Glenn Beck Blasts Conservative Critics as ‘Progressives on the Right’; Says Facebook Leans Left

Facebook deliberately promotes liberal Democrats and excludes and ridicules conservatives. Facebook employees have proof of this.

Glenn Beck falls all over himself defending Facebook and attacking conservatives.

I don't understand why FReepers admire Beck.

The Cruz hookup will forever be Beck's Battle of Midway.

His media empire was completely smashed by his insanity this year. His carriers are sunk, his battleships crippled. He pretty much lost the little respect he had.

The desperate Indiana effort was his Leyte Gulf.

Now it's just a matter of time until he waves the white flag and fade out of the business.

[CaptainK]

I’d like to know who still listens to his crazy radio show and subscribes to his equally crazy TV show.

He’s off the wall and has been for years.

Beck is decent at being a historian, but he sucks at everything else.

He thinks we need love... the time for “love” is long since past, we are in the age of wrath right now.

[Sasparilla]

I gave up on Beck when it became obvious that he believed anyone who questions his beliefs is a “progressive.”

Little Ralphie shot his eye out.

“Little Ralphie shot his eye out.”

LOL. Very good sir.

[ZULU]

Beck needs to be committed. He is a legend in his own mind.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Speaking of “Ralphy”, the actor was working on one of many of Beck’s ‘projects’ a while back, IIRC. Guess that tanked, too.

[Zathras]

Beck is trying to scam a gig or $$$ out of Facebook.
It is the only way out of the financial mess he is in.
Cruz was unbelievably stupid and naive to have anything to do with Beck.

Rubio ended his political future by friending Chucky.
Cruz probably ended his by listening to Beck.

Beck should conserve his spew for islam retards and other morons that think virgins and other delights await them at the end of their biological evil ways.

[Graybeard58]

I don’t understand why FReepers admire Beck.

You may be over estimating how many “admire” him.

[Fhios]

I think he’s talking about RINOs on the right.

[Wally_Kalbacken]

I don't think that Beck is smart enough to understand that whatever Zuckerberg said in their meeting, does not matter. Facebook, Google, and any of the other Internet gatekeepers and intermediaries can have their thumb on the scales in any number of ways, and you would not be able to see it. That is the real problem.

If it was just sharing photos of the grandkids, no problem, but social media has become the source of information for the broad swath of the public not curious enough to seek out information on their own. For those folks the subtle weighting of a search algorithm to lean this way or that way, can make a lot of difference. It's a serious problem and the Zuckerberg meeting did nothing to resolve it, no matter what Beck thinks.

[Nifster]

Glenn beck is clinically insane

[Nifster]

I don’t know anyone at FR who admires him

[detective]

“You may be over estimating how many “admire” him.”

Even if it is only a very few I don't understand it. I don't understand why anyone admires Beck.

I remember FReepers defending Beck when I criticized him in the past.

[Nifster]

He was referring to Tucker Carlson who slammed him for grove lung and sucking up to Zuckerberg
