Glenn Beck is Boring and Preachy

That's why a chain of radio stations is canceling his ridiculous show.

"He bounces around pretty radically, I think he confuses people, they're not sure where he is coming from," said Rick Buckley, president of Buckley Radio of Greenwich, Conn., who spoke with Media Matters. "It can change day to day, hour to hour. Consistency is, I think, the path to success in broadcasting, in radio for sure, whether it be music or talk. Glenn is sort of all over the park from time to time." [...]

"Some of his direction has changed over the last year and a half," Buckley said. "He is preaching a lot more than entertaining."

The "bouncing around" thing is a sign that he can't sustain his act and people are noticing. He fell into a trap. He's running out of dire predictions -- especially when they aren't really coming true. So the preacher persona emerged because religious-style preaching is more ambiguous and acceptably phony-baloney.
