Have media watchdogs counted the hours CNN gives to Glenn Beck in a week?

[blm]

It seems his show is on or being rerun in heavy rotation.

There is no show at all for the left.

More election year programming for the GOP controlled newsmedia.

1. What's his ratings?

I know 100 percent of my household doesn't watch that trash.

[blm]

3. I don't think CNN cares about his ratings, he's a constant ad for the RNC

that they get to keep playing over and over again. They're fulfilling CNN's mission for AOL - protect House of Bush and House of Saud.

[tsuki]

15. Same here. Afraid the dogs would start howling. nt

[nosillies]

2. I can't get basic news anymore because he's always on

It's like trying to find a music video on MTV -- Glenn Beck is the Real World and Pimp My Ride.

[autorank]

4. "Bust the media trusts" should be our motto. Time to right at them.

We need a Teddy Roosevelt, a real bull dog who will capture the vast anti media sentiment
in the public and ram it down the media's throat.

This is just insane. CNN has a man on who said he wants to kill Michael Moore. Not to mention
his general repugnant stance on everything civilized.

I simply can't believee they are that vile. Fuck Time or AOL Time or whatever those losers call
themselves now that they've sunk all of their enterprises in the East River with a load of refuse.

The once proud CNN of Daniel Schorr with Ted Turner at the helm is reduced to a right wing bully
boy who shouts.

"The Hallow Men" Rule the Air Waves, rule the country.

5. It really makes one wonder who's bullying CNN into having this guy on

their program.

Unbelievable that ANY network outside of Fox could have a jerk like this spouting his hateful propaganda on a regular basis.

[blm]

6. It wouldn't be so bad if it were just a regular basis, but he's in HEAVY

ROTATION beyond anything I've ever seen. O'Reilly doesn't get as much airtime on FOX as Beck is getting on CNN's Headline News?

AOL just uses CNN to serve House of Saud and House of Bush.

9. Their ratings have to be PLUMMETING ...

He just is so gawd aweful horrible ... NO ONE who isn't clearly on the right side of the middle could possibly stand the guy ... From the 49 seconds, total, I have managed to watch him flipping channles, he offers NOTHING of substace ... Just mundane, half witted right slanted idiotic ramblings ...

It would be bad enough that he just sucks as a would be "journalist" ... But the guy is so clearly mental ...

I used to want to believe that CNN was a semi-honest broker, that just was spineless ... But, to run this guy as much as they do ... LITERALLY, the inmates running the asylum ... NO business sense in it ...

[blm]

10. Unless the business you're looking to promote is the RW agenda in the

form of a "common-talk" guy who works to make the policies sound acceptable to casual viewers.

CNN is doing the work that House of Saud and House of Bush expects it to do.

[retread]

7. It would mean hiring more staff just to do the counting. Kind of like

counting oxyrush's lies.

[Poiuyt]

8. He's on three times a night. Same as Nancy Grace

Headline News sure knows how to pick them. I remember when that used to be my favorite channel for getting the news. I would have that station turned on just in the background while I was working around the house.

[semillama]

11. Me, too

Get my daily shot of what's happening before work, come in and check it out in detail online. Now it's the Weather Channel or nothing.

[blm]

12. And weekends it seems he's programmed wall-to-wall.

13. Please send story ideas to: primenews@cnn,com

Beck has 3 1hr slots weekdays. His ratings for his time slots are down double digits in all but one demographic during the 9pm show. "Prime News with Erica Hill" (one 6pm EST show on HLN), however, is struggling to find it's footing. Please send your story ideas to: prime [e-mail] (they ask for them frequently). Nothing will happen without your input!

14. Fox has been dominating the cable news ratings for years.

This is CNN's attempt to grab a share of the market.
