"The show really did represent a shameful chapter in American television"
by digby
I was going to write about the demise of Glenn Beck but this says everything that needs to be said:
Beck was the king of the Tea Party and the Powers That Be no longer find him useful. They need to tame their nutballs before 2012. Luckily for them, their nutballs are easily led, so it's probably not as much of a challenge as one might think.
Adieu,Beck: Your influence was great even if short lived. You brainwashed millions and made a fortune doing it. You are an All American success story.
