Glenn Beck Leaving Fox News?

im1mjrpain
Recent headlines surrounding Glenn Beck’s health problems could be a face-saving ploy to pave the way for his exit from Fox News, which could be a reason why Beck has become increasingly hardcore in recent weeks, knowing that he is on his way out.

Since Beck has been appointed the de facto leader of the patriot movement by the establishment media while reaching some 50 million people a week, it’s necessary to look at why he’s started to cover real issues in recent months instead of blaming the march of big government collectivism on people like Van Jones and other relative nobodies.
Although Beck undoubtedly has genuine health problems, these could just be a secondary factor to the real reasons why he may be preparing to quit Fox News in the near future.
We challenged Glenn Beck to stop identifying Woodrow Wilson and people from the early decades of the 20th century as the real threat to America and to be fair he responded by talking about modern-day eugenicists such as John Holdren, Eric Pianka and Fred Singer.
We challenged Beck to talk about poison in the water and the entire neo-eugenics movement and he actually started doing so.
So when Beck responds to criticisms we have leveled at him, it’s hard to continue bashing the guy. Quite frankly, Beck is becoming more like Alex Jones on a daily basis, which is why it’s difficult to accept that he will be allowed to continue on Fox News for much longer. We’ve noticed a marked difference in Beck’s tone and the nature of the information he covers in recent weeks.
Beck was undoubtedly molded by Fox News as a pied piper for the patriot movement and a phony leader for the Tea Party, but watching his most recent programs makes you wonder whether he knows his time is short and if he has decided to lay it all out in the knowledge that the date has already been set for his departure from Fox News.

As the Make it Eh blog recently pointed out, Beck may be “getting it a little too well.”
He may have delved so deep into the research he and his staff are doing that he is finding a reality that he cannot ignore. He is no doubt getting his information from sources surrounding Alex Jones – like Alan Watt, David Icke, Mark Dice, and others.
Could Beck be seeing that there is more to this than he initially was led to believe? Is his research leading him where it has led the rest of us – to the realization that it is all too real? When Beck says “I know you get this”, is he telling those of us that might see the new Glenn, that he has been led down a path that he too now realizes is wrong?
While giving credit to Jones may be out, he probably realizes “research” leads to Jones and others, and the bigger truth he cannot bring. He has good reason to go beyond his employer’s wishes. He has said it himself, and if this is indeed where he is going, we all need to give him credit for bravery.
As Robert Ringer points out, Beck has told too much truth about who really runs America to be allowed to continue to enjoy such a massive platform of 50 million viewers and listeners a week.
“I ponder what the Obamaviks will do to try to stop him from destroying their efforts to transform the U.S. into a collectivist paradise,” writes Ringer, speculating that Roger Ailes could be pressured to kick Beck off the air.
Mark Leibovich’s recent lengthy profile of Beck for the New York Times also included several fairly weighty suggestions that Beck is on the verge of leaving Fox News.
Although Beck’s popularity could be allowed to fizzle out should a Republican look like taking the White House in 2012, we believe it’s likelier that he will have left Fox before that time, whether he quits or is pushed.
What do you think? Is Beck still firmly under the control of Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes? Will he merely just become another parrot for Republican talking points after 2012? Or is he genuinely beginning to realize that the elite’s plans for America are far too devastating for him not to stand up against, even at the risk of him losing his $50 million dollar a year contract?

      Seriously? pinched sciatic nerve from too much squirming creating that numbness. If he doesn't grab for a vacation to collect his marbles.. his buffoonery might just kill... I'm no doctor obviously.

    • The post explains how Beck has been digging deep into the real situation behind who holds the real power, who is responsible for what, the conspiracies and all. So people are suspecting that he has found himself enlightened with no way to return to his old ignorant ways. Ignorance is bliss, but no one can truly un-learn such things. I believe that if these people are right about this, then Beck was simply being arrogant about subjects he very little about. Now that he's provoked everyone to start asking questions, Beck has had to at least work on knowing what he was talking about. When Beck was mumbling about his health and asked his followers to pray for him, he stated this wasn't an end, but a period of transition. Let's hope that Beck is seeing the light.. of truth, not dying :P

      How amazing would it be if this corporate propagandist start waving the white flag, surrendering the truth and exposing the scandalous reality to all. Glenn Beck could get all those ignorant followers of his to snap out this disillusionment about a Socialist takeover of the U.S. and realize that its a self-destructive Corporatocracy that has been spreading its control all over the globe. I believe the best way to approach Beck now is with the mindset that if he believes himself to have any integrity in researching the reality of the power structure, then he should be able to identify with Alex Jones and others to some degree, and he needs to inform his followers.

    • "So when Beck responds to criticisms we have leveled at him, it’s hard to continue bashing the guy."

      WTF are Watson and Jones on about here?!?

      For one, Jones and the Infowars team should remember all those times that Beck said that 9/11 truth activists like myself, Ron Paul supporters and other like minded individuals were dangerous individuals. Did Jones and Watson forget about this?

      This is what Watson wrote way back in 2007, when Beck was still with CNN:

      "CNN host Glen Beck viciously attacked the 9/11 truth movement last night on his Headline Prime show, describing the whole movement as "insane" and branding 9/11 activists as "dangerous anarchists".

      And I quote from one Infowars writer, January 20, 2010:

      "The grand master Mockingbird operative Glenn Beck said today on his nationally syndicated radio show that there are 9/11 truth activists in the White House and they threaten the life of Obama. “He has invited 9/11 truthers into the White House and into his administration… he is in danger.”

      Glenn Beck’s assigned task is to characterize the movement as violent and dangerous. On June 10, 2009, he declared 9/11 truthers are in league with al-Qaeda and white supremacists, an assertion so absurd as to be almost laughable. He said 9/11 truth activists consider the late James Von Brunn a hero. Von Brunn allegedly shot to death a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. Beck did not provide any evidence of this."

      I wonder why Jones and the Infowars team have decided to memory-hole that good bit of information.

      Glenn Beck is a Judas Goat and Alex Jones and the Infowars team's recent pre-occupation with Beck is highly suspect.

      I think Alex Jones is just giving him credit for doing better and actually speaking on some real issues. Alex Jones challenged Beck to do certain things like put Judge Napalitano on the show and Beck has done that and also a few other things. Alex Jones has also openly said he can never completely trust Glenn Beck. We'll have to see how this plays out.

      Sorry I'm not buying that; no one in the mainstream media needs to be given credit, especially those who so vigorously defend the official 9/11 fairy tale. Jones is trying to play both sides of the fence here.

      I think it's actually the opposite. He was the one that said the media was fear mongering, he reminded us of the swine flu hoax in 1974, and how more people die from the common cold then the swine flu, he also interviewed doctors who reported how dangerous the actual shot was. All he did was read reports from CNN, time, us news, world report, etc. It never ceases to amaze me how people attack the messenger and not the message.
      Here's a quick video to refresh your memory. Where he clearly states that he feels that the "swine flu is a hoax" Either you forgot, you are shilling, or you just don't know what you are talking about...

      No I remember correct... I'm thinking it wasn't him alone, it was ME too...and a lot of people felt that something was going to happen on the level of a pandemic around last year this time. The WorldHealthOrganization had to relax the meaning of pandemic so it could be used liberally as the term for their purpose they wanted.

      If you can't see the dual message with a guest on like Steve Quayle to promote anxiety that he needs to promote in his shows it is really a mooted point.

      Your saying I'm wrong saying Jones misstated but this only because early on he had himself covered better than I thought, I do confess.

      A clip on another episode you'll hear Jones saying it could be true that putting information in the open public like this might stop and scare away the perps from ever being able to complete their mission and because the virus stayed regional(my opinion) we have no way to know if Alex Jones was justified in his paranoia. Skip to about 1m30sec in this interview a guy describing the non-government organization WHO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUFIH3TI114

      I'm only saying that his ranting about forced vaccinations scared the shit out of me included and many others last year just right around this time. I perhaps presented myself wrongly for saying AJ was "WRONG" but I digress.. he was RIGHT about forced vaccination COULD happen and DID happen for people in the industry of medicine for many government employees but I'm just saying that the pandemic he made a lot of scare out of but I'm sorry that your one video doesn't defend what I'm saying..

      Btw, Steve Quayle is awesome and I am not trying to expose or debunk any of them just saying Jones ran his mouth a little far on that one issue. I'm probly no more confused than yourself. It's really something little.

      It's cool... I see what your saying. I think it was a good thing he ranted and raved so much. For some people he didn't rant and rave enough and they went out and got a worthless shot that who knows how it will affect them later on down the line.

      Everything I've found it only FULLY supports that AJ's wording being very specific and very careful. Could of been I have took something out of context on a comment George Noory made possibly half a year ago and For your persistence, Thank you and Apologies. An excellent point, No 'probs.

    • He has indicated for a long time that he's being muzzled. I take what Beck says for a grain of salt for his own admittance.

    • It's apparent he's afraid and feels that whatever he might have could be fatal or at the very least, debilitating.

      Because he's a human being I pity him, not for his sake, but for mine.

      Because I'm a human being I forgive him the lies, bigotry, paranoia and hate he's spewed for years on behalf of his corporate masters; not for his sake but for mine.

      Because I'm a human being I hope whatever ails him can be cured; not for his sake but for mine.

      Because in the end being angry and hateful harms "me" far more than the person I dislike, and to that end, I wish him the best.

      I can only hope that whatever he is facing transforms him into a better human being. I hope he finally understands that in the end, we must face who we were and measure it against what we believe we should have been.

    • Robert Ringer? Are you kidding me? The guy who wrote 'Winning Through Intimidation"..This guy worships at the Ayn Rand alter...I couldn't believe my eyes when I read that they are quoting him as some sort of authority,,LOL...I digress, of all the "health" issues that Beck may have, I would think the mental ones should be addressed first.

    • I find it hilarious how worked up people get over these tv and radio personalities. They aren't newscasters. They are opportunistic individuals who saw the chance to make a dollar. The more they get the opposing side whipped up into a frenzy the more media attention and money they get.
