Well, you are thinking more of the producers and viewers and I'm thinking the best of Beorn's tribe.
Beorn's tribe is not paying the bills. The advertisers are paying the bills. The advertisers want conflict and drama because they have numbers that show that is what people want to watch. I mean, who watches to see serenity? How boring. The producers want what the advertisers want.

Besides, if he drives his fellow contestants crazy, it's going to get really nasty afterwards with all the claims for damages, lawsuits and such.
To quote the producers, "OUR NEXT SHOW!!! OUR MEAL TICKET HAS BEEN PUNCHED!!! BAWH-HAWH-HAWH-HAWH-HAWH!!!"

But what's more important, I think, is that such a rude, lazy and possessive person as Beorn does not deserve to be crowned to the winner of The Hobbit Survivor, so we might as well get rid of him now.
What's deserving got to do with it? This show is about ratings and remorseless vendettas (mostly the vendettas).

He had this disgusting cough that was grossing out the viewers and the producers were afraid he was contagious. Who'd want to watch a show full of invalids?

Ooh, even Middle-earth isn't safe from corruption!
Only somebody who failed to take a charitable view of human, elven, dwarven, hobbiten, orcish, eagleish, spideren, and enten natures would say something like that. How could you?!!
