Controversial Fox News firebrand Glenn Beck may be losing some of his appeal. In January, Beck's talk show posted the steepest ratings declines for any cable news program. Glenn Beck averaged 1.8 million viewers, down 39% vs. January 2010. In 25-54, the drop was even bigger, 48%, to 397,000.

This is a very steep decline for Beck, who peaked at 2.8 million viewers in 2009, drawing more viewers than all of his cable news competitors combined. Beck, who has been an icon for conservatives and a lightning rod for his critics, has had a rocky ride on Fox News. His highest point came last August when his Restoring Honor rally drew almost 100,000 in Washington, DC.

Beck has also come under fire for his attacking style and controversial remarks, including his 2009 statement that President Obama was a racist that led to a number of advertisers pulling from his show. As of Sept. 2010, 296 advertisers asked not to be on Glenn Beck, up from 26 in August 2009.

Its beacuse Jon Stewart and other media critics have exposed Glenn Beck for being a hypocryte and a propagandist. also Beck's Restoring Honor have been drowned out by the restoring sanity protests.
