Glen Beck promised to release information Monday if the administration didn't come clean about the Boston bombing.
Yup. And making them sweat for two days then exposing them with a whole week to grind down their subsequent lies is a strategy he has used successfully int he past. GB calls himself a rodeo clown ... he is somewhat of a drama queen, but he does fire for effect. And no one should discount his research team or the number of honest government workers who are watc hing this evil regime destroy America without real opposition due to a lack of factual data for expositions. So, these folks have a place to air what they can find and bring to GB for use. THAT is what the fourth estate was supposed to be about, once upon a time. Now, they are mostly the fifth column serving the enemy of We The People ... except this rodeo clown sin’t playing that game with them, and it scares the begeebers out of them that the truth might get out to the world before they can lock US down.
I disagree. It matters a lot in how a message is disseminated. If Beck doesn’t build an audience for his message, it doesn’t matter how damaging to America’s interests what he has to share if there’s nobody around to hear it.
I’d rather have 20 million people hear him, than two million, but for those 20 million people to hear him, he has to do what it takes to build that audience.
Is that your piece, or the hit piece, or what? And the link to your followup goes nowhere.
You didn’t read or see what he had to say, it’s obvious.
Your other snarky comments about ‘saving the world’ etc is just juvenile. Nowhere is that premise being set by Beck. Fail.
The setting the trap part is akin to Breitbart calling out Weiner, giving the little shrimp the opportunity to come clean - when he didn’t, he exposed him with evidence.
You’re not too good at the big picture are ya.
That was a story done by Enter Stage Right in 98 about the episode. I don’t know about the link. ORC changed hands after I left in 2000 so it may be gone off the new site.
In the 98 earth day issue, Time did a series of articles, one of which was a hit piece on myself by name and Off-Road,com for trasing the EnviroLink deal. It got coverage on Fox, CNN and a few newspapers at the time. Not the greatest feat in humanity, but you asked what I have done, so I showed you.
ESR has another article on it and gave me an award. Not that it matters. But it does point to the fact that I have done something noteworthy and effective in my life for the cause. Which is more than most have.
Indeed.
So has Beck. Let’s leave it at that.
If he comes out with something, great. But it does not change the fact that his existential info is apparently not SOOO terrible that it can’t be hidden a few days more.
REGARDLESS of the reason.
Cool, Norm!
My 15 min of fame ;)
More and more, though, he comes off as a shameless, self-promoter, who espouses conservative beliefs because it garners him attention and income.
If he has information that is important for the American people to know, he should spill it immediately instead of using it for ratings.
He's done crap like this so often, with no pay-off, that it's hard to believe anyone still listens to him.
What does he expect to gain by "threatening to expose" this information? Does anyone really think that those he is threatening even listen to anything he says, given his track record of promising without delivering?
So, in answer to the title of your thread, I say: let's see what Beck and his supporters, here and elsewhere, say on Monday when he comes up empty handed, again.
I think it’s “trust but verify” but you’re right... Glenn Beck and Alex Jones are just after ratings. They also frequently attack other. There’s no friends in the media business.
This is why I prefer less drama with some of the other hosts
See, you are like my wife. You don't read/listen to ALL the words and then take them in context. Now read it again, slowly, and THEN post.
This does involve people within agencies leaking information to him on Friday, who have no power to change what is happening in this traitorous administration.
Do you think he is considering their safety and at the same time releasing this information to ‘spook’ obama and gang that they are about to be exposed?
LOL yes sorry, i’ve just woken up.
If its all true, they contacted him. And as such, they are safer with the facts out in public. If no one knows who they are, retaliation against them is a lot easier isn’t it?
I know where a lot people are coming from. Glenn has overhyped his shows in the past. I never thought it was intentional. I think the info he collects alone are generally mind blowing and its more mindblowing is that very few in the media care and choose to ignore it. I think Glenn Beck is a workaholic on these issues at the same time he has to make more mundane shows just to stay on each day. He probably has good info for Monday, but like everything he has spoke about it will be collectively ignored as obama and the DNC’s evil agenda is further advanced.
Maybe we need more “rodeo clowns” on our side. The left has an infinite supply of them that has effectively spread their lies. However, our would spread the truth about current events and the Constitution.
I used to never miss Beck when he was on FOX. He was usually right on the money. It’s when he went off on whacked out Mormon nonsense that he lost me a time or two. It’s his one downfall as far as I’m concerned.
Problem is how many people subscribe to the Blaze? He had a much wider audience on FOX.
He is holding the information back until Monday for the same reason people are complaining about,they don’t take h I’m serious so he provided the information to all the major news organizations first,because people still consider them more credible than him,including Fox,THEY HAVE THE INFORMATION,HAVE YOU HEARD IT YET?
The least people can do is wait until tommorrow,judge then.
From what he has exposed about Obama,Van Jones,all their compatriots over the past 4 years,he deserves that.
