It's simple. Tiger Woods is black (I know caublinasian) and OJ is black so they are the same because you know all black men who marry white women are unfaithful murders. Oh and infidelity is the same as murder. If you are black and cheat on your white wife, you are a murder. If you are white and cheat on your white wife, you were just having some marrital issues that need to be worked out.

Glenn Beck is a nutjob.

If he said it, I am appalled. As for his personal life, he is an alcoholic and apparently a recovering drug user, but that has nothing to do with this. What do you know about his personal life other than what I just mentioned, whiich he has never tried to hide?

Anyone who compares Woods to Simpson should hang their head in shame, anyone who is a recovering drug user and is clean should not have this brought up period...

It's right there in the link provided by OP with audio. He most certainly did say it.

People bring up his problems because it's kind of hypocritical to call out others when you've had your own issues. Glass houses and stones and all, you know.

Personally, I don't watch him and could care less about what he says. There are plenty of other news sources and opinion mongers out there to agree/disagree with. He is just not worth the effort.
Beck's clips often appear on other shows and are passed around the internet in editorial type blogs. It's not hard to hear about what he says when he makes outrageous remarks like comparing OJ to Tiger. In addition, some of us who are not 'fans' still watch on occasion just to keep tabs on what he's doing/saying because, in my opinion, he is relevant in that he influences the attitudes and opinions of many of his adoring type viewers...and not in a good for society way.

OJ was acquitted. Just sayin'.

True, he was acquitted in a criminal court but the civil court ruled against him.

Sounds about right. I think this goes back to the old days. Jack Johnson was known for liking White women(he is Black), and many people hated him for it. All of this going on is no different, just manifested in a different way.

If you truly find him so offensive, I would think that you would avoid any article that cites his name. Much easier to ignore when you avoid anything he says. For the most part, that is what I do.

Did I say he didn't say it, I was asking where the link was cause I didn't see it?

There are all kinds of issues and the past is exactly that..

Ignoring the coverage on a wildfire doesn't protect you from being destroyed by it if you're in its path. Beck is like that. He as the potential to destroy if not checked once in a while by the truth. I have several family members who are always quoting Rush, Beck and Hannity so it helps to know what these guys are actually saying instead hearing just the regurgitated versions.

Did you even listen to the clip? You know Beck is also a comedian... right?

Since you guys follow his every move I would have thunk you'd know that by now... You don't have to like his comedy or him but there 100's if not 1,000's of comedians who "go there".

Of course your puppet master wouldn't want to mention all that.
