Glenn Beck serves a valuable function in educating the mostly-ignorant public about American history. For instance, he is an ardent admirer of George Washington and frequently brings in writers of Washington biographies to acquaint us with the amazing details of his life and accomplishments. Nobody else could have achieved this.
Here’s another kudo to Beck. He brings in evangelical ministers and authors to discuss Whitfield, etc. (even though he is of the Mormon faith.) He does not “discriminate” as to the theological background of those on his show. He’s not afraid of the “G” word or the “J” word, and where else on TV, or radio for that matter do you hear religion discussed so openly.
