HERE/S SOME INSIDE BASEBALL: Beck got thrown out of Fox after
Beck held an event on the mall and acted and talked like he was MLK.
Roger Ailes went ballistic. Ailes would not countenance anybody
working for Fox to undermine the towering legacy of MLK.
That has a ring of truth to it. So Ailes couldn’t stand ‘reverend Beck’ either. Aping Martin Luther King? Great thought for losing weight. No wonder people around Glenn Beck can fast.
I hated it when Beck got preachy. It rubbed me the wrong way every time. I’m vague on the actual scripture, but it’s a sin to belittle someone who spreads the Good Word. But I felt called to make an exception in Reverend Beck’s case long before this primary. It felt right to do so, something I don’t recall ever doing before [unless there is a singer who puts too much ego and self-promotion into a religious song].
Another time Beck admitted that he hated ‘Silent Night’ until he found a female singer to jazz it up. I suspected that she was a fluzy from a night club. She ‘sexed up’ the song. The classic tune is magical and should never be so tainted.
Come to find out, my guess was correct. She was a night club singer.
That was another reason why I wondered about Glenn Beck.
