Glenn Beck hates 9/11 survivors. Shocking as it may sound, Glenn Beck claimed that he hates 9/11 survivors. The Fox news personality and media clown has always been an outrageous demagogue, a pied piper to the illiterate, unwashed masses that make up the Fox news audience.
Beck's remarks were made on the September 9 broadcast of The Glenn Beck Program:
you know it took me about a year to start hating the 9-11 victims' families? Took me about a year.
And when I see a 9-11 victim family on television, or whatever, I'm just like, "Oh shut up!" I'm so sick of them because they're always complaining.
From anybody else the remark would be unbelievable, for Beck, it is just another day at the office. To add insult to injury, Beck made the comments about his hatred for 9/11 survivors in trying to describe how much he hates the victims of Hurricane Katrina that were abandoned by the Bush administration in New Orleans.
About the survivors in New Orleans Beck said: But the second thought I had when I saw these people and they had to shut down the Astrodome and lock it down, I thought: I didn't think I could hate victims faster than the 9-11 victims.
And that's all we're hearing about, are the people in New Orleans. Those are the only ones we're seeing on television are the scumbags...
Beck is a moral monster. He uses his position of influence to spread hate and misinformation. But good people are fighting back. Color of Change is leading a boycott, and over 60 national sponsors have pulled out of the program. Beck's blatant racism, his open contempt and disrespect for the President, is despicable.
The Fox news network, and everyone associated with the Glenn Beck program, share a deep and lasting shame. Beck is the new Joe McCarthy. Like McCarthy, Beck's demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as his public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents, will end in tragedy for Beck, and the network.
Ping.
The headline misquotes Beck then.
If I knew nothing about Beck and got my news from places such as this I would hate Glenn Beck too. It’s ashame people believe this.
In my opinion, step one in fixing this country is to inform the people.
So this guy dislikes beck? LOL
OMG..did you see the picture of the guy who wrote this piece of crap. I love how libs are outraged about disrespect to a President when that’s all they did for 8 years. Did this guy ever write an editorial about Olbermann and his antics..don’t have to answer that.
Please post some video of Glenn Beck saying this.
I assume this is taken out of context. I assume he hated those who were complaining about the millions of dollars they received and wanted more.
Hey Nicky, sounds like you’re scared to death of the truth. Just like all your socialist friends.
Read the comments after the article. I think a FReeping is in order.
Absolutely!! Let’s see it,please.
I watch and listen every friggin’ day during the week. He never said anything like this.
Could this crank be part of the Oberloser’s ‘Let’s Smear Beck’ campaign?
You know, I kind of agree. I was so sick and tired of hearing from the witches of East Brunswick, whining about their pain, and how the millions they were getting was not sufficient. Ann Coulter encapsulated my feelinga about these people in her book “godless”
Search YouTube...beck 911 families....he says not all of them, but only about 10. Beck did not like some of these families who complained that only got so much money.
Amazing! I watched his show Wednesday and I don’t recall him saying that. Love to see the video and transcript to see the context.
Is this guy talking about Jeff Beck, the guitar player?
Boris Becker, the tennis player.
