Oh Look, Another Glenn Beck Makeover
patheos ^ | September 20, 2017 | Ed Brayton

Posted on 09/30/2017 9:37:01 AM PDT by conservative98

How many times can one person claim to have had some huge epiphany and that they’re going to do things totally different from now on? Glenn Beck seems intent on finding out. About once a year he declares that he has learned from his past actions and will now be all about good things. The latest attempt at a reset:

I want to get out of the “news and opinion” business and focus on “facts and perspective”.

News is breaking. Let others be first. I want to be driven by facts. I want us to be right and without the hype.

Facts are solid and must be our foundation if we are going to survive as a culture.

Perhaps it is subtle to most but not to me and I hope not to my team. It isn’t just word play. It is a different way to write, speak and behave. To succeed we can’t just say it, we have to live it every second of everyday.

We have been working hard all summer and have had to turn this thing 180 degrees in approach – there is no one modeling this so we all are hoping we get it, but it is going to take us a couple of months. (Thus, the soft launch.).

Hopefully, you’ve seen a difference already in some of our work and headlines.

I am betting that there are more people like me, that want to educate themselves and follow the important events of the day, but are so tired of the spin, bias and hate.

What is the difference between “news and opinion” and “facts and perspective”?

These go to eleven.

He’s not quite a homo but he is also not quite an adolescent girl.

"I don’t care what make-over Beck announces, I won’t visit The Blaze, and I won’t listen to what he has to say."

Ditto.

I think he sees what happened with megyn Kelly and is fearful about his future.

Beck made the cardinal sin of believing his own press. He really thought he was Moses and people would follow him anywhere.

The day to day melodrama is very offputting.

I don’t care what others say here. Beck is a really good man who is tormented.

Maybe some of the Cheetos got into his brain

I think trying to swear Cruz in on a compass is something you just don’t come back from. LOL!

Do you know him personally?

I don’t. I know what he says about himself...he is a recovering alkue and junkie. We are good at manipulating others. We are very good at lying and making you believe it. He is a Mormon. He calls Trump a dictator and fascist. He calls Trump supporters all sorts of things including brown shirts and fascists.

I don’t personally know Glenn Beck. I do know how he behaves on air and what he says....those are not the words or actions of a good man

Beck has O’Reilly on his radio show every Friday. Apparently he’s trying to get his ratings up.

Isin’t he a Mormon? There is only ONE TRUE LIVING GOD, so if he was listening to someone it must have been the devil.

That sure was a crazy stunt. I was disappointed T. Cruz went along with it. Then there was the threat to harm Trump. And the insane talk during the primaries. I have forgotten his absurd comments except they convinced me Beck just isn’t normal.
