Here’s an excellent exposé at Salon by Alexander Zaitchik, on one of the main ideological sources for Glenn Beck’s extremist rhetoric — a paleo-right crank connected to the John Birch Society named Cleon Skousen, whose bizarre book (“The 5,000 Year Leap”) Glenn Beck has been relentlessly promoting: Meet the man ...

Still more serious bad craziness at Free Republic: Did Jesus Reveal to us the name of the Anti-Christ? Linked to this whacked out video. And just take a wild guess who hundreds of Free Republic commenters seriously believe is the anti-Christ.

I still don’t have a working cable TV connection in my new top-secret underground facility, so I missed Glenn Beck’s show today (I wouldn’t have been watching anyway, to be honest), but I understand from several lizardoid reports that Beck had some things to say about me. Apparently he claimed that ...

I’ll take a wild guess and predict that this article at The Daily Beast by Benjamin Sarlin will bring me at least half a dozen hate mails (and just as many emails of support): Right-Wing Becklash. In an interview, Johnson told The Daily Beast that he was extremely concerned by ...

Some more good clean harmless fun from jolly Glenn Beck, who switches from inept comedy to screaming craziness in the blink of an eye. [Video] (Hat tip: Allahpundit.)
David Frum asks “What is going on at Fox News?” The whole column makes good points (and Beck has already savaged Frum for it, of course), but let’s focus on one section: The audience for Beck’s Friday night special were each given copies of two books. One of them was Cleon ...

Michael A. Cohen has a piece in Politico today about the over-the-top irresponsible extremism and conspiracy theories promulgated by weeping Glenn Beck: Extremist rhetoric won’t rebuild GOP. Watching Fox News’ new sensation Glenn Beck is not for the faint of heart. It is a disquieting entree into the feverish mind ...

I’ve been expecting this meltdown since Glenn Beck started talking about the “End Times” on his Fox News show last week, but yesterday he went full-on survivalist. All he needs is a sandwich board reading, “Repent, sinners!” Is it irresponsible for Fox News to be airing this over the top, creepy ...
