I'm glad Keith pointed out that the ratings for BecKKK's show amounts to less than 1% of America's population and that quite possibly a large portion of that number are watching in anticipation of the inevitable 'trainwrecks'.

"Theodore Roosevelt, the man who looks like the mountain!" :rofl:

1. Keith is Always Funny!
Sometimes the best way to point out the idiocy of blowhards like Glenn BecKKK is to do it with humor.

3. when I wonder how such a dumbed-down tv pundit can exist,
I just remember what they elected to the presidency--twice.

9. Beck really makes me worry...
about the state of the American brain.

Is it fast food? Television? The after effects of two terms of the Bush administration? What is degrading the state of American intelligence so much that even one measly percent of the populace will listen to someone like Beck? He is so clearly deranged, unstable, and (no offense to stupid people) incredibly stupid.

Even in the last decade he would never have been let on television at all, let alone given his own show. Truly disturbing.

Smarten up, America.

11. Why do you think it is an American problem -
This is a gift from Australia - yes Fox is Murdoch....your welcome, we took away his citizenship because you guys had easier cross media ownership laws....

Well done, from 10,000 independant media outlets to less than 5 in less than ten years...awesome stuff Da,da,da,daaaaaaaaaaaaaaAmerica.

12. Oh, media concentration is not an American problem at all....
I agree entirely. Canada, for example, is terrible for that. There are many nations that struggle with these problems.

It is only Beck's supreme level of idiocy that inspired my comment.

Because he doesn't know how to "C".

15. Well classy to the point of being assertive rather than hostile. We should still make our point ...
strongly when needed rather than completely aggressively as some of the right have shown.

17. WOO-HOO! Face in the Crowd reference!
And he managed to pull off that "mythical homespun 'Aw, shucks!' TV totalitarian Lonesome Rhodes" TWICE?!?

Well done, Keith!

Incidentally, if you haven't seen A Face in the Crowd, I highly recommend it,
especially to any Andy Griffith fans in the audience!
Andy like you'd never see him again... *heh!*

18. I'm sure many people watch Beck
just to laugh. The scary ones (i.e. Palin) are the ones who take notes to remember to tell their friends.

19. Beck is deranged.
Some humor value, much greater danger.

21. Referral to 'Lonesome Rhodes' Glenn Beck
Is from a great Elia Kazan directed movie, A FACE IN THE CROWD, which stars an early Andy Griffeth - highly recommended flick about the media-military industrial (congressional)complex nexus.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Face_in_the_Crowd

All Duers should see this movie - available through netflix or other sources.
:hi:
