After 27 months of tears, lies, half-truths, deceit, misrepresentations, chalkboards, rallies, divisiveness, name calling, and complaining about minutia, Glenn Beck will be leaving his show on the Fox News Channel. Wednesday, Beck and FNC agreed to end his program sometime later this year. Our favorite idiot seems to have lost the will to continue his [...]
After being derided and charged with trafficking in wild conspiracy theories, Glenn Beck redoubled his warnings that the uprisings in Egypt could lead to an Islamic caliphate spreading across the Middle East on his radio show Thursday. Beck has come under criticism for his doomsday vision of the potential fallout from the Egyptian revolution. He [...]
In November 2009, Glenn Beck exercised his Nazi Tourette’s and told his radio show listeners to “think like a German Jew in 1934, maybe 1931.” What does that mean to an American in 2009? That means buy yourself some gold. In reality, Glenn Beck may or may not love gold. But one thing’s for certain: [...]
Give this to Bill Maher: he knows how to make a run-of-the-mill Tea Party discussion more interesting. The blunt HBO host–as per usual–didn’t pull his punches when Fareed Zakaria baited him with a few questions on Glenn Beck as the spiritual guide of the movement.

Speaking on his radio show Monday, Beck decried the relative lack of coverage that the news media is giving to the figures he discusses day [...]
Last Friday, while the cable news world watched Rick Sanchez’s career end in a spectacular crash via an undisciplined and unhinged radio interview, Glenn Beck was blaming the evils of slavery on government regulation, then asked if, via increased insurance rates, “are we creating slaves?” Only in the tortured and hyperbolic world of opinion media [...]
Glenn Beck’s “Goldline” sponsor was interrogated by congress, after Anthony Weiner called for an investigation. Glenn Beck is accused of using fear tactics to funnel sales to the sponsor, which he didn’t disclose properly. His failure to disclose Goldline was seen as unethical, and as such caused problems for Fox News. Now, it appears as [...]
The New York Times Magazine has a big profile out on Glenn Beck. Buried deep within the report was this gem (emphasis added): While Beck’s personal ventures and exposure have soared this year, his television ratings have declined sharply — perhaps another factor in the network’s impatience. His show now averages two million viewers, down [...]
(CNN) -Glenn Beck is scoffing at recent attacks from MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann and others after the Fox News host inaccurately told the crowd at his recent Washington, DC rally that he “held” George Washington’s handwritten inaugural address. “I thought it would be a little easier in the speech,” Beck told his radio listeners Thursday as [...]
