<\/a>
\nGlenn Beck will remain on the radio for five more years.<\/p>\n

Beck renewed his radio deal with Premiere Networks, a unit of Clear Channel, for a reported $100 million dollars over five years. Though Beck’s production company Mercury Radio Arts and Premiere would not comment on the value of the new deal, Beck’s reported new contract is worth twice as much as his last deal. In 2007, his contract was reportedly valued at $50 million over five years.<\/p>\n

Beck’s “The Glenn Beck Program” typically ranks third as the most listened to radio program behind Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. His program airs in more than 400 markets from 9:00 a.m. – noon, a time slot that will see some new voices including former GOP primary candidate, Herman Cain.<\/p>\n

The new deal comes almost one year after Beck left Fox News to start his own Internet-based network, GBTV. Beck announced his departure from Fox News in April 2011, and his plans for GBTV the following month. At the time of the network’s launch in September, the Wall Street Journal reported that Beck nabbed roughly 230,000 subscribers, each paying either $10 or $5 per subscription.<\/p>\n

While Beck left the national stage of Fox News, he remains a powerful figure in media. In May 2012, Beck made the Forbes 100 Most Powerful Celebrities list. He ranked 23 with a reported $80 million in earnings.<\/p>\n

Hmmm lets see 100 million for 5 years…well that comes out too 20 million a year my friends….and for what really ?
\nTo spread division throughout this country,to tell outright lies,to enrage as many people as he possibly can ?
\nNow I’m going to tell you all something and that is if the networks that sponsored Rachael Maddow,or Rush Limbaugh,or
\nKeith Olbermann or Sean Hannity did that I would still be saying WTF.
\nSure the amount that they pay these people is ludicrous
\nbut what is even more disturbing is that they are not exactly for the common good of this country,rather they continuously
\nseek,it seems to fragment this country…Now I could see if they offered 100 million over 5 years to at least someone who was working for the common good…ohhh I don’t know like perhaps the Teacher of the year,or the Fireman of the year,or Nurse of the year.
\nEven the postman,milkman, or Garbageman of the year
\nhey wait a minute…….naw I won’t go there………lol….
\nBut Glenn F’n Beck……common now !!!!!!!!! I mean really….
\nWe have things all backwards in this country and the world when people like Glenn Beck and the like make such outrageous amounts of money for doing nothing short of spreading his hate and malice to anyone that will listen.
\nThank you
\nD.Lemur<\/p>\n
