More Journalistic Excellence From Glenn Beck

This guy never ceases to amaze me. Recently someone wrote that eventually he will say something so outlandish it will get him fired. I disagree with that statement completely. Tonight he responded to Keith Olbermann's assessment of the Beckster and out did himself by proposing to take nude photos of US Weekly's Dina Sansing during the interview.

When he posed the question to her the silence was deafening to say the least. She apparently did not find it funny that the wingnut wanted to take photos of her in the buff. I certainly wouldn't. Be sure to watch this short clip of Beck at his finest.

BECK: Dina, let me tell you something. I don`t think you have to be famous. I think you just work in the average environment in America now, somebody would get a picture of you, and then it would be posted all around, and it will happen in your office.

SANSING: Possibly.

BECK: You don`t think so?

SANSING: Well, it depends. You know, it depends…

BECK: Dina, I`ve got some time and a camera. Why don`t you stop by? No? OK.

Muslim Groups Protest '24'

From a fan website
Jack Bauer and the Fox network are at it again, pissing off segments of society for the benefit of their ratings. This isn't the first time that people have protested the stereotyping of Islamic groups on the hit show. Two years ago muslims were cast as nuclear warhead thieves planning on attacking the United States, though Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) saved the day.

The most recent episode did not have such a happy ending, where a nuclear bomb was detonated in Los Angeles, again by muslims. Some people may argue that the only people that would attack the United States are that segment of the population, but that would only show their ignorance of history and those that commit acts of terrorism. Not too long ago a man by the name of Timothy McVeigh blew up the Federal building in Oklahoma City, a few days ago Greek terrorists shot a rocket at the U.S. Embassy in Athens and terrorists around the world attack their adversaries no matter what religion they ascribe to.

CNN has more:

"The overwhelming impression you get is fear and hatred for Muslims," said Rabiah Ahmed, a spokeswoman for the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations. She said Thursday she was distressed by this season's premiere. "After watching that show, I was afraid to go to the grocery store because I wasn't sure the person next to me would be able to differentiate between fiction and reality."

She said the group had a conference call Wednesday with Fox executives to protest the current plot line and request more positive portrayals of Muslims on the show, but was not promised anything.

After a January 2005 meeting with CAIR, Fox aired a commercial in which the show's star, Kiefer Sutherland, urged viewers to keep in mind that the show's villains are not representative of all Muslims.

Well at least some action was taken, but not nearly enough. Perhaps we can see some 'American terrorists' being beaten up and tortured. You know torture is one of those moral values that we like to see acted on to protect the fair nation that we all live in. CAIR is correct on this issue. There has to be more done in this country to promote religious harmony, not the other way around. As one that has a few friends that are muslim and many that 'look Muslim' (i.e. having dark skin) have been harassed by fellow neighbor and officer of the law alike.

Glenn Beck and Oreo Cookies

I know Glenn Beck is a Grade-A schmuck, we all know this, even he probably knows it. Yet each time he opens that garbage-hole that is his mouth, each saying is still as offensive as every other audacious comment that he spews onto television screens that have CNN Headline News on. So what's the big deal about mentioning Oreo cookies? It's not the cookies he's talking about my friends.

CNN Transcript:

What happened to the Duke lacrosse team was practically a lynching without the rope. And for the first time in my life, Mr. Oreo Cookie without the chocolate on the outside can understand why people celebrated when O.J. Simpson was acquitted.....

Here's what I don't know. Will the leaders who rallied the troops against the Duke lacrosse team now take a stand and say lynching is bad, no matter what the color?......

BECK: You know, I am -- maybe it's just me. I just see this as a lynching. I mean, it really was a lynching without the -- without the rope. How often does that stuff happen?

Memo to Glenn, making racially charged comments like that is not funny. Maybe he does too many shows at the local KKK meetings or David Duke parties. Also, lynchings are not the same as examining rape cases Glennie boy and referencing the racial slur 'Oreo cookie' is completely unacceptable. Beck is absolutely disgusting and the networks (CNN and ABC) that carry him should be ashamed of themselves. My Two Sense reminds us what a lynching actually is.
