Earlier this year, Glenn Beck revealed that he’d offered to buy the viewer-starved Current TV. Current turned him down because he was not “aligned” with its point of view. To be fair, Beck’s “point of view” includes knowing how to cultivate an audience, and Current clearly wanted nothing to do with that.
The network instead wound up selling itself to Al Jazeera, and today, cable and satellite providers began offering Al Jazeera America to 48 million Americans. That’s all well and good, but what about the millions of Americans who aren’t keen on blatant left-wing propaganda? They deserve a voice. And Beck and other liberty lovers want them to get it:

Tweeters are stepping up in droves to demand that providers add The Blaze to their lineups:
Do something productive…call or tweet your cable provider and ask them to #GetTheBlaze Your kids will thank you one day!

The Blaze means a lot to many people. Here’s why:
@CoxHelp please #gettheblaze. We, the customers, request a station with our point of view and interests. @glennbeck I called but no answer

@TWC If I am to remain a customer it is important that my values are reflected #gettheBlaze @theblazetv

I admit it @theblaze is a rising star in a broken media landscape. If Big TV allows me to #gettheblaze ill probably watch it, and like it

@Uverse Please, carry TheBlaze! More than one point of view is a good thing. Broader information = Clearer picture. #GetTheBlaze
