That was my reaction too, but on reflection, the organizations Glenn is talking about (Media Matters, Ctr for American Progress) are 501(c)(3)s. They masquerade as educational organizations.

Of course, we didnt need McCain Feingold to cause a proliferation of (c)(3) groups; the tax code is initiative enough.

Yeah, I caught that, too.
Having said that, Beck is doing God’s work and God’s work is very, very hard and filled with details subject to minor reporting errors so cut the guy some slack.
