What really gets me about Beck’s style is his aping of William F. Buckley. Leaning back in his chair, tie slightly askew, gesticulating and taking an inordinate amount of time to articulate his question.... that said, all that emotionalism makes me cringe.
Anyone else see it?
Hell yes...I see it.
He’s aping all of the so-called snobby intellectual newspaper elite. He has never mentioned Buckley. It’s mostly aimed at Joe Klein.
But FWIW, Buckley and Will fit the category as well.
