Glenn Beck Suspended

For saying the following lines on July 28th, Glenn Beck is suspended:

"This president is a guy who has exposed himself over and over again who has deep-seated hatred for white people.... This guy is, I believe, a racist."

Advertisers bailed out on his show after he said these line. Of course Fox suspended him for his rant. He should make a public apology.

He was not suspended. He is on vacation. If you have evidence of a suspension I would like to see it. To suspend Glenn Beck would either be a great public stunt or a total ratings killer. Regardless, he was on O'Reilly Tuesday night and it was very clear that the network--which is promoting his return from vacation all day long, as well--is solidly behind him. Also, he has been planning a change of revenue strategy for some months now, so whatever the leftist advertisers that are deserting him end up doing (Geico, Progressive, etc.) his audience will remain intact and loyal. Fox will stay the course. And then some.

Sorry, but if my president went to KKK meetings before I would call him a racist. Rev. Wright's Black Panther sermons which Obama sat and listened to and never opposed leads me to follow logically to the truth. (I lived in Chicago my whole life and have had a few black friends who told me they left Wright's church because of the bigotry.) Beck should not apologize for speaking his mind and the truth.

I hate to see right wing whack jobs lose their mouthpiece. Get him back on the air before they have to think for themselves.

here in the U.S. every one is entitled to voice out her/his opinion; what happened to the freedom of speech in the U.S.?

To anonymous #2:
Glenn Beck is hardly a mouthpiece for "right wing whackjobs." He's a media personality who many centrists and even some of the left/center-left agree with to an extent.

And to the author of this post...he shouldn't apologize for the truth. Obama was bred into a racist by the people he surrounded himself with; from a terrorist to a hate-driven "church". Get educated and study some black liberation theology and Saul Alinsky if you want the truth about what Obama's hidden views are.

But i'm guessing that you, being in the Philippines and all, don't care to look into it. He's going to make a huge mess out of the country and i think it'll be done on purpose.

"The only people who listen to Glen Beck are unintelligent trailer trash. You are losing your old segregated way of life. Of all of America’s people-you need healthcare the most. (Moonshine and chain smoking) What I am most shocked is the fact you guys even own a computer."

Anonymous, in his/her enlightenment (albeit covert) makes some interesting unfounded assumptions. Allow me to disabuse you of your false notions. Then, once your mind is clear, you can think about Glenn Beck. First of all, I for one don't live in a trailer, but in a 4-bedroom 3-bath with 4-car garage. While I don't equate "intelligence" with "education," I would note that I have a BA, an MA, and a PhD. In American Politics. I neither drink nor smoke and have been on the Internet since the 1980s. And between myself, my husband, and my kids, we have seven computers, three of which are laptops.

I must say, though, the world must be changing. Once up on a time, the conservatives were all "rich" and "greedy." Now, apparently, we are not just stupid, but also poor.

Fascinating how people with no argument not only respond with deranged personal attacks--they even have to fabricate the "persons" they are attacking!

Have a nice night. And check out some true truth over at In Defense of Liberty. We promise not to bite. Much.
