I'm curious as to what format the show will follow. I usually catch the CNN HN version of his show at 7PM while driving via XM. That'll simply switch to Fox News in the Spring. Wonder if he'll mention it at all tonight...doubtful though - announcing a jump to a competititor when it is still months away sounds a bit classless.Glenn Beck has signed a multi-year agreement to join FOX News, announced Roger Ailes, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FOX News. Beginning next spring, Beck will host FOX News Channel’s (FNC) 5 PM/ET weekday program as well as a weekend show on the network.
Currently, Beck serves as the host of Glenn Beck, a talk show on CNN’s Headline News which has grown more than 200% in viewership in both the 7pm and 9pm timeslots since its 2006 debut. He also hosts a daily radio show The Glenn Beck Program which is syndicated via Premiere Radio Networks to more than 300 stations nationwide as well as XM Satellite Radio, and ranks as the third most listened to radio talk show in America among adults 25-54.
In making the announcement, Ailes said, “As we embark on a new political landscape, Glenn’s thought provoking commentary will complement an already stellar line-up of stars at FOX News”

I uduslly call myself independent however as you can seen I am from Minnesota and yes, I did vote for Ventura.
I was in the young republican in the 60's at the U of Minnesota trying to draft Henry Cabot Lodge for President to run. He was ambassador to Viet Nam at that time - he won are mock election at the U, we sent him a telegram to throw his hat in the ring and he sent one back indicating "no way" What a hoot.
You are the best Glenn.
Keep it up and I also love
Ted Nugent.
