Dear readers,

If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times or more --- how can a guy who does as much reporting on what's going on in the World of Soros miss this? How can a guy who claims to be able to piece disparate pieces together to see the big picture miss this? How can a guy who tells his viewers and listeners to "Question with Boldness" and seek the truth because "The Truth Has No Agenda" deliberately turn his back on what is so glaringly obvious to millions of us?

Dear Writer or Poster,

What is "this" that is "so glaringly obvious to millions of us"? Even if what's here is only an excerpt or snippet, you really do have to explain what your "this" is.

With regard to Beck, he's sort of an introvert in an extrovert's medium. He tends to turn inward, into himself, and brood. It's not that he's incapable of looking outward, to his audience, and forming what he thinks into mass entertainment. It's just that he can't keep that up day after day, so he returns to his own private preoccupations, rather than what will attract and hold an audience.

But what's true of him is also true of other people. The mass audience isn't going to share the preoccupations of political activists and enthusiasts. Things that a few people talk about with passion may sound strange or uninteresting to a mass public.

If you keep on about it, maybe Beck will notice, if he's still on the air by then, and feature your issue on his show, but you can't expect that he's going to pick up your own favorite topic immediately. A certain amount of steam has to build up before your issue attracts notice.

For those of us who discuss topics anonymously on the Internet there's no price to being wrong or irrelevant or obsessive. It's different for opiners or opinionators who are in the public eye.
