      Glenn "Charles Manson" Beck can blame video games for creating "killers", but when this uneducated fringe lunatic is screeching to a mentally fragile audience that we need a revolution, suddenly he cried out "not guilty".  The entire Fox network is one cumulative and pathetic display of anti-Americanism.  The idiots that watch and defend this non-sense should be embarrassed.  Unfortunately, you need a soul to possess shame and humility.  Conservatism = terrorism.  Fox is joke.  Fact.

        Murdoch is determined to keep Americans divided. That is why racist like Beck and Hannity are permited to spew such hatred toward a fairly elected President.

        If Murdoch respected the will of the American people he would fire both Beck and Hannity for being so disrespectful to the countries newly elected leader.

          Racist is a strong word. To criticize the president doesn't make one racist.

      One of the commenters here kept asking for "proof" that Beck was inciting violence. Problem is, Bush & Cheney, in late '02 and early '03, were clearly encouraging Americans to believe that Saddam Hussein was working hand in glove with Osama bin Laden. Polls showed that they were quite successful at suggesting this. They didn't really do that through blatant, flat-out statements of alleged facts, they did so through suggestions and through the constant putting of Hussein's name in close proximity to bin Laden's name.

      Beck's approach is somewat similar, he says that President Obama wants to take your guns away in front of a film of marching Nazis.  Is he saying that Obama's a Nazi? Not in so many words. Is he very strongly suggesting that Obama's a Nazi? Absolutely!
