OK, he may not be the CEO... I don't care to investigate any further as to the ownership, but as Founder and Editor-in-Chief I'd think that one would have to consider him "Management". But if he was completely powerless in deciding to partner with Beck, then he has my apologies for thinking he was foolish to do so.
Well, despite what I said above, I did investigate a little further, and found this to be interesting.
If you go to the FAQs on the CRTV website, , and go down to “Who Owns CRTV” and click on the link to CRTV.LLC... It takes you to The Blaze homepage.
Interesting.
