CRTV, TheBlaze merge, bringing together conservatives Glenn Beck, Mark Levin

TheBlaze and CRTV have merged to create Blaze Media, the companies announced on Monday, in a move they say will allow the new conservative entity to reach 165 million people via television, online and on social media. The Blaze was founded by former Fox News host Glenn Beck in 2011 not long after parting ways with the network while CRTV was founded in 2014 by current Fox News host Mark Levin, who also hosts a nationally syndicated radio program. -- The Hill
