Glenn Beck (http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Glenn+Beck) may be one of the hottest talk show hosts in the country, but he apparently left New York (http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/New+York)'s WOR cold.

WOR (710 AM), one of the city's two biggest talk radio stations, said this morning it is dropping Beck's syndicated show as of Jan. 17 and replacing him with a familiar New York name: Mike Gallagher (http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Mike+Gallagher).

"The reason is ratings," said WOR program director Scott Lakefield (http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Scott+Lakefield). "Somewhat to our surprise, the show wasn't getting what we wanted."

Beck, whose style is sometimes off-center and who hosted a well-publicized national rally in D.C. last year, has been seen as one of the rising conservative radio and TV talk stars.

Beck's apocalyptic message wears thin.

Somehow he will survive the trials and tribulations.

Poor guy :bang:

Summer re-runs already?
Sad how the left has already run out of ammo so early into the hundred year reign.

Looks like he just saw Obama in shorts!

doesn't surprise me. in conservative talk radio you have Limbaugh and Savage, then its a long way back to the rest of them who're fighting for the scraps.

I've tried to listen to Gallagher a few times. awful

[BlueShoe]

Yawn.:sleeping: NYC is far left lib loon land. No surprise that a conservative would not do well there. Now then, where did all the lefty talk shows go? Down the drain, thats where. Air America was a huge success, right? :D

[Tom]

Air America was the predecessor of the birds that fell out of the sky this week! :D

[bigmack]

Pathetic how stinky & hcap actually think anyone gives a rats ass about such things.

Meanwhile, in actual news; Pelosi coughs up the gavel.

[Tom]

Maybe those poor birds got a peak at her mug while she was flying back to DC over the weekend! :D

If Limbaugh or Hannity were discontinued by WABC here in NYC for any reason the ditto heads and Hannitizers would be throwing conniptions. But, that aint happening as their ad revenue is pulling in good numbers and their loyal followers in most part have tunnel vision. Mark Levin also on WABC radio in NYC presents a different perspective and is an entertaining and popular conservative author, lawyer and political spokesmen. Levin rubs a lot of people the wrong way but IMO he is typical NYC ranter but I believe he is from Phil. PA. Levin known as "The Great One" is very popular here in NYC.

That moniker has been filled.

the thing that i like about beck is that he understands that liberals and conservetives are both going to be the downfall of this great country. when you look at the latest fiasco we had with out banking system, he understood what is going on here to a T. the bankers have learned how to privatize their profits and socialize their losses. first they rob us with their loans and fees, then they distribute the money that they stole from us to their friends, and then they come back to us and tell us they need bailouts. if you don't bail them out the world will be in a terrible depression, they scare you to death and they mean business. this takes place in every country all over the world.

You are right, Mack.

By the way, has anybody posted those weekly MSNBC/FOX rating comparisons lately?

I forgot who's leading? :lol: :lol:

[boxcar]

And replaced by a really, really deep thinker. :rolleyes:

He is a deep thinker compared to the depth of any mud puddle-deep liberal. Most things are relative, after all.

Boxcar
P.S. You're hardly the one to criticize the depth of anyone's thinking. To insure any modicum of credibility to any of your criticisms, you'd have to you craft your first valid analogy.

P.P.S. Don't worry, I'm not holding my breath for that monumental event. :lol: :lol:

I think of Gleason every time i hear someone refer to Levin that way. Nobody will replace GIGOT in my mind
