Get Rid of Right Wing Freak Glenn Beck on Headline News (email em)

[orleans]

ARGH! I just watched your Glenn Beck show and I am shocked that you find this person worthy of a show on your station! He is crass, rude, filled with a lot of cheap shots & frat house humor/attitude and Headline News certainly lowers its standards by hiring such a jerk. (Nancy Grace is bad enough--now you're airing this creep?) I had him on long enough to hear him saying to this woman: "You must be a democrat! You're a democrat" like that's a bad thing. Then he called her little Miss France (because she couldn't make up her mind). If you think putting up this right wing pig is a smart move--look at the POLL NUMBERS for republicans in this country. People are getting fed up with the smart ass blow hard republicans in office and in the media. The republican congress poll numbers are in the toilet, so is the poll number for the republican VP, so is the poll numbers for the republican president! If whoever you have in charge of programing thinks your audience wants to see this republican idiot smart-ass then think again! You've lost a ton of credibility by hiring this weirdo. Get rid of him and whoever gave him the show! I'll be turning off Headline News for awhile--at least for as long as you have that fool on your network.

1. excellent letter. when I first heard that that cretin was hired, I called

and told them what I thought of their decision, and that I was now a "former viewer"

4. Here is what I just sent to them...thanks for the link!

I guess that you are trying to get rid of essentially all of your viewers and throw in the towel. Glen Beck? Nancy Grace? Are you completely committed to destroying any remaining brain cells still maintained by the sad Americans that watch the trash that you are now showing? Please...have some mercy! Show them the door! And please get Anderson Cooper away from the Rita Cosby-esque infatuation with polygamy and Waco the sequel!

6. What I sent to CNN HN

This is what I sent to them. I wrote Headline News when they announced that they hired Beck.



What happened to Headlines News? I used to look forward every morning to watching Robin Meade. Now, I get nautious every time she has her little segment with Glenn Beck. I either turn the channel or place it on mute.

I refuse to watch your channel in the evenings now that you have dumped real news for Glenn Beck, Nancy Grace, and the Entertainment Tonight Clone.

How can you hire someone such as Glenn Beck who stated that he was sick of the 9/11 families? Here are some more quotes from Mediamatters.org:

I will be sure to ask my local cable company to include BBC America and CBC - since I now have to go abroad for a decent news source.

7. you're right--i've noticed something going awry with anderson's

show lately--and that's it! he's covering tabloid news!

[marylanddem]

5. I e-mailed & said I wouldn't watch CNN again until he's gone.

[madmusic]

8. No!

Give the public some time to see what these a**holes are like.

[orleans]

9. No! no one should have to be exposed to that! n/t

[Bruden]

10. He's like some weird Dennis Miller wannabe. Very strange.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

13. CNN might as well dump this guy and replace him with..

..Dennis Miller.

At least he had the capability of being funny, although his fascism was on another level.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

11. if you take away the rw politics-which is what got him his job...

he's jsut the failed unfunny morning zoo schmuck that he was 6 years ago. his 'comedy' is a joke. There's nothing worse than a guy who acts like he's funny when he's not.

[orwell]

12. And...

...they would like to thank you for watching and taking the time to e-mail them...

It seems their ploy worked like a charm.

[orleans]

14. yeah, they probably just sit around wondering how they can

get more mail regardless of how bad it is.

[ima_sinnic]

15. my e-mail to CNN

I will NOT be watching CNN again. Whether or not you get rid of Glenn Beck (which you will eventually have to do, the guy has "loser" tattooed on his forehead), I will not be back because the fact that he was hired in the first place indicates that whoever is running CNN has very poor taste, incredibly bad judgment, and no sense of the viewers' intelligence. You must think we are as ignorant as you are. CNN is for uneducated hicks who think, like you do, that the National Enquirer and Star are high-level "journalism."

16. eww, smack, good one.,can I use it?
