Wow. Eloquent broadside against Glen Beck, Murdoch & Fox from Brit MP

[cali]

Here's some of what he said:

<snip>

If Glenn Beck were here today I would say to him: "Glenn Beck, you are a bigot. You bring shame to your country, not because you lack balance, but because you are an unthinking buffoon. Rupert Murdoch tolerates you because you are his useful idiot. He uses you to get a foothold in the doors of the powerful. Like his phone-hacking journalists and his pugnacious leader-writers in Australia, you are expendable. Let us hope he disposes of your nasty brand of intolerance sooner rather than later."

It is Rupert and James Murdoch who should answer for bigots such as Glenn Beck and phone hackers such as Clive Goodman and Glen Mulcaire. They employ them. They promote them. They are responsible for them. It is time for thinking citizens in the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia to unite against the Murdochs' vicious brand of politics that masquerades as publishing.

2. Very well said! So sad it has to come from Britain instead of right here at home!

3. When Americans try to counter the Right Wing extremists,

they fear being branded by the "main stream" media as "Leff Wing extremists", so most of the time they just shut up.
