Top television and radio host Glenn Beck said in an interview with Megyn Kelly on Fox News that he regrets some of his time at the cable network, when he hosted his own show, and admitted that he ratcheted rhetoric that helped drive a political wedge in America.
"I remember [my time on Fox] as an awful lot of fun and that I made an awful lot of mistakes," Mr. Beck said on Fox News on Tuesday night. "I think I played a role, unfortunately, in helping tear the country apart."
He also said if he could hit the rewind button, that he'd focus more on uniting, not dividing.
"I wish I could go back and be more uniting in my language," he said, Politico reported. "I didn't realize how really fragile the people were...
Mr. Beck's show ran on Fox News between 2009 and 2011...

Pat and Stu aren’t the worst. They’re just goofballs. The real problem is people like Will Cain and S.E. Cupp. They are toxic waste.
The average Joe who is NOT a news junkie (like me) is saying ‘Glen Who?”. Mr. Beck, you do a lot of charitable good, and you make a fantastic televised teacher of history and sociology, but you are no Moses. There was no parting of the seas, as you most ruefully elude to.
Funny, I don’t recall him dividing the country just reporting the facts.”
I really learned a lot I didn’t know the few times I watched his program. Seems to me like he was one of the few who was reporting the facts. Seems rather strange that he would be apologizing for sharing the truth. The entire scenario is rather eery.
Glen’s synopsis; ‘I’m a Lover, Not a Fighter!”
He will become a communist before this is all over. Beck is insane... I mean truly medically insane.
Glenn Beck Laments the ‘Biggest Language Coup in the History of the World’
Glenn Beck told his audience Wednesday that abortion has never been one of his primary political issues. It’s an extremely divisive topic, he said, and most of the time the conversation ends with people shouting phrases like “war on women.”
But, Beck said, because “both political parties have said that they plan to make abortion one of the main issues this election year,” and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo “has just made being pro-life a big reason for not being welcome in his state,” Beck said it’s time to talk about it.
“The biggest problem with this debate is that we, as conservatives, have lost [the argument],” Beck said. “We lost it the day we allowed abortion supporters to get away with the biggest language coup in the history of the world.”
He has already stated he “stands with GLAAD”. GLAAD being a front group for CPUSA.
Hey Beck is enlightened... he says we can compromise with communists, anarchists, satanists and terrorists. Kum Bah Yah baby!
Exactly. He was doing real reporting on stuff that no one else would touch. I don't understand why he's throwing dirt on that.

Rut roh. Did the regime get to him too?
My German mother often tells me to be careful of who you hate (or become immersed in knowledge of) because you soon become that which you hate. “When you dance with the devil, the devil don’t change. The devil changes you.”
I used to defend him against those charges... I apologize to all FReepers... I was wrong to do so.
Exactly. This guy is the Mormon Elmer Gantry.
He has become an arrogant dumbass. So much for an alternative to the left wing news. I will not give this idiot a penny.
I just get the impression that Beck is emotionally unstable.

By Jove, I think he’s got it!
I know... disgusting.
Anything particular, or just general fatigue?
Thats strange I just thought he was nuts
