With this Beck video out there? It's one of my faves.

He's not just on the internet. Don't forget that Clear Channel replaced Stephanie Miller with Glenn Beck for the morning drive slot on KKGN (now KNEW).

In the deeply conservative San Francisco market.

Glen didn't weep. His nihilist cum populist schtick was about as amusing as the Oswald the rabbit T shirt he wore over his street clothes. His response to the charts, facts and figures that Gov. Spitzer provided was to scribble some wacked out graphic hieroglyphs on his palm and hold it up to the camera. Cheesie is an apt description of Glen's performance tonite. No surprise there but it was what I expected. Maybe Romney will try the same tomorrow night...

Since I don't get Current, I wasn't able to watch it. Your description seems to suggest that Beck's tactic was to refuse to take the encounter and the issues seriously. Is that pretty much it?

You should call your cable company and ask. They will probably tell you there's not enough demand. They make more money carrying channels like QVC and WE.

...and that would be a false assumption, of late. Their uptick in viewership and broadening base of advertising sponsors has changed in the last year Was. I was getting sick of those Pizza!Pizza! commercials I do admit.but maybe it's more of a political decision coming from the board of directors rather than the actual popularity.

There's always this way to view their shows without the middleman.

Don't think so, Bob. They seem to just have clips of some shows, no live stream.

They seem to be available through the YouTube link at the bottom of the page? but you're right I don't see live stream. I record 'em on the DVR from TimeWarner so I can FF thru the commercials.

If anyone has cable that doesn't provide it I suggest that you make your wishes known to them. Once they get enough requests they'll start carrying it, I would assume.

Ratings dropped 90%.

Stephanie Miller has a very popular live comedy show that sells out every venue, "The Sexy liberal Comedy Show" Eat your heart out Dennis Miller.
