From the January 4 edition of Fox News' Glenn Beck:

A clue . . . Beck mentioned it again and told the same lie again. That's what warranted another post. Capiche?
It just doesn't make sense to me for THE EXACT SAME DISCUSSION TOPIC to be posted within minutes. Slow Beck day, I guess.
Beck lies.
I'm not defending a website. Unlike you, troll, who has nothing whatever to say about Beck's lie, I'm defendingtruth. Maybe it's different in Wingnut World, but I don't need to be paid to do that.

He was arrested and did spend jail time. According to him, the arrest was unlawful in itself, but it still resulted in him getting to know some iron bars.
Note that those are Van Jones's own words.
The truth was that Van Jones was arrested while representing the law firm that he worked for, serving as a monitor for a PEACEFUL protest in San Francisco. It was a bogus arrest, and a clear overreaction by the San Francisco Police Department, a fact that has been substantiated by the SFPD paying Jones a cash settlement for violating is rights.
More to the point, these were facts that could easily have been confirmed by that lying weasel of a Bircher, Glenn Dreck. Instead, he LIED in a shameless Goebellian manner in order to smear Jones, and to weaken the President. Dreck demonstrated his pronounced deficiencies of character and a sociopathic indifference to the truth and the damage that his malicious lies wreak upon others.
Aside from that, there are plenty of examples on here, and everywhere, that point out Beck's lies, misinformation, distortions, and other crap he spews.
Opinions can be wrong too.
"Blue is a pretty color" is an opinion.
Compare these to:
"FEMA is building concentration camps" is a lie.
"Obama is a racist" is a deliberately misleading statement.
"ACORN rigged the elections" is flat-out nonsense.
For instance, all of the accusations of racism aren't facts, but opinions.
Wow!
Some people have suggested that.
Also, thinking that someone has a point is not the same as defending them.
I didn't say ALL of the topics about Beck are opinions. I said MANY.
That's what you wrote of Beck's claim here.
Liar.
But, I'll clear up my stance, because lying is not what I'm about.
Does MM support their claims with facts, YES. Are MANY of MMs' topics about Beck opinions, YES.
Were many of those opinion topics used to show Beck as "misinformer of the year?" YES.
Does many mean ALL, NO.
BTW, if you believe Beck has a "point," you are a very, very sad individual.
As I pointed out above, in one article by MMFA, they show Beck objecting to being labeled Misinformer of the Year, and claiming that MMFA didn't back up their assertions with research.
Then in this one, they show how he's full of crap with his first assertion since he actually points to the actual site that had the proof.
Different views of a similar complaint. It's not the same exact topic.
I think that we can all draw some reasonable inferences from his failure to respond to that question.
He's been asked before and never answered. I draw the same conclusion.
"look, I don't necessarily agree with the guy, I just respect his right to have an opinion, so much so that the words 'Glenn Beck' cause me to instantly post on this site, like clockwork.
Sincerely, Pretty much every k1dork post."
Now you can go back to whatever you are doing when Glenn Beck isn't being criticized. No fee.
Like calling you a "stupid conservative troll" is redundant????
I think Beck and his minions at Fox are very close to Hitler Radio. The wingnut media we have today would be the type of media Hitler would use until he could gain power.
He represents the most dangerous element of our society, those with very little understanding of how things work and absolutely no desire to learn.
Why be so redundant with your inane arguments that people dislike him for his "opinions." They dislike him because he is a dishonest, hate-filled, uneducated, racist who is convincing dishonest, hate-filled, uneducated, racist people that he has a "point."
Becky also is a paid fascist by corporations.
See Beck aint so bad......
Then again, I tried with correct spellings.
If you totally ignore Beck's targeting, freezing, personalizing, and polarizing of Jones, Jennings, Creamer, Sotomayor, etc. etc., night after night, then Beck doesn't look like a hypocrite or a disciple of Saul Alinsky at all.
I've heard they're also plaster casters.
For those like Limbaugh, Hannity and Mormonster Beck, the word "fact" has a very special definition.
For them, a fact is anything they say.
Got that?
Any other artificial arguments?
That's a fact.
There he goes starting a new year as the misinformer for 2010.
Hillary Clinton did not start MMFA. A former conservative David Brock did. Second, show proof George Soros funded MMFA? He never will so why ask.
*Facepalm*
