Jeff Bercovici explains on the AOL's Daily Finance site several of the reasons why this boycott against Glenn Beck will be unsuccessful:
"...the idea that Fox News chief Roger Ailes or his boss, Rupert Murdoch, knuckle under and toss Beck is the purest fantasy. "
"Beck has been a ratings hit for Fox from day one, giving the network a big boost over its previous performance in the 5 p.m. timeslot."
"...marketers haven't actually canceled their ad buys; they've merely asked that their spots run during other programming -- and only until this brouhaha quiets down, most likely."
"...On News Corp.'s fiscal-year-end earnings call, CFO David DeVoe announced that the network had just achieved its highest quarterly operating profit ever."
All of these things are true but he left off one thing: You and I. Added to the mix of sound reasons why the Left won't be able to take Glenn off the air is the support of listeners like you and I. Next Monday we're gonna start a petition drive and collect the names of listeners who value free speech and Glenn Beck's commitment to liberty and freedom. Along with continuing to watch his show, we'll send a clear message that Glenn's voice is vital and shouldn't be shut down. Stay tuned.....
I love Glenn Beck. I adore him.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless his beautiful family always.
Anyone that has a problem with Glenn can stick it where the sun don't shine.
