Your other offer was from Beck when he was still at CNN. Why don't you quote some of Beck from his "Common Sense"? Do you really think that either of these two things has a whole lot to say about the lies he told the other day? I don't but surely these articles can serve as ammunition for the rest of the Beck haters aboard. It seems that you did your job very well but haven't really said much about his lies the other day.
What are you talking about? I do NOT judge a person by ONE show. I was curious about him and that is why I did my research. I bet even the worst dictator can give one decent speech, but that doesn't make him a good person ( I am not comparing Beck to a dictator, but trying to get you see what I mean).
I watched the show from 21/10, I thought that was the one you were talking about.

ALSO: What do you mean by "the other was from Beck when he was on CNN"?
Did he become a different person with different views? If so, then YOU should question his integrity and honesty if he changes his opinions like his socks.
I have listed the many things Beck was for, things he shouldn't have supported because if he practised what he preaches!

You are so unfair. I did not used any stupid names for him and only provided links to what Beck really said and not some blogs about him. Maybe you should look into the things more before you judge people on here.

Beck had just moved to Fox when that article was written. I wondered what that had to do with his show the day before yesterday. I still wonder about it.

Explanation?
Because NN provides you and every other consumer with every content on internet without making one content slower than another or even blocking a content.
For e.g.: an internet provider could sign a contract with CNN and block Fox news from his pipes. That is what NN wants to prevent.

Or would you prefer to read The Economist : the same news about Comrade Murdoch's connection to the commies: Search for The Economist: Comrade Murdoch.(Rupert Murdoch's News Corp to form joint venture with China's People's Daily newspaper)

WITHOUT apparent irony, Rupert Murdoch proclaimed on June 13th that the People's Daily, the Communist Party's newspaper in China, was an "ideal partner" for News Corporation, his global media conglomerate. This is the same Mr Murdoch who two years ago was declaring that satellite television, in which he is heavily involved, posed an "unambiguous threat to totalitarian regimes everywhere." - The Economist
Beck is not an entertainer in the way you want to marginalize him as. Secondly, you are worried about possible, unproven commie ties to a news organization, but agree with them being in the WH. How insane is that?

Poor Roy. I'll bet you are sorry you started this thread. Why do you do it? When no one was talking about Beck, and you had to open a thread about him just to ask if he lied yesterday. heh-heh

He side stepped when I asked him that question and accused me of attacking him..

Then why does Glenn Beck describe himself as a "rodeo clown"?

He's there for sensationalism because that's what gets ratings. Otherwise, Antiques Road Show would get higher ratings than Flava of Love.

But it doesn't, because Flava of Love is more entertaining... like a rodeo clown.

Wow. The OP got owned on this thread.

I guess it's proven, once again (I've posted several instances of his lying myself, but they were all ignored).

Glenn Beck is a proven liar.


End the thread. The OP was answered.

He is a political entertainer, and I have never agreed to anything about WH. Why would you accuse me of such?

The FOX connection to communists is a proven fact, while the WH connection is not. You may be able to find someone in the WH staff (like Jones) who has been a commie in the past, but there is no connenction between the current WH admin itself and the communists. Murdoch is the centre piece of FOX and he himself is connected to the communists, and since he makes their corporate policy, it puts the whole corporation in it neck-deep.
