Brain -> Should Fox dump Glenn Beck? (3/16/2010 9:47:50 PM)

When even Beck's Fox peers are sharing their disgust, says Alex Pareene in Gawker, it's clear that the "complete self-immolation portion of the Glenn Beck fame cycle" has begun. After the "hilarious embarrassment" of Beck's Eric Massa interview and his dissing of churches, I say Beck's gone within 18 months, after a "publicity disaster too large even for Fox News." Should Fox dump Glenn Beck? The never mild Glenn Beck is reportedly splitting the ranks at Fox News. While Chairman Roger Ailes backs the emotive, wildly popular TV-radio host, many of the network's journalists complain that Beck's inflammatory rants and antics are damaging the channel's credibility. Given the steady stream of Beck controversies -- most recently his attack on "social justice" Christians -- would Fox be better off ditching him? http://theweek.com/article/index/200832/Should_Fox_dump_Glenn_Beck
