On the March 22 broadcast of Fox News Radio 600 KCOL's Ride Home with The James Gang, host and KCOL program director Scott James likened former Vice President Al Gore's "mass persuasion campaign" on global warming to Nazi propaganda efforts. Gore announced the initiative during his congressional testimony on March 21. James' comments were similar to those of CNN Headline News host Glenn Beck, who on his March 22 broadcast said Gore “sounded a little bit like” Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.
From the March 22 broadcast of Fox News Radio 600 KCOL's Ride Home with The James Gang:
JAMES: Busy day, lots of stuff to talk about, because if you didn't know, and, and it's -- by the way, Al Gore's campaign to make sure that you know -- the Earth has a fever. A fever. I'm waiting for you to find the song. Chris is looking frantically. [Laughs] A fever. And, and, and we're gonna find out whether or not we can -- we can cure it our not. It, it, it scares me the language that he used on Capitol Hill the other day. Because apparently by June you will be inundated by a massive -- these are his words -- massive persuasion campaign. You don't think this is all but a socialist movement? You don't -- it's all but a socialist movement? For crying out loud. It's a persuasion campaign. As he says, massive persuasion -- and if you have kids in school, God forbid, because that will be epicenter of said persuasion campaign. It's going to be fascinating to watch. [Using a German accent] “Because you will buy into the global warming, and you will be persuaded, sieg heil!” It's what it sounds like to me. Persuasion campaign.
