On April 12, the conservative Website WorldNetDaily published an expose on newly appointed White House green czar Van Jones that labeled the environmental activists a an admitted radical communist and black nationalist leader.
Based on readily available online sources, including an alternative weekly paper in Oakland, California, Aaron Kleins piece had a sensational titleWill a red help blacks go green?and a sensational spin. In the 2005 profile of Jones that Klein cited, reporter Eliza Strickland recalled Joness first year out of Yale Law School, working for the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights in the Bay Area, and how when he was observing the first large rally since the lifting of the citys state of emergency, he got swept up in mass arrests, then came to sympathize with the black radicals and communists whod been arrested with him, before leaving them behind to become an environmental activist. In Kleins hands, the story took on a different, more sinister tone: Jones said he first became radicalized in the wake of the 1992 Rodney King riots, during which time he was arrested.
Kleins story made some small waves online, but it wasnt picked up by the mainstream media until July 23. That was when Glenn Beck first told his Fox News audience about Jones. This is a guy who is a self-avowed communist, said Beck, and he is in the Obama administration this guy wasnt a radical, and then was arrested. He spent six months in jail, came out a communist.
Beck took a shot at the avowed communist Jones again on July 28, again on Aug. 4, again on Aug. 11 (this is a convicted felon, a guy who spent, I think, six months in prison after the Rodney King beating), again

Glenn Beck is an American Patriot and, so far, the only man with guts to expose domestic terrorists and enemies of freedom by name. The American people owe Glenn an enormous amount of gratitude. Pray that we have other patriots willing to expose the plot to destroy our country.
I so agree.
Who elected you the Pope of Conservatives with the power of excommunication and anathema?
Amen...GB has the fortitude to push this story when no one else would...need more info on this Apollo Alliance too. I read some articles archived on FR...Glenn did some good shows on how all the groups/people are tied together too.
We must also pray for his safety, and that of his family. There is nothing that tne minions of the Obamanation won’t do..
Glenn Beck has been added to my prayer list.

The truth!
I’m standing for the truth and against anti-conservative operatives who come to FR to attack over conservative sites.
WND is a good conservative site that reports and discusses all the things conservatives are interested in.
I'll take that as evidence that you are doing Obama's work for him by attacking conservative sites.
WND has a much better track record than The New York Times, the Washington Post, the New Republic, the Boston Globe and Slate.
You may remember Jayson Blair, Janet Cooke, Stephen Glass, Patricia Smith, and Jay Forman. If not you can Google them.
