Conspiracy theorists find validation from Glenn Beck
By Dana Milbank
Sunday, October 10, 2010
Glenn Beck has a friend in California.
"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.
How can he be giving voice to the violent crazies when he's CONSTANTLY preaching non-violence?
Sounds like someone is trying to connect two puzzle pieces that just don't fit.

It's Hazlnut... he believes Media Matters... OH WAIT! He's using MM as the source.
It's MrV -- he doesn't even bother to read the OP or any post, so afraid it might shatter his world view.
Close your eyes and run...

Its call CYA. In a way its like the myth busters saying "dont try our stunts at home." It fixes liability issues.
Funny I didn't see you or Hazlnut getting this worked up about algore and Green Movement when that nutbag took on the Discovery channel....
OH THATS right, he was just plain crazy, this guy... obvious Beck-bot.
Glenn Beck uses just enough "facts" in his outlandish theories so that the dumb and ignorant will believe him. Most of the people who listen to Glenn Beck are country bumpkins who are still waiting for the commies to come.
