Glenn BecKKK bolting CNN for Faux
Brownshirts of a feather......


from ThinkProgress:


Glenn Beck to join Fox News next spring.»

Michael Calderone reports that right-wing talker Glenn Beck is leaving CNN and joining Fox News. “Beginning next spring, Beck will host FOX News Channel’s (FNC) 5 PM/ET weekday program as well as a weekend show on the network,” a Fox News statement says. Fox News’s Roger Ailes remarked, “As we embark on a new political landscape, Glenn’s thought provoking commentary will complement an already stellar line-up of stars at FOX News.” Check out some of Beck’s worst moments here.

3. Atrios nailed it today...
"There are a number of people in my city who like to stand on streetcorners and shout crazy shit to pedestrians walking by. I'm sure many of them would be happy to take the job for much less than what CNN was paying him."

26. LOL
Glen Beck annoys me more than most of the right-wing screamers. And that's saying a lot.

10. Dobbs is getting a national radio show
On a local show, they recently announced the producer was leaving that show to go work on the new Lou Dobbs radio show...

14. Dobbs was OK about 12 years ago when his show was only economics.
Then the CNN people started stroking his ego, now he's a bigoted jerk who appears to have as many mindless sheep as Rush Limbaugh.

8. So he's Twit Hume's replacement?
Hope he takes his fellow Klansman Dobbs with him. Of course CNN will probably hire someone just as bad or worse. Like Sarah Palin..... :puke:

22. That was my first thought
Actually, I think they use a "conveyor-belt" promotion system.

Whenever one leaves, gets fired or spontaneously combusts, they all move up one workstation.

12. I loath Glenn Beck. It's that evil smile he has that never reaches his eyes.
He's pure unadulterated evil

15. FANTASTIC NEWS!
Oh, man I can't stand that puke Glenn Beck. He looks and acts like an aging toddler.
I wonder if my complaint letters and emails to CNN helped? I expressed my feelings about Glenn Beck to CNN at least 3 times.

:7 :party: :woohoo: :7

17. No surprise, i think the Communism/soviet Obama video animation he made.....
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 07:57 PM by Reform
Clearly had CNN scratching their heads
Characters from fox come to CNN as well, such as Tony Snow and John Roberts
Fox is a better fit for him over there, he is a good puppet

19. It's where he belongs. It was to CNN's enduring shame that they ever
found a place for that pig on their channel.

27. I wrote CNN several times
to complain about that creep Glenn Beck. The guy is not only a disgusting Nazi but he acts as if he has a mental problem as well.
