Glenn Beck freaks out about Media Matters calling out his lies

Wingnuts • March 2011 • Views: 1,215

Beck seriously thinks that everyone employed by Media Matters is only there to counter his lies? He is mentally ill isn’t he?

Hey guess what? Beck is doubling down on the crazy.

Although everyone is not fixated on him and him alone, everyone at media matters IS employed to attack him (and anyone else on the right). Their reason for being is to bring down FOX News. They are not balanced or unbiased in anyway. It is actually in their "about us".

Becks always freaks out about the truth.

BUT they only exist because FOX and their paid talent lie SO MUCH every fucking day. If FOX actually operated in reality and facts then there would be no need for Media Matters to point out their incessant lies and bullshit.

Are you saying Beck is a False Profit?

They are not hired to attack everyone on the right you fucking buckethead.

Media Matters for America is a Web-based, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media.

Tell your conservative buddies to stop pumping out the mis-information and then they won't have to cry about being "attacked" by quote of their own freaking words.

I do think Beck is mentally ill. Remember that youtube video from his hospital bed after an operation? I think Fox news is using someone sick to spread their sick agenda.

It is funny, but when O'Keefe says he is using the persons own words, you are the first to shout "Edited video", and "Biased".

MM actually does that everyday. Editing and quoting out of context the "persons own words".

The only difference is that you give the NPR guy, or the ACORN person the benefit of the doubt.

Equivalence between O'Keefe and MM is digging a deeper hole. MM does not misquote out of context like O'Keefe and Beck do, they merely play unedited segments of Beck's programming. O'Keefe/Beck and MM are not two sides of the same coin, to assume as much is a serious error.

'Everyone' at MM is employed to review all media bias, not just Glenn Beck. Beck imagined it was mostly all about him and you made the same assumption as well. He also made the error that 'it takes more work to tell the truth than it does to spread lies.' It's the exact opposite: it's easier to spread lies and misinformation than it is to retort them with truth. The campaign to deny AGW is the most relevant example.

Yeesh, I mistyped. I should have said 'It's the opposite meaning.'

What a joke. How much of Beck's show would I have to hear in order for the comparison between Reform Judaism and radical Muslims to be "in context"? Two hours? 10 hours? His entire career going back to when he did his wacky morning show with the chimp sidekick?

Have you ever thought about how much free time you would gain if you stopped engaging in "tu quoque" arguments here?
