Fox News Gives Glenn Beck A Forced Vacation And Tells Him To Take The Week Off

 It seemed inevitable and was only a matter of time before Glenn Beck opened his mouth and was given a time-out by his bosses over at Fox News. At the end of July on a guest appearance on Fox and Friends, Glenn Beck stated that the President of the United States hates white people and is a RACIST! Whether he truly believes what he said or he was trying to be controversial to get people talking, he definitely grabbed everyone's attention. Well, it seems he also grabbed the attention from the shows advertisers, since his comments were made a few weeks ago, there have been roughly 20 advertisers who have pulled their ads from Beck's show. Fox News has stated that no profits have been lost because of this, due to the fact that those ads are still being run on other news programs other than Becks. Again, why Glenn Beck made those comments on national television is still a mystery to me. The only point he proved is that Glenn Beck is one of the biggest idiots on television. And it seems that Fox News has also come to this realization. He's no different than the fool who stated that Bush hated black people during the rescue after hurricane Katrina. What's worse though, is that Glenn Beck tries to portray himself has having credibility as he spews his political views on a daily basis on one of the most watched channels on cable. While the other fool was just a singer who had no clue on what he was talking about. Beck lost whatever credibility he thought he had left and the crap that comes out my dog's ass has more intelligence than he does.

 Unfortunately, the only way to get the message across to Glenn is through money! When News Corp starts losing profits or the threat of lost profits, something must be done... and done quick! If this were to catch on, such as the Imus incident did and people start calling for him to fired, the ground swell could force other advertiser to walk away from Fox News. And with Fox News being the only profitable segment of News Corp, this is highly unacceptable. Why Glenn Beck didn't already realize this is beyond me, it only proves how stupid he is. Has he already forgotten why he was let go from HLN?

 Either Fox News knows that what Glenn Beck said about the President crossed the line and something needed to be done or they just proven that they don't stand behind their news anchors! It could quite possibly be both. The bottom line is that Glenn Beck doesn't need a forced vacation, what he deserves is a permanent vacation! And Fox News proves again what low quality talent they have on their news channel... they're a JOKE!
