Glenn Beck TV

Yes, we're subscribers. When he is good, he's very good, and when he is terrible, he's just awful. Tonight he was awful. Terrible. Alcoholics can't take pain meds, and I think he did--suffering from back problems that took him off the program last week. I sympathize, but maybe the archives would have been better tonight. Eating popcorn while talking about beheadings--doesn't work for me.

I also don't like his whining about CNN and Fox--his former employers. I watched a few of his shows when he was on CNN, and he was just learning how to be on camera instead of being a radio clown, how to speak to a camera, how to interview guests. He was not good--CNN gave him a chance, and when he got better, he switched to Fox. At Fox he developed a huge following, he wrote books, did live theater, and promoted huge events like 9/12 which started a nation wide movement and many book clubs, and he did a huge event in Israel. Now is not the time to cut down former employers. It's unseemly for anyone. He's branching out, doing something different, perhaps it's the media of the future, but he needs to be more grateful to those who helped his career.
