As Twitchy reported, #IWantTheBlaze was riding high on Twitter’s list of trending topics Tuesday as people demanded Glenn Beck’s television network on their cable and satellite systems. A late celebrity push comes from magician Penn Jillette, who has perhaps the best reason yet to demand The Blaze: love.
@pennjillette @glennbeck Anything? You don't agree with anything he says? Silly.

Libertarian Jillette must certainly see eye-to-eye with Beck on some topics, right?
@donnabonnell @glennbeck I wrote "it seems" and it was intended as hyperbole.

@TaB_Wise @Jay_Severin @glennbeck I was kidding a bit.

@marcrux @glennbeck Nope, I was not paid — he's just a friend. I do the same for @Lawrence O'Donnell.

@TimsSketchPad @glennbeck Spammer? That's what tweeting for a friend is? That cynicism will destroy your heart.

@TimsSketchPad @glennbeck Oh dear. I didn't realize who you were. Nevermind. I'm spamming just to anger you. I always fall for trolls.

@TimsSketchPad @glennbeck I think I understand pretty perfectly. Thanks for your time.
