Glenn Beck, he of the constant conservative-bullshit spewing, is about to enter into a domain generally reserved for crazy liberals: Reality TV.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Beck has teamed up with Vince Vaughn to make a show about filmmakers vying for a chance to create a documentary:

Contestants could be asked to create sizzle reels, execute key interviews for their proposed projects or pitch scenes to a panel of judges.

The show will air on TheBlaze, an Internet TV network owned by Beck, and will be called "Pursuit of Truth."

Vince Vaughn's Wild West Productions is producing the show. It will air alongside other "conservative, usually patriotic" programming, notes the Reporter.
