, but it was quite apparent to us.

His life has been threatened many times from the leftist Communists prompted by the likes of Pelousy, Frank et al.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed this?

I can just imagine the producers and all the executives watching him, whether or not they agree with him, saying to themselves OMG - this guy is GOOD!

I didn't watch him until lately - he seemed a little over the top to me but he has been phenomenal this week with some really valuable information. He isn't just good TV - he is a patriot.

Thank you very much.

I was going to look for replays of Beck’s week today. You saved me a bunch of time.

Dolly: you may wish to consider adding this (and my CommuFascist description) to your EMailing this week

At the very least they should give him Sheps time slot.

Any serious student of the Bible understands that the Lord often works through people from other faiths to accomplish his purposes. Some examples are Ruth, Rahab, Nebuchadnezzar, Cyrus and the woman at the well. All these and more were lost. Yet the Lord used them mightily, and some even came to believe.

Since you yourself admit that you don’t watch Beck, you wouldn’t understand why I said he is brave. If you feel that you cannot watch him because he does not share your religious views, fair enough. You’re entitled to set you own standards in that regard.

Nonetheless, the man does a great job uncovering little known facts and tying them together in a logical manner. There is no one who comes close to what he does on TV or radio. He is uncovering the unseen forces (at least the mortal forces) who are shaping our world, and who run under the radar of most unsuspecting people. He also has the ability to explain complex political entanglements clearly, in a way most people can understand.

I say he is brave because he is exposing some powerful and evil people, who would like him silenced.

I believe they have Geraldo and Shep to claim they are “fair and balanced.” O’Reilly touts himself as an independent, and before Greta got to like Palin, she was more liberal.

Why again do they care if they’re fair and balanced? No one else is tied to that standard. It’s sort of like a self imposed “fairness doctrine” that only FOX regards.

Not to mention the Magi who came to visit the infant Jesus...

Although the previous four shows were excellent, wife and I were both disappointed with Friday’s show, We thought it was rather anti-climactic from what we were led to believe he would say.

Interesting that Beck is the only one who is giving us the low down on this. Limbaugh and Hannity are not focused on the big picture apparently. My one question is can we stop this insanity politically? The arrogance of these people is simply incredible. If the Congress is so gutless now would sending new unproven members in to the mess solve the problem? Have they put something into the drinking water that is affecting them?

We have arrived at this point in US politics, where career politicians run the show with no concern for the general public, because there has not been term limits on these pols. All of them need to be replaced, republican and democrat alike. The buddy/buddy (good old boy networks) groups in DC need to be dissolved. Ted Kennedy is a classic case in point here. He was a Senator for 47 years which is about 1/5 the time that the Constitution has existed.......

Term limits now for all of Congress!!!!!
