Yeah, I had to switch channels. It was painful to watch such a lunatic as Limbaugh. He is raving mad. And now Beck seems to have slipped the surley bonds. Before, he seemed so narcistic he'd say anything to get attention. Now he's pathetic. Seems that the idea that their policies were so devastating to the country that we elected their worst nightmare is driving them over the edge.

I watched him a few times on CNN when he was on there. Even then he was a nut.

You are right. I haven't watched more than 3 minutes of his TV show, but I have listened to enough of his radio shows to know that he is a fruit cake and trying to attract listeners, no different than anyone else hoping for a "successful" radio show.
The easy way to tell if a journalist is trying to grow an audience vs relaying valuable information is if they take more than an hour to say what they could type on one page.
This is funny. Olby rips him apart starting at about 1:25. It seems Beck is citing a clause in the constitution that he thinks is referring to a tax that the founders applied to immigrants. He supports this notion, when in reality, the clause made it illegal to ban the importation of slaves until 1809!!

don't be rudeNo comparison. Olby is well informed. Beck is ignorant and stupid. I'm not sure why you think I might be interested in your viewing habits.

Beck and Olby are entertainers. There job is to bring in viewers which in turn brings in advertisers which in turn makes money for the stations which in turn lines the pockets of the entertainers.
Looks to me like Glenn is doing a much better job of entertaining based on the ratings. So, are Greta, Hannity, and O'Reilly. In fact, based on the viewership numbers posted by magarita on the crybabies thread, Beck, pulls in almost as many democrats as Olbermann has in TOTAL audience. O'Reilly pulls in more dems that Olby has in total audience. In total audience, Greta beats him by 2.3 to 1, Hannity 2.5 to 1, Beck 2.7 to 1 and O'Reilly 3.4 to 1. They must be doing something right over there.
Just seems that liberals can't garner any type of audience on TV or Radio. Why is that???
Personally, I rarely watch any of these folks (don't watch much TV at all). But, I do listen to talk radio when driving in the car on the way to and from work and when I am on the road. I can't listen to Rush or Hannity or O'Reilly, never have liked them. But, I do like Mike Medved and Hugh Hewitt when I can pick them up on my travels. My favorite guest on these shows is Mark Stein--there is one smart, witty and conservative guy.
I even listened some to Air America when traveling to spots where they once broadcast. But, once again, airing liberal ideas on talk radio couldn't garner an audience so it failed. Even at a time when the left absolutely hated GW and AA was talking about him night and day. Still couldn't garner an audience.

I couldn't care less what somebody's number are. Choices can be made based on personal preference. The media extends beyond TV, and Radio too.

Because the liberal audience is out getting laid and living life, not sitting on the couch masturbating to the hate and saliva spewing morons.Cable News Ratings for Thursday September 24, 2009 - TV Ratings, Nielsen Ratings, Television Show Ratings | TVbytheNumbers.com
