The Huffington Post is reporting that Glenn Beck will be transitioning off of his daily program on Fox News.
Jack Mirkinson of HuffingtonPost.com says, "Beck's production company, Mercury Radio Arts, will instead work with Fox News to produce programs for the channel."
In a joint news release, Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Mr. Beck's production company, said that they will "...work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties."
Mr. Beck, the statement said, would "...transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year."
Now where will our beloved PM go for outdated ideas?

I saw this earlier, and I think a key point is that they say Beck's company will still be "producing media" for Fox. I think one can expect to see a lot of Beck "specials", perhaps as a counter to a daily deluge of wankery that probably tires out even his most ardent viewers. I just have a hard time believing Fox would let him go when he still brings in such a huge audience regardless of his losses.
