Glenn Beck's Cryptic Message About His Future With Fox News

First Posted: 03/15/11 09:13 AM Updated: 03/15/11 09:22 AM

The Times piece said that Beck's public controversies were becoming an increasing burden on Fox News, and that the station was mulling whether to keep him or not when his contract comes up in December. Beck lambasted the article, and lavished praise on Fox News and its CEO, Roger Ailes:

"Yes, my contract is up at the end of the year. Contracts do that. Fox and I have had a great relationship and the current contract does come to an end in December. My admiration for the people that work at Fox and the people that have built Fox cannot be overstated. In short, Roger Ailes has built not only the most powerful name in news in America but he has built the most powerful name in news on planet Earth. And much to the left’s amazement and chagrin, he’s done it all without bashing America. Isn’t that weird?"

But he also said that he and his fans would "find each other" no matter what happened. He listed a variety of platforms but did not mention television:

"The only thing in life that is constant is change. And so while things, and I don’t know which, will change, all things do, but I know that we’ll continue to find each other whether on the radio, the Internet, on stage, in movie theatres, in the pages of books that the New York elite will never read or on Fox that the New York elite will never watch."

1. Fox Faked News Channel - highlights
__________
From misplacing Egypt on a map, to swapping old footage for new, to mislabeling party affiliation, Fox leads the way!!!

2. Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes ...
but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...

6. Glenn Beck is an example of why zoo-crew DJs should never be given power or more money.
I can wait until Glenn Beck, Bob & Tom, Rick & Bubba, John-Boy & Billy, Darryl & Cooter, and all these other radio dipshits become extinct!

Kind of reminds me of a certain David Cross routine.
