Do you really think Beck does his own research?

That “his expose” brought down Van Jones?

Or was he just the mouthpiece?

No applause for him, sorry.

Do you really think it matters whether he has a team to do research or whether he does it himself? Do you really believe that the one who stands up and speaks, regardless of how he arrives at the information, is just a figurehead; even though it is he who garners all the hate and animosity?

Fine. Don’t applaud him. I doubt he’s troubled by it. Neither am I.

I would guess that his people do his research. His team under his direction. Then he chooses to use or not use what they come up with.

Yes, Glenn Beck’s expose’ did expose the self avowed commie ensconced in the affirmative action figure’s White HOuse, and the light made the cockroach scurry for Soros cover. I didn’t notice any of you obamanoid hemorrhoids exposing that Van Jones is straight out of the black nationalist radicals, that Van Jones founded the Apollo Alliance which brings together for power to change America the ‘social justice’ movement, the green movement, and the thuggish unions like SEIU and AFL-CIO, largely because you are of the same radical progressive, destroy America ilk, lying daily at FR with nothing but anti-everything and anything crap. You evidence that there really are enemies domestic.

I'm curious. Who do you think is moving his mouth? Murdoch perhaps?

Beck does not pretend to do his own research. He has said on his program that he has a staff of researchers.

It is easy to underestimate the role of the “salesman” which is what he basically is. A message, or information needs to be “sold” just like a product. This selling function is supremely important. I have seen many great ideas, but they remained unknown due to lack of a good salesman. Similarly, I have seen things like the “pet rock” rise to popularity. Same with singers and writers having an agent...many we never hear of are technically much better than the ones who leap to fame. To sell something is a talent and an integral part of all walks of life. Even in a job interview a person is in the process of salesmanship.

To have a product or information is one thing. To get the information “out there” is a whole different function and right now it is very much needed because the other side has been doing a GREAT job of selling their truly inferior ideas and presenting fiction as facts.
