Well, there goes my 5-6 PM TV watching, but I wasn't a 5-day-a-week viewer anyway. A shame, though. I do wonder, though, if his injection of religion got to some of his viewers. -Fr.

Beck's production company, Mercury Radio Arts, will develop and produce television projects for air on Fox News as well as content for other platforms including Fox News' digital properties. “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards," Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News said.

He will serve as the company's liaison with FOX News. Glenn Beck has posted the biggest declines among all cable news programs for the past several months, leading to speculation that Fox News may not renew Beck's contract, which was up at the end of the year. But, even with the ratings drops, Glenn Beck continues to be the third highest rated program on cable news and has averaged more than 2.2 million total viewers and 563,000 viewers 25-54 years old, despite airing outside of primetime. > > > Thom > http://thomwade.wordpress.com/ > http://www.cafepress.com/Thomwade > http://www.in-one-ear.com > _______________________________________ > "I want a song to learn and sing, of a life requited."-Echo & the Bunnymen > > -- > dadl-ot mailing list > http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us > http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
