Since you actually met him and appeared on his show, I’d be fascinated to hear your opinion on how he came to be like this from how he once appeared to be.
At one time, he appeared to be dead on right on so many things, then it became obvious that there was something seriously wrong.
I’d really like to know what you think.
Sometime in late 2010, with the big Tea Party rally in DC, Beck decided to do his own "Restore" rally. It was huge, but I remember thinking how it really screwed the TP people. Our rally fizzled, busses full of people canceled. I had gone there to sell books, and it was very sparse.
We met again in NYC when I approached him with a programming idea for the new TV network he was setting up. I got the brush off, but figured it was just due to the huge expense of the undertaking. He was already under the influence of David Barton, who began guest hosting his shows and shaping his content. Needless to say, Barton didn't have much of a place for me. The last time I was on his show, the "pre interview" clearly wanted me to state a bunch of historical "lessons" that were not true. I didn't play along ( a lot of kumbaya stuff, can't we all get along).
I got one more request to support his attempt to take the medals away from US cavalry troopers who fought at Wounded Knee. Again, I said the evidence wasn't clear that the cavalry was wrong. Some Indians had guns. Again, wrong answer. Haven't heard from him since.
