Huff Post reports that Glenn Beck has lost radio stations in Connecticut and New York.
Buckley Radio, a chain which runs 17 stations around the country, told Radio Ink magazine and Media Matters that it will cease airing Beck’s show, which airs on four of its five stations in the state, beginning April 4.
In an email to Media Matters, Grahame Winters, the chain’s program director for Connecticut, said the move was solely due to the desire to add more local programming to the stations.
“Quite simply, we are making the change in our programming lineup because our listeners have expressed a desire for more locally originated programming featuring issues important to us here at home,” Winters said. “This change will more closely align us with that goal.”
This is at least the second batch of stations to drop Beck in the last few months. New York station WOR pulled his show in January, citing poor ratings. Even so, Beck remains the third-biggest radio talk show host in the country, and, according to a source, 88 stations picked up his show in the past year. He will also continue to air on a Buckley station in California.
have you ever lisened? do u know what he wants to do on april 21st? do a good deed for someone in need a bag of groceries something of that nature. but u want him off the air im sure media matters is telling you he hates america. its your oppion and im not gunna try to change it. but read the constitution freedom of speech is in there somewhere
Yes I have listened.
I have also read Goebbels Diaries, lived through Joe McCarty, listened to Father Coughlin’s speeches, listened to Maoists , and read Lenin of propaganda. Beck is somewhere in that class.
As for freedom of speech, as the right continues to remind us, freedom of speech does not mean that there is a requirement for anyone ot be on commercial broadcast .. whether that is Beck, Sean Penn, some porn queen, or Farrakhan.
Beck’s relationship to American values is like the relationship of Hustler to romantic love.
