I’ve never listened to Beck more than five minutes. He’s not my cup of tea.
The only person I have always enjoyed listening to is Rush Limbaugh. That is someone who stays consistently on message without ranting around looking like a fool.
I’ve listened to him since 2003. That may come to an end now.
Rush doesn’t rant? You can’t be serious. Sarcasm, right?
How easy we forget the two days of Limbaugh's show when he said he will be voting for Bill Clinton, after giving it serious thought. And then he explained the reasons why he thought Clinton was the better candidate.
90% of the callers did not get that the two shows was pure sarcasm, but callers one after the other told him they were not going to listen to him again. And he just let them hang there. It wasn't until the third day when he explained why he did that. If I remember right he was trying to prove that his listeners were not just robots with no mind of their own. But still it was a very very odd week in Limbaugh history.
+1 what you said ... right on the nose.
I test drove Beck for a few minutes at a time, and felt like he was preaching or talking down to me — just didn’t care for him or his style.
Rush I have listened to for as long as he has been on the air, and I am a longtime 24/7 member. Rush’s show is content, content, content, even tho he definitely has a showman’s/entertainer’s delivery, which I have no problem with.
ITA.
I’ve listened to beck roughly five times, all on youtube. I really liked ‘em all, but it is the cream I was watching.
His book is absolutely fantastic though. (Arguing with Idiots)
