Glenn Beck's comments draw a rebuke from one media watchdog group, whose spokesman calls them 'heartless.'
With at least 1,000 homes destroyed, two deaths reported and more than a quarter-million people ordered to evacuate, the wildfires ravaging Southern California have been as indiscriminate as they have been devastating.

Maybe a little bit of piling on there Glenn?
He obviously did not mean what they say he meant. Otherwise he would not have said “Unfortunately.”
So now the talk show jihad by the left, media matters et al, turns to Beck.
They’re a riot.
Angling for his own letter from Reid or Pelosi?
LA Times hates Americans, story at 11
Get real.
Did anyone hear this comment by Glenn as stated by the LA Times?
It does not make any sense.
Was he referring to sea side cities?
I mean the Inland Empire is very conservative and more than 750 homes are gone, more to go today. Over one million people have been evacuated......
As I sit here looking out my window,, it is only 6AM and still dark, and the hills are glowing from the fires in San Diego County...very eerie.
I don’t “get” Beck at all. Reminds me of a side show barker.
When he interviewed Denis Leary (who I enjoy as a performer), Leary eventually got into the ‘Irish, Catholic, Boston” point of view mode. Rather than challenge him, Beck made one excuse after another for Leary’s opinions.
He’s done the same thing in the company of Sharpton.
I’ll listen to Glenn today to see what he really said.
It will be interesting to see the contrast with LA Times.
They really are piling on, aren’t they?
Kind of a dumb comment to make IMO. People with acerbic styles have a tendancy to say things that don’t add much to a situation. I like Beck but there are times he loses his effectiveness in being smug and snarky.
Considering the worst of it is hitting San Diego County, in particular some heavily Republican areas, I think I can conclude he’s a micro-brained MORON.
Maybe Glenn should run for Congress
Since this complaint is from Media Matters ... it's a guarantee that parts of Beck's comments are not reported
Media Matters is on a mission to shut down all conservative radio shows
Is anyone going to condemn Media Matters for their stance against free speech?
Condider the source. Media Matters continues in its efforts to destroy conservative talk radio taking statements out of context and jumping on misstatements even if they are corrected immediately thereafter.
I am shocked! I am outraged! Do you think we should start a campaign to get Nancy Pelosi to write a letter to CNN and have 220 House Democrats to sign it?
Dear Wolf Blitzer,
As you know, a colleague of yours, Mr. Glenn Beck, has viciously attacked fire victims by attempting to link their politics, with personal tragedy. We the undersigned Congressional leaders....(BLAH, BLAH, BLAH)
