    Beck gets ratings. The people like what he has to say.

    olberman had ratings as well. not as good as fox, but very good.


    also again, regarding rush, there is nothing wrong with using oxycontin. drugs are not evil. we all use one kind or another and they are fine.

    As Bernie Goldberg said: "That's like calling him the tallest midget in the room".

    who said they were bad? all i said was oxy made you mean as hell. To be honest I thought that was the only good thing about Rush.

    Regarding Rush, hypocrisy is what's wrong. He blasted drugs and "liberal druggies" when he was a junkie himself.

    i dont even really feel like talking heads have a responsibility to mean anything they say. it wouldnt mean much to me if rush was a gay democrat and was just performing for money. what he says is either correct or it isnt, i am not concerned about his personal life or character.

    All those personalities are just that: personalities. They're just to give opinions wrapped in a spectacle. Nobody tunes in to someone who's reasonable and level-headed.
