After years of protest, hard work, sponsor boycotts and the like, Glenn Beck’s ratings are no longer as high as an elephant’s eye, and the elephant is a little ashamed at the connection. It’s gotten so bad that even Putnam’s own right-wing media demagogue, Roger Ailes, is happy to see the Beckster make a rapid departure from the scene – but with a caveat.

Where’s Nan? [Second Edition] Since the end of last year all we’ve been hearing from the newly elected Congress is noise about this, about that, about that other thing. But the words they’ve studiously not uttered are, “jobs”, “economic recovery”, “lower taxes” and “smaller government”. Yes, it’s true. And for proof all we need do is look at the bills sponsored (none) or co-sponsored by our new rep, Nan Hayworth. It’s fair to ask Ms Hayworth which of those bills creates jobs, lowers overall tax rates, evens out the inequity between the rich and working classes, makes government smaller and less intrusive or encourages the growth of new industries and fair trade practices? That’s right, not a single one. [...] 
A very lucky 16 year-old from Kent is at the center of a brouhaha over his ongoing consensual sexual relationship with a 23 year old Brewster woman who has been charged with statutory rape. Being 16 he’s not legally capable of consenting to having sex even though his hormones certainly are. The woman should have waited until his 17th birthday when all-on-a-sudden the state determines he is old enough. It’s funny though, had this boy murdered or violently assaulted someone the law would say he was legally old enough to stand trial as an adult. [...] Glenn Beck with GOP Rep.

It’s like the Keystone Kops fighting an invasion of zombies. [...] 
The “other side”? There’s another side? There is, only if we continue with the fallacy that two-years of hate speech is not to blame. But if we can agree that it *is* then we’re obligated to name the names of those who are on the airwaves who speak of violence and encourage hate and intolerance and I can tell you, it’s not coming from “Car Talk”.
