Why is there a news blackout on the Glenn Beck program no longer being available on New York radio?

[kern]

The Glenn Beck program has been removed from WOR-AM in NYC? What is the reason?

[DTCwordfan]

because he has died perhaps.....

[DTCwordfan]

exactly he has died a death with his audience....

Maybe he`s becoming too political. He`s getting very involved with that Tea Party stuff and is all over the news in the States.

[Whickerman]

getting too political? Has he ever been any other way? He's on Fox News every day and is just to the right of Hitler

[Zeuhl]

And he is an evangelical christian nutcase.

Mixing politics with mumbo-jumbo is always dangerous.

Never heard of him, should I have?

[starone]

Don't worry boxtops, I've never heard of him either. I'm just being nosy having a look at this thread.

"Mixing politics with mumbo-jumbo is always dangerous. "
Can you explain the difference to a simple soul like me?

[sandyRoe]

Is the phrase used to describe people like hi,'Shock jock'? Maybe his program wasn't considered shocking enough.

Boxtops and others...

If you've never heard or seen Glenn Beck then here are some of his 'highlights'...

It has always amazed me, regarding British radio, anyone who leans slightly to the Right, soon disappears.

Yet the likes of George Galloway is allowed to spew out his views unhindered, while cutting off callers who don't agree with him.

[sandyRoe]

Jimmy Young had a fair innings. Maybe he's still on air?

[Whickerman]

lol @AOG - I trust you weren't hinting that you think Glenn Back just leans a little to the right?

[Whickerman]

Glen Beck has Nazi Tourettes
