The first thing I thought of when I listened to Beck’s monologue is Howard Beale in Network.

There was a much more important monologue in that movie...

and it’s just as relevant today...

“We’re in a lot of trouble!”

I can see that. There is a good bit of Howard Beale in Beck.

Howard’s nickname, recall, is “The Mad Prophet of the Airwaves.”
