    “REAL NEWS”?! PFFFTT. If people haven’t realized that Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate besides Jesus himself that can change things around – we’re all doomed. You will not find “real” news here, just the regurgitated jargon that the MSM spits out every day to us – and yes, Glenn is a part of the MSM.

    Take the blue pill, take the red pill – doesn’t matter, just take one and the true owners of this country have their way. Voting for Gingrich or Romney or Santorum is NOT a vote for freedom; it is a vote for the establishment!! Wake up sheeple, Glenn has an agenda.

    Sincerely,

    Former Beckite/ClemV

    Why Does Glen Beck Allow Soft Porn Ads To Make A Cheap Buck! Come On Everyone Dont Let Mr. Honor…Mr. Responsibility Allow These Boobs and Bananas To Be On The Blaze! I guess We are not the party of Family Values Anymore. I am so upset that no one else complains about these ads! Shame on us all!

      @JamesTeaPartyMac

      Do what many of the rest of us do…BLOCK ADS. I had started blocking ads back when theblaze.com allowed the advertisers to post ads resembling actual news stories (complete with the “Read More” link at the bottom – which is a trick of deception and NOT “Truth”), and then when theblaze.com actually started hosting “Advertorials” within their own subdirectories on theblaze.com’s server(s), it further convinced me to block all ads. Thankfully, I haven’t ever experienced the ads which you speak of.

      I am fearful that Glenn is spreading too wide and having to trust too many folks to do the right thing. I never thought he could lose me, but it is happening quickly. Last week’s “debut night” (or “premiere night” – whatever) had me excited and waiting with glee. However, Glenn (in rapid succession) misled me about several things. Furthermore, he was not honest in his review of the new programs. I’m about to tune out entirely, and that makes me sad. The “relationship” he has built over the years with the audience was in large part built on trust…I’m quickly losing that.

      Something isn’t quite matching up between what Glenn has been saying, and what he has been doing. He is decidedly critical of others, but lenient on his own products. A dual standard is emerging and this is contrary to the public face he has shown in the past.

      The ads go hand in hand with what I’ve been saying (and what millions of other Americans already know) which is – Beck isn’t about the truth; he’s about the almighty dollar. If he were truly for truth and freedom then he’d be endorsing Ron Paul…

      Clemv –

      That has to be one of the silliest correlations I’ve ever seen. (”Love Ron Paul or you’re against freedom”) So, let me get this straight…unless someone agrees with you and your stance about Ron Paul, then this person isn’t for freedom?! I don’t like ANY of the folks on the podium (including Paul)…yet you isolate people because they don’t believe as you do?! We’re doomed.

      You DO realize that each time you post (showing this attitude) you only push people away from Paul, right? If you have a problem with Glenn, explain that problem…but just a hint: If your explanation ends with “anyone who doesn’t blindly love and worship Ron Paul is a tyrant” – you’ll be discounted every time.

    Gee, do you think the first question to Ron Paul will be about his foreign policy? Romney’s question will be about his Romneycare. Newt will get asked about the ABC story or his dismissed ethics charges. Saintorum will get a pass. That‘s right isn’t it Pat/Stu? I thought I‘d just throw that last line in since Glenn frequently feels we won’t believe him unless Pat or Stu confirms what he just said. Pat and Stu like their jobs or should I say Pat and Stu want to hold onto their jobs.

    I would like questions that are centered around our rapid expansion of the Police State.

    Seems like nnelG has forgotten about the Bill of Rights lately, and I’m fairly certain I know why.

    nnelG really has it in for Dr. Paul, and since he is the only candidate standing up against the assault on the Bill of Rights, he avoids it like the plague when referencing specific candidates, especially his new pet Santorum, who is full bore for the Patriot Act, the DHS/TSA, and the NDAA.

    Wake up folks, nnelG has taken a dangerous turn lately.

    My thoughts exactly, Mountaingirl. I’m an avid follower of both Glenn and Andrew, but I was rather disappointed that Andrew only made a guest ‘appearance. And news?? I thought this was going to be a news program, not Glenn‘s version of ’The Five’, which I’m amazed is still on the air. I’m just disappointed right now.

    You know…I was really rooting for GBTV, and I was really hoping that “Real News” (Really NOT News?!) would improve. But when I hear Glenn GLOAT over how great the program is, and when theblaze.com keeps showing these terribly weak clips as examples of how GREAT the program is…I’m losing hope that it will be fixed, and that instead, we’re seeing the desired end product.

    I said it last night, and I’ll say it again:
    “Really…episode TWO just wasted 15 minutes of my time on (begin valley girl voice – think of Stu’s Megan McCain voice) “If you could ask, like you know…the candidates a question…any question in the whole world…ya know….like, what would it be?!”(end valley girl voice)

    That’s news?! No…no…that’s “Real News From The Blaze” I’m done for a few weeks. Hopefully things change within the next few weeks…At least “Whirly-cam” was given a slight chill pill.”

    This show needs to go back into the easy bake oven for another hour or so (hmm, maybe it’s those stupid new light bulbs!).

    I’ve been here since the beginning, but after seeing the “New” and improved Liberty Treehouse, BSofA, and now, The Real New From The Blaze, I’m losing my sunny outlook. BSofA should spoof the slogan, “The Truth Lives Here” by using, “The Truth Lies Here” – because “Real News” has very little news, and calling it “Real News” is a bit of a lie.

    Keep up the good work real news. Just like any thing new, you will have growing pains.

    Where’s the News??? I was really excited to hear Glenn was going to start a real news show but if this is it I can go back to searching the web for news…Questions for candidates is Not News so maybe we should call the 7 pm show the Not News Hour…

      I had wrote Glenn a few times about putting together a news segment. I was hoping for straight news for about 1/2 hour. Something to start my day with while eating some breakfast. I get so upset about how crappy the news channels are that I have resorted to watching monster truck racing on the Speed channel, while I eat.

      Typical News Today
      - a ton of commercials
      - ***next*** we’re going to show you a video (next is 45 minutes later)
      - charity events
      - other misc. garbage.
      - cooking segments
      - how so-and-so is doing and promoting a book
      - shooting hoops with Shaq

      I want
      * World events
      * Economics
      * National News
      * War updates
      * NO OPINIONS – Just straight news.

      If Glenn could do that, I think I would keep my subscription.

    Here is a question I am sure will not get asked. To Gingrich,Romney,and Santorum. “Why do you think it is,that Congressman Paul gets more donations from active duty military,then all 3the of you combined?” Especially since all 4the of you(including Glenn Beck)think his foreign policy is so dangerous? Besides,don’t you think our troops know more about our foreign activities,first hand then you all do?

    I watched “Real News” tonight especially to see Andrew Wilkow. He got to speak 2 short times and never got to say what HIS ideal question would be. All 4 of the Blaze’s contributors got to answer and give input. I am disapointed Andrew wasn’t given more time, especially as a “guest” on the show.
