Note that I didn't use the word "earned" or even "made" (which tends to imply the same) - I think of Beck much like I do most of those on wingnut welfare, like Limbaugh, Hannity, Coulter, etc. - like money sponges for gullible, hateful rubes:

File this fellow and his various products right next to Hannity in the "Douche" section of the health & hygiene department.
If these quotes are right, goddamn, he's risking alienating some of his loyal teabagger disciples (at least those who can read - ooops, sorry!!
).
Excerpt (highlighting mine):
The controversial Fox News loud-mouth - hero to conservatives, dartboard fodder to liberals - made $32 million in the 12 months ending March 1, reports Forbes magazine.
His company, Mercury Radio Arts, churns out books, runs a profitable Web site, and manages his sold-out appearances.
Beck insists he's not political, even after leading the charge against health care reform, feeding the frenzy of the Tea Party members, and telling his loyalists President Obama has "a deep-seated hatred for white people."
"I could give a flying crap about the political process," Beck tells the new issue of Forbes magazine (Forbes.com).
"We're an entertainment company."
And his brand of entertainment has paid off.
"I aspire to Walt Disney's never-ending quest to try to improve the quality of what he's doing, his never-ending vision of, 'Yes, it can be done,'" Beck said.

Oh, and for those who are going to write "Stop being jealous!!!", this is for you; I made it special! :thefinger
