Bill Press: Beck a 'Ticking Time Bomb'; Warns Ailes Will 'Be Sorry' They Gave Him a Show
Newsbusters ^ | November 29, 2009 | Jeff Poor

Glenn Beck - he has one of the highest-rated shows on the top cable news network. He's had a number of bestselling books and he's called attention to some unsavory characters working in the Obama administration. Yet - he's somehow considered to be a risky business decision for the powers in charge at Fox News.

On CNN's Nov. 29 "Reliable Sources," host Howard Kurtz pointed out Glenn Beck accusing Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., of "hooking" for the so-called $300 million "Louisiana Purchase" provision of the health care bill.

"He's talking there about Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu, who did get a provision in order to get her support for breaking the filibuster on the health care bill - $300 million for Louisiana," Kurtz said. "He said she was ‘hooking,' basically called her a prostitute."

Bill Press is a douche bag for claiming Glen Beck is wrong to call a politician who takes $300 millions for a vote a whore. The only legitimate criticism would be that Glen Beck was unfair to working girls.

Eliot Spitzer called asking for her phone number.

What a great gag idea for Glen! He needs to answer the red phone--a call from the Spitzah asking for M'Landrieu's phone nummer.

Beck isn’t saying anything that we’re not thinking or saying

“”He said she was ‘hooking,’ basically called her a prostitute.”

To be accurate he should have called her " the most expensive $20.00 whore in history"

Bill Presses job title is groupthink mindguard.

He only says things only meant to stop group members from reconsidering their assumptions i.e. I wonder if I should watch Fox News?

By providing rational outs, the groupthinkers remain unconflicted with consensus views of the group no matter how dangerous or harmful.

Bill Press is a top of the line charlatan. He lies with remarkable ease.

Bill Press? Can’t believe anyone would be stupid enough to give this guy any credence, but then today’s left is so out of control, almost anything could happen.

Press is concerned with Beck because he has a voice, while Barry and company have power and only honor the top right blank corner of our Constitution these days, and he betrays us globally and at home at will.

Bill Press, the real life version of Rumpelstiltskin.

It was an insult: to whores. Whores only do one client at a time rather than a whole country and whores do it to someone who wants it.

The way Press is acting you would think Beck had made a movie about assassinating the president or something.

NO ... she was called a “HIGH PRICE PROSTITUTE”, also “THE MOST EXPENSIVE HOOKER IN DC” and and a few others that I can’t remember the PRECISE QUOTES.

Press is just JEALOUS he didn’t come up with the line.

basically called her a prostitute."

Considering what people did (not basically) call Bristol Palin, this is mild.

Yeah, Press’s most recent media project is described as a “talk-show/podcast,” which means it’s airing only on the web, and his audience is measured in the dozens. I also believe that Press lost his last “broadcast” talk show back in 2008. That was another low-rent affair; his syndicators tried to play up Press’s D.C. connections, but the show only aired in Akron, Ohio.

I’d say Mr. Press, who once fronted shows on CNN, is more than a tad jealous.
