He's hit and miss on occasion but this is the type of show we need to see more of. Educate the masses! Pique their curiousity. Lead them to the pool of knowledge!

OMG, this show pissed me off. When he was showing clips of "volunteer propaganda" he showed a clip from 30 Rock which was in no way pushing public service. I know cuz I saw it in context.

Propaganda must be subtle in order for it to be effective. In fact, the person who falls victim must not be aware of it, in order for it to work. They aren't going to push anything, just casually introduce it in a positive light.

Is your statement concerning Glenn Beck, or the show mentioned in 1000 point's post?

Just curious... thanks.

Both. I still don't trust Glenn Beck because he is guilty of mixing B.S with truth, which is classic controlled opposition. Most of what he says is good, but then he destroys his credibility when he says stuff like Rick Santorum an "incredibly honest guy". Rick Santorum is so neocon, he makes Dick Cheney look like Ron Paul for those who don't know.

he's wrong about a few things. Beck is getting on one guy for complaining about corporate news and that they own too much. Bush de-regulated it so they could own all the competition. That kind of de-regulation is bad because it doesn't allow more people to enter the market, and makes it easier for big corporations to monopolize the news.

How do explain the negative light at the end of this clip?

I don't trust Beck either, but the parts of the show I saw were absolutely fantastic. Considering the number of people that we are trying to reach that watch that show, I'm quite happy about it actually.

Applaud him when he spreads the message.

Denounce him when he does not.

He makes a lot of contradictory statements and is way too dramatic for my taste. I am dizzy from the spin on this one...

I think we would all agree that this new admin is not the group we want to fix this problem.

Seriously guys, 30 rock is written buy guys like Donald Glover (http://www.iamdonald.com/). This guy is just funny, he's not a propagandist.

No shit, they would force companies to have a liberal show for every conservative show instead of letting more people have access to airwaves so the 'free market' could decide what show's were on the air.

Thing is, I don't want to get my news from either the government or from Rupert Murdock. If we can keep the government out of the internet then I don't really care what happens to the other news media, which are dinosaurs anyway.

How do I explain it? This explains it. They get payed, or incentivised to put volunteerism in their show like 60 other shows last week. It's conditioning. It's propaganda.

the guy is a neo-con goy-shield. Last time I watched Beck (2 years ago) he was pounding his fist about the terrorists and how we had to rescue Israel. uhhh....I guess they are tugging on his strings to a different tune now as he appears to have dropped that in favor of Obama basing.

The Daily Show poked fun at the Beck et al Faux propaganda machine last week, showing how Beck would talk up a very old story (the Feb. incident where students sang lyrics modified in a pro-Obama way) in his 'commentary,' then the 'news' division would talk up the 'buzz' Fox commentators were making about the matter as if it was fresh story.

Beck is a tool of the two party puppet show. If he attacked the authoritarian reaches of Republicans the same way he attacks Obama, or ever apologed to pro-liberty people for the bashing he has been giving us over the last few years, then maybe he could be said to be chaging. Until then, nada.

This forum is stuck on repeat. A whole bunch of people go "I don't trust him. Definitely controlled opposition" or "He is too wild" and then me and a few others speak wonderful words of how Beck is needed to push our message. blah blah blah.

So what do I do? Keep going with it!

I thought this show was one of the best, not quite The best though. They get progressively better, with a few high and low points. I'm rather tired of watching the same video clips through the show and then repeatedly throughout several days and weeks. I'd also like to see Glenn do some serious interviews with people. He used to be able to hold it together on CNN. Not sure what the hell happened.

Suggestion: Pick up Arguing with Idiots. It was...fun! And I don't enjoy reading, but his humor kept it from monotony. Some of it wasn't right, but the majority was right on the money (especially on guns). If only Walmart sold End the Fed, I'd be set. With no money in the bank account (won't explain that) and no big book stores for at least 30 miles, Glenn had to replace Ron.

Single handeely this Fox pundit has turned Republican party into Libertarians.

Credit goes to Glenn and Fox owner Rupert for giving him a chance on his network.

Beck is here to insure we stay in the left-right paradigm and to alienate the left from the freedom message. There is ZERO chance of us broadening our coalition now.

I probably still consider him a neocon plant and media pimp if you asked my unvarnished view.
