    I can't believe people actually watch this guy.

    YouTube - Glenn Beck blames godlessness for America's problems

    Glen Beck is getting rich, man. He's seen Limbaugh and Coulter milk the looney right-wing fringe element and he's getting in on the feeding frenzy.

    A CODE OF ETHICS​
    The belief that moral values are the province of faith and that no rational, scientific code of ethics is possible, has had disastrous effects in virtually every sphere of human activity. ~Nathaniel Branden

    Common sense and critical thinking can produce a code of ethics equal or superior to that produced by religious indoctrination or blind faith. ~tgsam

    Its amazing how CNN has become a non-factor in the ratings game. I dont think it means that much in the political spectrum except that more conservatives are watching TV and liberals are not. They are losing a ton of advertising money though.

    Whats more amazing is almost a million idiots watch Maddow the Bull Dyke. She beats both Anderson Cooper and Campbell Brown. She almost matches Larry King's viewers. Unbelievable. :huh:

    Probably true. Conservatives are an older demographic and watch more TV news than younger folks who often get their news via internet.

    Also, CNN is still trying to be a politically neutral news network, whereas FOX and MSNBC have become more like opinion shows. With the news today being what it is, creating an "us vs. them" mentality is popular whether it's one political agenda or the other.

    beck is crazy. he seems to be assuming there that people will depend on government instead of god. not me, dude.

    i do think that lots of folks substitute the environment for god and care about it irrationally.

    still, beck is unwatchable. i only watched him once and i was amazed at what a toolbag he was. he is doing a good job with ratings though, so bully for him i guess.

    Beck's like Jim Rome. He has to grow on you. If you are for big government, don't watch Beck, unless you want to learn why you should be for less government.

    oh lord jim rome is terrible. why is he talking like that. some tastes i dont want to acquire.

    and beck, i already know why big government is bad. i dont need some loony mormon yelling at me about it.

    oddly enough, the best talking head on cable news is probably the much maligned former bow-tie wearer, tucker carlson. still dont watch him though. tv is a dead medium. tv is for old people.

    red is right, younger folks dont watch tv news.
