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."

Beck is the only show that I never miss. If I can’t be there to watch it, I tape it.

I hope Beck’s station Mgr refuses to run adds of those companies that boycotted him. Kick those sponsors to the curb, tell them to go to Chris Mathews and Olberman, let them draw their customers.

When Democrats tell me I shouldn’t watch something I know it will be good for me to do the opposite.

His ratings are through the roof because he’s doing an outstanding job of exposing the facists and commies that are populating the zero’s administration.

I wish they would move him a little later. It’s hard to get home and settle in to watch TV by 5. Have him trounce the network “news” at 6 or 7.

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?

What is most interesting is the this is 5p.m. ET only. That’s 4,3, and 2 for the other time zones. So he is competing with the soaps, whose viewership is tanking, and in our market, Oprah. I would love to see his numbers versus these shows in some of the bigger markets.

I first discovered Glenn Beck when he hosted our local afternoon talk radio show, back in 2000. Been a huge fan ever since. People may not like his style, or “get” his show, but he is an honest and sincere guy who does his homework and isn’t afraid to speak the truth. I’m glad to see success is the result of his hard work.

The anti-Beck buzz/whimper is only making his show better, his resolve stronger. He did a phenomenal job this week!

Yes, Fox should replace the BOR replay at 11 with Beck.

Every BOR show is about him doing mirror mirror on the wall. Beck is doing the heavy lifting.

Same here. Most people get off of work at 4:30 - 5 PM.

He’s getting the ratings the networks used to consistently get back when they actually reported news.

would moving Hannity up to 8pm Eastern and putting Glenn on at 9pm suit you? It would me....
