Its no secret that Beck's ratings have dropped off in the last year.

While his fans still love him, for some folks his shtick has gotten old. For others, he's just worn out his welcome.

Agree with much of what Beck says, but his histrionics have gotten old.

I stopped watching about a year ago, along with family members I have talked to who feel the same way. He peaked around the ACORN scandal.

Totally untrue. Beck went from 3.2 to 2.3, O'Reilly went from 4.2 to 3.2. EVERYONE has been dropping since the election, as is normal.

Fox is in business for one reason only. Reach as many eyes in a specific target demographic to acquaint viewers with products and services offered by advertisers. Anything that furthers that mission is embraced. If it fails to achieve that aim, it's abandoned.

"We're not in the business of providing news and information. We're not in the business of providing well-researched music. We're simply in the business of selling our customers products."

That brutally honest statement from Lowry Mays founder of Clear Channel Communications (which owns Premiere, the syndicator of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity) aptly summarizes the purpose of broadcasting and cablecasting in a consumer-driven, free market system. It's been that way since the first commercial aired on radio in the 1920's.

"Its no secret that Beck's ratings have dropped off in the last year." His rating are still nearly 3 times that of his nearest competitor.
