Conspiracy theorists find validation from Glenn Beck


"I would've never started watching Fox News if it wasn't for the fact that Beck was on there," says this friend, Byron Williams. "And it was the things he did, it was the things he exposed, that blew my mind."

"I do enjoy Glenn Beck," Williams also says, "and the reason why I enjoy that is because... no other channel will speak about the same things that he's talking about, and if you go and investigate those things you'll find out that they're true."

Unfortunately for Beck, this satisfied viewer currently resides at the Santa Rita Jail near Oakland and stands accused of a freeway shootout with police. Williams pleaded not guilty to four counts of attempted murder of a police officer. But according to court documents, he said he had been on a mission to kill people at the liberal Tides Foundation, which happens to be a favorite Beck target.

This isn't the only friend Beck has. Around my area (Pittsburgh) a gentle fired on Cops for fear they where coming to take his guns right after Obama was elected.

1. I think when Media Matters releases its full interview with

Williams on Monday, there should be a lot more coverage of this.

Probably the reason he's hiding right now.

2. Beck is hiding? Didn't know that. Is that why he attacked the Donald Duck thing

the way he did?

3. Mmm, don't know about the Donald Duck thing, but

he's been sending messages to his 'supporters' asking them to pray for him because he had an announcement to make. That was last week. The announcement came at the end of the week, which was that he has a tingling in his hands and feet and problems with his voice. So, he's taking some time off to get tested.

He's been rambling about being 'poisoned' by US, I mean liberals, I guess. Don't have the link right now but it was on DU a few days ago.

4. Say hi to DJ Jack Lucas, Glenn.

Jack Lucas (Jeff Bridges), a cynical, arrogant shock jock talk radio host, becomes suicidally despondent after his insensitive on-air comments inadvertently prompt a depressed caller to commit multiple murders at a popular Manhattan bar.

5. Average Fox viewer.

6. Um, no. They're not true.

The problem is not civility. The problem is stupidity.
