The radio and TV talk-show host gets such outsize media coverage—especially from the left—for the same reason he attracts conservative viewers: he validates their beliefs.
Hello, America.
Tonight, a report on how Glenn Beck is planning to replace our democracy with a fascist Mormon regime—and how he's relying on a Saudi Arabian terrorist sympathizer to help him do it.
I know, I know. You haven't read anything about Beck's nefarious plot in the paper. But that's the mainstream media—too busy refilling their lattes to bother covering our country's impending collapse. Good thing I have this chalkboard ready so I can diagram it out for you.

At this point, there are two types of people in America: the 10 million people who pay attention to Glenn Beck and the 294 million who try, and fail, to ignore him. Until last week I was one of the latter. I'd never watched his show on Fox News. I'd never listened to him on the radio. I'd certainly never read one of his books. And yet somehow I kept stumbling, via cable news and the blogs, upon footage of Beck calling President Obama a "racist" and/or weeping like a baby. He was like the political version of pollen—in the air, inescapable, irritating. Why, I asked myself, are we giving this guy so much attention? How is he different from other right-wing provocateurs like, say, Michael Savage?
Then I realized: to find out, I would have to experience Beck firsthand. I would have to enter the belly of the beast. So last week I decided to submit. Every day for five straight days I would I tune my television to Fox News at 5 p.m. sharp. I would see what I could see.

Newsweek wants a Communist Regime. Oh..they already got one.
Newsweek is still around? On my soul I couldn’t think of anyone who would read that rag.
You misspelled Newsweak.
Would we all be forced to wear magic underpants?
“Would we all be forced to wear magic underpants?”
Ha! Too true!
“fascist Mormon regime”....These leftists are “reading up” on Saul Alinsky.
I don;’t subscribe to Newsweek. Any Freepers who do would be well-advised to cancel it.
Newsweak is pissed that Beck is killing them.
Heck, I thought Newsweek morphed into a comic book. It sure gets a lot of laughs.
LLS
The traitor commie rats are scared to death of Beck’s lessons in progressivism/socialism.
LOL That’s just kinda funny no matter how you look at it.
I think that Romano’s cheese has gone rancid, just like his brain. He sounds like he’s the one who is paranoid, and a leftist, Obama suck-up at that.
I wonder what is the name of the far-left’s equivalent to the Illuminati? Oh, it’s called the Obama regime? Thanks for the information. With the push by Obama and Geithner to control all major American businesses now under way, I would say that Glenn Beck sounds very sane and Romano, insane (a denier of what Obama is doing to seize control of the key elements of the American economy, military, foreign policy, and media.
We call this “Creeping Fascism” or “Creeping Communism”.
LOL! Now it’s the left wearing that’s tin foil hats and seeing black helicopters!!
Last night, Glenn made fun of Newsweek’s current “America’s Back” cover story. He showed the cover of the magazine and laughed at the ridiculousness of the proposition that America is back when we have such high unemployment and high deficits. Newsweek has become a parody of itself.
He had a great show today.
Wants to abolish the department of education and public sector unions.
If that’s fascism, sign me up.
