OP, you're a fucking laugh riot. Now you're going to do some teaching around here, eh?

Let me guess, you took the Course on Miracles when you were in massage school and now you know the answer is love, peace, and happiness. Well, thanks to Morrissey, we already knew that we might get it in the next world, so save your fucking fingers for your own self satisfaction. You are a real piece of work, you dipshit.

LelaBear warns you against watching truth, though OP has never even watched the program. What a fucking joke

Oh, I have watched the program,I have seen clips on the internet and read the transcripts. I'm not joking, this guy is just saying what you want to hear to lead you into a frenzy of stupidity over issues that have been fabricated just to divide us. It's really about the control, if you haven't figured that out by now, you might want to try a few tv free days and see how much clearer your mind is without all that fear and hatred poured into it.

Glenn Beck back in 2004 if my memory still works correctly turned his T.V. off for 90 days as an experiment. The results were stagering. He DID what you just suggested..no?

I don't watch any of them, threw my tv away years ago, but I have seen enough on the internet to convince me that...
"...I need to censor him." Got it. Have a nice life.

Strange way you have of interpreting my post. I realized years ago that the television is nothing but a programming tool, and is as toxic as a waste dump. And thank you, my life has been much nicer with out that brain sucking machine in it...try turning yours off awhile, you might be surprised what a relief it is to have all that crap out of your life...it is just meant to stir you up while it dumbs you down.

Re: Sick of Beck's Fear Mongering? You are not alone
Look what landed in my inbox today from the Free Press Action Fund...seems the 'real' journalist have had just about enough of him destroying the credibility of their profession.

Fear-mongering by the media is nothing new. But never before in our memory has it reached the fever pitch that I see every time I turn on cable news.

And no one in this pack of pundits has been more extreme than Glenn Beck. The Fox News Channel host concocts wild-eyed conspiracy theories, falsely labels people fascists and racists, and has hijacked the public debate over vital national issues.

Our concerns are not about partisanship; they're not about left versus right. They're about the media's responsibility to tell the truth. And it's why tens of thousands of Free Press activists signed our "Glenn Beck Doesn't Speak for Me" letter. Now, Free Press and ColorofChange are working together to make the media’s smear merchants pay the price for their attacks.

ColorofChange has asked all advertisers to pull their sponsorship from Beck's nightly program. More than 62 advertisers have listened, and the show's advertising revenues have plummeted -- making Beck a growing financial liability for Fox.

Please help us keep the pressure on by signing ColorofChange's call to action:

[link to colorofchange.org]

Some say that we should just ignore Glenn Beck’s media circus and it will go away. But Beck's attacks have actually harmed people. We need to tell Beck and his bosses that their efforts to stoke fear and prejudice come with consequences of their own.

Working together, Free Press and ColorofChange hope to send a clear message to other media as well: As we make critical decisions about the future of health care, the environment and our economy, we can’t let our media system be overrun by hysteria and misinformation.

Beck has a First Amendment right to say whatever he wants -- and we're not asking for him to be silenced. But he doesn't have the right to a cable news show funded by millions in corporate ad dollars. News media that have no sense of responsibility to the truth need to be held accountable, and they can be.

It's up to the public to speak out.

Thank you,

Josh Silver

P.S. Please help us spread this important campaign by forwarding this e-mail to your friends, sharing it on Facebook or posting your support on Twitter.

P.P.S. Free Press' Tim Karr just wrote a great blog post about what hosts like Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh are really afraid of: a diverse media system. Check it out.

Glenn Beck is trying to SAVE the America that most of us love, from Obama and his racist, communist henchmen and toadies.

Glen Beck is and actor. He gets paid large amounts of money to spin fear into the minds of the lame and lazy.

If you get your info from only actors, your lacking in diversity, which is what you need to make informed decisions.

He's no different from Sean Penn or Madonna or any other actor being paid to make the bosses large amounts of money.

Re: Sick of Beck's Fear Mongering? You are not alone
I love these ACORN tapes! It's the most clever hoax ever pulled on a bunch of nitwits. And to release them one at a time, drip drip drip.

It's unmasked the fringe liberal media for what they are. It's unmasked Obama's support group for what they are. And it is making the American people actively dislike the socialist-in-chief.

It's the most fun I've ever had watching politics, and it will be a hard one to top.

Also, it's going to cost Obama's rump rangers $8.5 billion. That's some serious walkin around money!

Divide and conquer.

By stirring up those who oppose TPTB, they let their opposition play into the primary strength of TPTB. They make people feel like they are special or awake or aware by watching the show, all the while not realizing that all they're doing is aligning themselves with those same TPTB that they claim to oppose.

Divide and assimilate.

Do all those Beck fans seriously think Rupert Murdoch is going to run a show like that without it being part of a larger agenda? That Beck can just go on the air of a well-established propaganda wing of TPTB and say whatever he wants without their blessing?

The naivety. I kinda feel bad for those who get caught up in it.

Seriously - I can't think of a thread that could make the above point more clearly. Does any of this bullshit that you're all babeling on about make any difference? ACORN, healthcare, immigration, religion, racism, blah blah blah?

Could any of you go to work, do the exact opposite of what your boss wanted, cost the company money, and expect to have a job for very long? Likely not. Fox News is not a public service, it's not a journalistic outlet. It's a business. Anything coming out if it is only designed to better that business, not to better you or the country.

Regardless of whether or not he's speaking truthfully about certain topic, or whether he's covering issues the media currently ignores misses the point.

You're sitting in a fundamentally bankrupt country that's about 6-8 weeks from beginning to collapse around you, but rather than taking action, you funnel all that energy into Glen Beck. You let someone give voice to your observations, so that you don't have to take any action yourselves. He gives you an outlet for your frustration, and in his absence more people would be likely to take direct action to bring about change. Do you not think TPTB realize that?

Do you really think all this name calling is going to help when TSHTF? For all you know, these people you're bitching about are your neighbors, and guess what, you're all going to need each other to get through what's coming.

Instead, though, you're allowing a massive corporation to get you so fundamentally aligned with one point of view and worked up over it that you'd rather lash out at your fellow Americans than work with them.

TPTB are masters of repression through fear and violence, and ANYTHING coming out of the mainstream media only has divisiveness and conflict at it's core.

This division does nothing but feed into their mechanism of control. What they can not control, and what they can not defend against, is non-violent cooperation. Ignore them and you take away their power. Deify them, regardless of the POV, and you simply give them more power.

Time to grow up. If you truly believe in a future for America, then it's time to start working together to take it back. No billion dollar "news" corporation is going to help you do that. But it WILL help keep everyone polarized, because the only way we can defeat it is together.

That's why you've got FOX vs MSNBC, and now even polarized contributors within the same network. As long as you're fighting each other, you can't fight them. Clearly that strategy is working....

Re: Sick of Beck's Fear Mongering? You are not alone
Since President Obama's inauguration, Fox News has officially abandoned its already dubious standing as a news organization and is now engaging in outright political activism, completing its transition into the 24/7 media wing of the far-right conservative movement.

Fox News' leaders have admitted as much themselves. In a March interview with the Los Angeles Times, Fox News chief Roger Ailes described his network as "the Alamo," and Fox News vice president for programming Bill Shine has referred to the station as the "voice of opposition." Clearly, Fox's employees have taken their bosses' words to heart. Led by resident demagogue Glenn Beck, Fox has spent much of the year openly advocating against the Democratic Congress and White House. Beck and Fox aggressively promoted and encouraged attendance at the anti-Obama Tax Day tea parties in April and subsequent follow-up events, including this past weekend's 9-12 protest in Washington, D.C. During the August congressional recess, Fox hosts frequently lauded and encouraged the health care town hall disrupters. And now, emboldened by the resignation of White House green jobs adviser Van Jones, Beck and Fox have launched an all-out witch hunt against Obama officials and nominees.

Fox isn't going to change on its own. We have to expose the network for what it is. We have to fight back.

Media Matters has been a leading voice in the progressive community's effective and escalating response to the propaganda of the Right. In recent weeks, our friends at Color of Change have built a massive, ongoing campaign focused on getting advertisers to boycott Glenn Beck in response to his accusation that President Obama is a racist. Media Matters was the first group to capture and post the statement, which might have otherwise gone unnoticed. In the following days, we clipped dozens more outrageous Beck comments, documented his complete disregard for facts in a host of research items, produced a series of videos highlighting his abuses, and publicized a running tally of the companies that continued to advertise on his show.

The results have been immediate and significant. Within a few weeks following his initial outburst, Beck has lost an estimated 62 advertisers. According to Color of Change, this ad boycott costs Fox News nearly $600,000 every week. But we're not going to stop there. We're keeping the heat on Beck and will continue holding him accountable for his outlandish, incendiary rhetoric every day.
