I know there was some discussion on some of the threads yesterday regarding Glenn Beck (and other media outlets) misrepresenting Governor Palin's stance on the stimulus package.
Yesterday, on his TV show, Glenn Beck stated that Sarah Palin was for the stimulus and he was disappointed in her. Some people on this site and other sites emailed him to correct the record. Well, he listened and he did indeed correct himself.
On today's television program, about 10 minutes into the show, he said that he was wrong and that Gov. Palin does NOT support the stimulus in its current form.
So, let's give credit where credit is due. To all of you who wrote him and to Mr. Beck for being man enough to correct himself.
Finally, of course, Beck has always been pretty honest, but I doubt we’ll see some of the print and blog journalists(sic) retract their statement. They’ll continue to repeat the BS.
Glad to hear it, I was wondering. The entire rest of the media left and right don’t get it, are ready to thrash her about anything.
That AP article misrepresented many GOP governors’ positions. The title was especially dishonest.
kudos to GB
This proves we STILL have a voice. We can continue to fight the good fight. I don’t like the media lying about anyone, and I am SO glad that Glenn retracted his statement. Perhaps Sarah might be willing to go back on his show
Thank you for posting this.
There are some on FR who will still continue to push the
Liberal - Libertrian Palin smears.
Almost as dishonest as bloggers identifying the Alfalfa dinner as some sort of evil conspiracy..
My apologies to the Governor for believing the lies. Now I can put my life sized Palin Poster back on the wall.
Holy cow, you have a life sized Sarah poster..where did you get it?
The only thing this pay for playing bill stimulates is leftist constituents. We won’t have much of an economy left to recover, if this trillion dollar payoff gets signed into law. The inflationary affect alone will eat us up. Pelosi should be run out of the country for this criminal lunacy.
No way would Sarah support this sham.
Glenn Beck is employed by Faux News-Obama. Retractions mean nothing. The damage is done. “Palin supports the stimulus” is now in the minds of The Sheep.
If someone has video link to Glenn’s retraction, please post. Those of us at work missed it :(
The guy is a dipstick.
At least he corrected himself. Tons of people will continue to repeat this, even if they know it’s not true, just to smear her.
Glenn Beck is a fair man.
When he said it, did he say it like he meant it and was sorry for believing the BS or did he say it like he was being forced to say it?
BECK IS THE BEST!!!
Far more honest and true than O’Reilly!!!
So Team Romney and his RomneyBOTs continue attack Gov. Palin.
Then pretending otherwise. Anyone surprized?
Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney
Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?
Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?
Yesterday was the first time I watched his show. Ever. Even though I knew he had made an error, I came away liking him.
Today, after reading his retraction, I really like him.
