Huh? Could you repeat that, please? I have no idea what you're talking about. What "group" do you belong to that you must "confirm information" before you present it to them? What are they going to think about Beck's apology for being wrong and ignorant if you didn't discover that he was wrong on his Tuesday show before Beck admitted that he was wrong? That's from Beck's own mouth.......words from his own mouth. How do you deny that?

The above post sounds a lot like a tape recording, a machine voice.

Beck also strongly encourages his listeners to independently verify the information that he, Beck, presents and make up their own minds.

Sounds fair to me.

Apparently you missed these two posts:

Clearly Mr. Beck wants to try to protect himself from lawsuits as well.

I think the news that Beck himself admitted he was wrong and "ignorant" was just far, far too much for the Beck fan. We may never hear from her again.

Of course Beck's suggstion inspires critical thinking and taking personal responsibility to seek the truth for yourself. This is not what liberalism teaches so I think the whole concept throws them.

How could you verify the information if everything printed is a lie, every news outlet is a lie (except Fox), even google is involved in the conspiracy, and it's world wide.

WOW I didnt even have to read the article to know you are grasping at straws.

Well, maybe to some people...
Have you heard Beck predict something as simple as that?

Great description.......Beck consideres himself the GREAT DECODER of events. And unfortunately for his devotees, they agree with him, and seem to have lost all objectivity and critical thinking skills.
I think that you have failed to see George Soros trying to make out that Beck is nothing but a conspiratorial person. Yep old Spooky Dude keeps that crap going all the time and you don't even know it.
