Glenn Beck Is Not Dying
Business Insider ^ | 10/13/2010 | Joe Pompeo

“I want you to know, I’m not dying,” Glenn Beck announced on his radio show this morning.

TVNewser reports via TheRightScoop that the Fox News Channel host has neither cancer nor multiple sclerosis nor lupus. But he does have nerve damage likely related to his past alcoholism.

Also, as some liberals may be secretly (or maybe even not so secretly) satisfied to learn, half of Beck's vocal chords are paralyzed at the moment.

“I had two MRIs, two CAT scans and then I was going into the PET scan, and they said, ‘We’ve read all of the others we don’t think you have cancer,” Beck told his listeners following a four-day stay at Utah's Huntsman Cancer Institute.

I figured he was going to Huntsman’s Clinic. They are good friends and he trusts them to give him good care.

Thank Goodness. Perhaps this could be a wake up call to those who feel that abusing alcohol is a cool thing to do.....not speaking of true alcoholics, but just those binge drinker folks.

I wonder how many doctors he went through who told him it was most likely alcoholic-induced peripheral neuropathy combined with just a tad of psychosomaticism before he convinced a cancer center to run every test in the book.

I really hope he paid cash, as it would be really hard to justify all the testing he underwent to any insurance company or government agency.

My hunch is that he is a bit of a hypocondriac.

You may feel a little out of place here, oh judgemental one. :)

If Beck took 1/10th the vacation that Obama does then he would be fine.

If you have tingling and numbness in your arms and fingers, nausea, weakness and find it difficult to speak, would you have time to write 3 New York Times Bestsellers, do 5 three hour radio segments every week, plus a tv news show every night?

Some Drama Queen.... Sheesh

From reading the threads, it seems like a valid question, is he an overwrought drama queen?

Great news! At first I thought Glenn found God, which isn’t all that uncommon in 12 step program. But now I’ve decided that God found Glenn. Wonder where he’s going to take us — other than to our polling places on 11/2 that is!

Seriously, glad to hear Glenn got some good news and thanks for posting.

I called this. Beck’s symptoms are consistent with ANXIETY....more anxiety more weird symptoms. More being convinced something must be wrong with you, more anxiety, more symptoms.

I beg to differ Glenn, all of us including you are dying.

That was my sense of the whole thing from the beginning as well.

Nope, and he's not an illiterate liar either, unlike some posters here.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
