Glenn Beck has denied rumors that he plans to start up his own cable network and said that he no intention of abandoning Fox News.

Earlier this week various prominent media outlets including The New York Times had suggested that the Fox News host planned to set up his own cable network. These rumors were then fuelled by the fact that Beck appeared no committal about the future of Fox News.

Although the controversial host's contract with Fox News expires in December 2011 Beck deinied that he plans to leave Fox.

In a statement issued through his spokes man he said "Roger Ailes has built the most important voice in America today - Fox News - and it is an honor to do my show there every night. I have no intention whatsoever of doing the show I am doing now on Fox anywhere else."

I consider myself a conservative sheepdog who despises Glenn Beck, whom I consider a candidate for a home for the bewildered.

Yes Skibberrean, America was built by our Fathers and Grandfathers, who were in unions so that people like you can debase them. Remember it was unions that made schools available to the masses instead of working in some crap hole as a child just to put food on your table! God Bless American Union Labor!

Why talk so poorly of Beck when he is (THE ONLY ONE) that is defending our REPUBLIC!! What about SEIU and Steven Lerner? Do any of you really see what is going on today in this country? It is not good. You need to get your liberal heads out of your Ostrich holes, out of the New York Times Rag and get back to home, family respectability and GOD! This country was built by our Fathers and Grandfathers backs. Not by the Government. Wake up America, or you will be owned by a Foreign regime.

Glenn Beck is a great American. Many of 'We the SHEEPle are quite happy with the way things are AND the way things are headed! We ARE indeed in trouble... 'Kick Yahweh/God out, His Blessings go with!' At least Glenn asks questions of the Politicians, (Which they REFUSE to answer!), and that is more than we do! I too, would like to see a real UFO. I'd like it to land in Washington, but, like the old movie: The Day the Earth Stood Still, we'd shoot the poor guy as soon as he comes out of the ship to say: 'Hi!' (Sadly, that the way we are!)

If there was ever a "good" time for a UFO abduction, this is it. Aliens, Martians, anyone take Beck please.
