Not notable. I found one very short news story on nymag.com basically poking fun at him, and a couple of other mentions. But nothing that counts as in-depth coverage. I don't think Mercury Radio Arts is notable either (at the time of writing it's at AfD), so a merge there doesn't make sense. Colapeninsula (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. If there was an article for Mercury Radio Arts, I'd recommend a redirect there. However that doesn't seem to have an actual article and I don't think that it's entirely appropriate to redirect to TheBlaze or to Glen Beck's article. If someone wants to create an article for MRA, I have no problem with this redirecting there. However as far as Balfe's notability goes, he has none outside of MRA. Everything I found was in relation to Beck or to MRA, none of which went into him in-depth. Other than the 40 Under 40 nod and a few trivial sources mentioning he became COO and president of MRA, there's nothing out there- certainly not enough for an article at this time.
