 Posted: Wed Sep 23, 2009 7:49 am Post subject: Glenn Beck... |
 |
|
Still probing the innerwebs for audio... but here's an article from Salon.com that details an incident in the 80's where Glenn called the wife of a rival DJ who had a miscarriage and makes fun of him...
| Quote: | The animosity between Beck and Kelly continued to deepen. When Beck and Hattrick produced a local version of Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" for Halloween -- a recurring motif in Beck's life and career -- Kelly told a local reporter that the bit was a stupid rip-off of a syndicated gag. The slight outraged Beck, who got his revenge with what may rank as one of the cruelest bits in the history of morning radio. "A couple days after Kelly's wife, Terry, had a miscarriage, Beck called her live on the air and says, 'We hear you had a miscarriage,' " remembers Brad Miller, a former Y95 DJ and Clear Channel programmer. "When Terry said, 'Yes,' Beck proceeded to joke about how Bruce [Kelly] apparently can't do anything right -- about he can't even have a baby."

When his career unavoidably runs off the tracks, you can bet that it will be blamed on a vast left-wing conspiracy. The man is scum.

And all this from the same people who pitch a tent over single sentences uttered by current administration members from decades ago or written in academic papers...

You're right, it wasn't at all despicable for Glenn Beck to make fun of a woman who had a miscarriage. Why would any person in their right mind think otherwise?

That's really sick. Beck is nothing but a despicable & amoral media whore.
The frightening thing is that anyone listens to the garbage he spews and thinks there's even the slightest validity to it.

I don't know. Did they make fun of a woman who had a miscarriage on the radio? No? Then yes, he's different.

Well, Maddow was a Rhodes scholar. i think Beck failed kindergarten.
Be real. ALL television personalities are media whores to some extent. But Beck's willing to clown it up as the depraved millionaire loon of the right and say anything to get ratings. Meanwhile his listeners actually believe what he spews out, thinking he speaks for them.

Media whore can be said on radio & television without an FCC blink. Get over yourself, BB. Take a valium or something. Or an enema - given where your head apparently is, you could probably just gargle.

Alright, the "retarded" line has been crossed...
"Whore" is a perfectly acceptable word in this context.
It was ok when Amphi said it... it's ok when Blackballed said it... and it would be ok if Phony said it...
However, it would NOT be ok if, for instance, brant called dazes a whore... do we see the difference?
No? Then you need to turn in your sentient being card.
