My understanding is listeners complained and ratings dropped.

I'm calling SiriusXM. Not sure why he is on patriot 125 anymore. He turned liberal

And he can do whatever he wants, but he doesn't need to be on the conservative channel

I can't blame them. Have you ever tried to listen to Glenn Beck? Zero entertainment, lots of bitterness, lots of self righteousness, lots of moonbattary, not funny and lots of commercials. Just a terrible show.

If they don't have Laura Ingram maybe they should consider replacing Glenn's show with Laura's.

National radio is about being on as many stations as possible. if channels that carry him to big markets drop him, he's ruined

However, the bulk of his audience is in middle America so if he starts to lose local audiences here and there it's going to hurt

he turned liberal

it doesn't matter what he is...he's always been a fricking loon.

he's angling for a spot on one of the liberal networks as the conservative foil who will also bash conservatives which makes me think that he's bleeding listeners on radio

For some reason he thinks Trump is the next world dictator and he hates Bannon. Hate might not be a strong enough word. It's personal for both.

Are you talking about 105.5 here in Bham?

I sure hope they do drop him

I used to listen to fill the time. Since his backing of Cruz he has been unbearable.

99.5 Rush radio in NOLA needs to take that jerk face Beck off too. Put on Laura Ingraham or something.

WJBO has the worst programming except for Rush. Replace the crackpot Beck with Laura Ing. Replace Hannity with Michael Savage.
Would be winning bigly.

Instead of Savage, try Phil Valentine.

Guy's been nuts for years..really lost it around the time Obama was elected.

His chalkboard conspiracies are gold, though. At least Rush understands the audience and has a shtick from which he rarely diverges.

Replace Beck with Chris Plante. He is a former CNN reporter and loves to deal on the media bias. Just got syndicated by Westwood One.
