Like most political commentators Glen Beck is a mixed bag ...
His biggest strength and his biggest weakness is that he doesn't "Go with the flow" and he often has guests on who talk about very unpopular things. While this may mean that you often (strongly) disagree with some of his guests, it also means that you're exposed to information that you wouldn't normally be exposed to (which gives you the opportunity to do research and inform yourself).
Personally, I don't watch Glen Beck anymore (Fox news isn't available in Canada) but I used to watch him occassionally when he was on CNN. I give him a lot of credit though because he was talking about the economic crisis before anyone was willing to admit there was a problem; which allowed me to investigate, realize there was a problem, and move my savings to safer investments.
