Tears of a Clown: Glenn Beck and the Tea Bagging of Ame
Shared by:noxx27
Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank takes a fair and balanced look at the unsettling rise of the silly Fox News host Glenn Beck.
Thomas Jefferson famously wrote that “the tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.” In America in 2010, Glenn Beck provides the very refreshment Jefferson had in mind: Whether he’s the patriot or the tyrant, he’s definitely full of manure.
The wildly popular Fox News host with three million daily viewers perfectly captures the vitriol of our time and the fact-free state of our political culture. The secret to his success is his willingness to traffic in the fringe conspiracies and Internet hearsay that others wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole: death panels, government health insurance for dogs, FEMA concen tration camps, an Obama security force like Hitler’s SS.
But Beck, who is, according to a recent Gallup poll, admired by more Americans than the Pope, has nothing in his background that identifies him as an ideologue, giving rise to the speculation that his right-wing shtick is just that—the act of a brilliant showman, known for both his over-the-top daily out rages and for weeping on the air.
Milbank describes, with lacerating wit, just how the former shock jock without a college degree has managed to become the most recognizable leader of antigovernment conservatives and exposes him as the guy who is single-handedly giving patriotism a bad name.

Sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Anyone who has listened to Glenn Beck for more than five minutes without having to stoop to a edit from youtube, would know that this book is a complete farce. Nothing in it is remotely ‘fair’ or ‘balanced’. If you have to put a picture like that on the cover and insult him five times in a paragraph, you’re no where near fair. This person has obviously never actually listened to him. FEMA death camps? Really? He’s made fun of that idea for years. He’s never believed that.
Don’t debase yourself by reading, or listening, to this garbage. If you want to know what he’s about, try actually listening to him.

Well said and accurate Stephanie.

Exactly right Stephanie.

All you need to know is that Dana Milbank is a “columnist” for The Washington ComPost. He voted for John McCain in 2000.
The National Enquirer has more credibility than this maroon.
The book’s paper its written on isn’t worth picking up my dog’s poop
