Where will Americans get their news, now that Glenn Beck will no longer be on the air?

Asked by Ladymia69 (6884points) April 25th, 2011

I heard his show is ending, but his production company and Fox News will be rustling up some tasty new programming! But then, another paragraph read that they really just want to get rid of him.

haha really? maybe cnn or some other objective network? I have never met anybody that watched him or thought he had actual news.

There will be no news. The New World Order will take control of all media, pumping our minds with useless propaganda, and we will all have to have microchips under our skin! Hiddeeeeeee! It’s a sign of the apocalypse.

I am in absolutely NO WAY serious. Don’t label me as a crazy….yet.

Americans will get their news where they always got it: The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
The Nut-Ball Republican Right will have to settle for slightly less monkey-ass crazy than Beck.
Probably Charley Sheen.

BBC? NPR? And of course, Jon Stewart.

‘Where will Americans get their news’ I never listened to Glenn Beck anyway. Sheese! as if you can believe anything the media says.

Glenn Beck was never news.

^^ what he said

Beck provides commentary like Hannity and O’Reilly do. Neil Cavuto, Megan Kelly and Shepard Smith provide the actual news on Fox.

I wish people could figure out the difference.

Jeez, people, I know he was never anything but a soap opera in his own brain, but I was just loosely using the term. I will be hyper-specific next time. This was a sarcastic celebration, anyway.

@ladymia69 I think we’re the only one’s partying. Hehe.

@ladymia69 Sarcastic celebration questions aren’t the norm here. The Fluther gods usually like sincere questions, not slams on people. I’ve gotten to know you a bit and did a double take when I read it, but I wanted to give a sincere answer. =)

I think that the people who actually got their news from Glen Beck will continue his tradition of just making shit up, so they will make their own news. And that may lead to them being satirized on The Daily Show, thus making it to more news outlets than they planned.
