Huffington Post Offers $100,000 for Sex Tapes, Phone Records to Destroy Glenn Beck

In the wake of Glenn Beck's hugely successful Restoring Honor rally held in Washington, D.C. this weekend, the Huffington Post has published an offer of $100,000 to anyone with evidence that would destroy Beck's reputation and take him off the political/cultural battlefield.

An essay written by Beau Friedlander, the last editor-in-chief of Air America before it shut down this year, was posted in the Politics section of the Huffington Post today with the title, $100,000 For Glenn Beck's Sex Tape.

Friedlander says he will not use his own money for the hit, but that he will "broker" the deal.

It is time to pop the tea baggers' favorite balloon (so what if it will be replaced by another?), and with that in mind I hereby offer to negotiate a $100,000 payday to the person who will come forward with a sex tape or phone records or anything else that succeeds in removing Glenn Beck from the public eye forever. I am not offering the cash myself, but I will broker the deal and/or raise the money for what you bring to the table. (And it better be good.)

If you have the goods, or if you want to contribute to a slush fund to buy more takedowns (probably not tax deductible), please contact me at: glennbecksextape@gmail.com.

Friedlander couches his offer in the context of Andrew Breitbart's offer of $100,000 for the Journolist listserve messages, but this is more in line with pornographer Larry Flynt's blackmail campaign against Congressmen during Bill Clinton's impeachment, which followed a threat from Clinton conveyed by George Stephanopoulos to expose their sex lives.

Likewise, the Huffington Post has ties to the Obama White House, raising the question of whether the White House is behind this targeting of Beck.

Thanx, MizS, didn't know that. That might explain some of it.

“...it’d have to be pretty recent to do any damage....”

Even for congressional candidates a sex tape might just solve their name recognition problem and lead to a victory especially if the tape involved a human member of the opposite sex.

Hey Beau - you moron - what happened to Air America? (unfortunately HuffPo is a bit more successful)...

There were some old scandals posted “way back when”—true or false I don’t know, but it does occur to me that Ms. Huff-n-puff might have at least as much to hide than Glenn Beck. Sometimes when someone slings mud, a lot of it gets on them, too.

Of course the left can murder and rape, and walk unscathed by the communist, ministry of propaganda.

Lest we not forget, we are in a spiritual battle.

This is one more reason we must find and elect women and men with outstanding moral character - that can withstand such onslaughts.

The leftist idiots will kill themselves at the end of the day!

I think Beck ought to call for an investigation of the Huffington Post.

“How about Free Republic offering the same for gay sex tapes with 0bama?”

And let’s say it over, and over, and over again - whether it’s true or not...the equivalent of the lefty lies...

But beyond the moment - what the idiots on the left don’t realize - is that even if Beck were caught up in something like this - the Tea Party movement is not about a singular leader. They say ‘pop’ the biggest TP balloon, but all they’re doing is pushing down on a sturdy balloon with water in it - and the water will pop out elsewhere - they will not be able to stop or suppress the Truth - no matter what they’re attempts.

What the left HATES and what is different is that this time, finally, we’re fighting back!

Where precisely does the the Huffington Post come up with $100,000K for blackmail/extortion/slander?

Soros would take it out of the tip jar or his pocket.
