The metaphor, Beck said, was intended to draw attention to white Americans' neglect to understand the very real issues, like police brutality, facing black Americans on a daily basis. He repeated the "All Lives Matter" mantra in an NPR interview the following day, where he further urged all Americans "to start listening to each other and getting out of our own little labeled bubbles."
Beck's "labeled bubbles" theory may be ground in reality. A Pew Research Center survey released Monday finds "significant differences" in the way black and white adults use social media to share and interact with race-related content. A Pew analysis of 995 million tweets over a 15-month period - from January 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016 - reveals that events from Baltimore, to Charleston, South Carolina, to Dallas "often serve as a catalyst for social media conversations about race" that go beyond just hashtag activism.
The conservative backlash to Beck's new-found position was immediate. Leading sites, Breitbart News and The Drudge Report, lambasted Beck's comments, which were made just hours before riots in Milwaukee following the fatal shooting of Sylville K. Smith at the hands of police.

I’m sort of white, I guess. Injuns in both trees going way
back, as are many people - white and black. As long as
anyone practices The Golden Rule, things go better for them.
I don’t even know why he’s still on SXM radio. Shouldn’t his contract be about up?
there is equality among the races, blacks have the Ravrund Al Sharpton and whites have Preacher Glen Beck
You mean .000001 % of the black population. Most blacks go their entire lives without being hassled by the police even once.
As a white teenager growing up, all of us were constantly wary of the police and gave them wide berth. No one would ever try to be belligerent of a cop for any reason and invite arrest or worse.
.
Beck is so guilt ridden.
You see Becky, I don’t hide my drugs from my family, and I don’t run from scam to scam.
If you had an ounce of integrity, an ounce of decency, you’d be talking about the people out of work and the people getting ready to be.

Glen Beck suffers from mental problems. He can’t “grasp issues” when he has fallen into the abyss of his darkness. He really needs prayer and so I prayed for him.
Talk about being out of touch. Glen, I got a little news flash for you: Negroes aren't interested in "just listening." Their overrated brains are only interested now in killing whitey. Evidence Baltimore, Dallas, Milwaukee...Is there a pool on what city is next? Negroism and islam seem to have a lot in common (marxist funding for starters)./rant
Yes it is going down in flames.
He keeps this up he will either have too move to Russia and move in with Snowden or move the the Bolivian Consolidate in London and bunk with Assange.

If you haven’t seen it yet, BLM is pretty much a “french Revolution” style agitation

Did Soros prop up Glen and his failing empire with money?
Why the toadying up to BLM, a Soros tool?
Much less luck than your own civilized behavior.
I too think he needs help.
He’s one of the guys you expect to wake up one morning and find out he did himself in.
He seems manic to me, very high onw minute and very depressed the next.
I don’t wish the guy any harm. I think he’d benefit a lot by withdrawing from the public eye.
Beck needs to check his hatred of Trump. He doesn’t speak for me.
Pray America wakes
Beck’s next book: “Profiles in Lunacy”
He needs a strait jacket. He has become the Cindy Sheehan of Talk Radio.
I saw on an ad on Fox yesterday that Beck would be on O’Reilly explaining something about Trump. I knew it would be a hit job, and it sounded a bit wacko, so I turned the channel. I didn’t want to be a part of his insanity.
Trump’s proposals and policies are right on the money. That’s what matters. The ‘fake controversy’ folks are interested in Trump’s suntan and shirt size.
