An era is two years????????????

It’s the end of an era: Glenn Beck is leaving his daily talk show on Fox News later this year, he and Fox announced Wednesday. The show, called “Glenn Beck,” had seen a precipitous decline in ratings over the last year, and Mr. Beck’s departure was not unexpected.

Not long ago, the populist rabble-rouser of the right and self-described “rodeo clown” was flying high. Beck began at Fox a little more than two years ago, in January 2009, having jumped from CNN Headline News. Coincidentally, that was right before the birth of the tea party, and he quickly became one of the movement’s leading advocates.

Considering how long Olberman was on MSNBC, that must have been "an era of epic proportions"

As old as the CSM is, time goes fast, making two years as long as an era. LOL

When you have short term memory problems, two yrs. might seem like an era.
