In the last few seconds of his show today, I heard some guy accuse Glenn Beck of being a "hometown murderer".

I don't listen to Glenn Beck that often, but it was pretty shocking, reinforced by how badly Glenn Beck fumbled is response. He seemed surprised and shocked also.

I thought: could it possibly be true?

When I got home, I googled "Glenn Beck Murder" and found a ton of links, all dated yesterday. Really horrible stuff. (I will omit the links, and the details, but you can find them yourself.) I was double shocked!

The story is that Glenn Beck is some sort of half-animal who raped and murdered a girl in 1990. There is a police report and everything.

IT IS ALL A HUGE FAKE

Buried deep in (what I believe to be) the root website is a simple statement saying that the website is for "political satire purposes only." So this is someone's horrific idea of a political statement.

Pretty disgusting. I don't know what to think.

I would think he would have at least sued for a retraction. He probably should comment on it anyway.( or under avisement of a lawyer) If he overreacts defensively, he might make it worse. Maybe it's best to ignore it. I dunno...........and don't really care much for Glenn Beck anyway.

The last time I saw him on the news, his personality seemed different.

It is probably just Keith Olbermann spreading vicious rumors from his bedroom in his parents basement. He can't stand that he is losing the ratings game in a bad way.

Saul Alinsky 101. It's the playbook. How can you not believe it after the last 7 months or so? It's blatant and disgusting.

Sounds like their answer to Becks proclamation that it doesnt matter "what they say about him" he'll keep presenting the facts.

Good comment Aleon.

At least this website (given ATS's top google rankings) will include a headline that makes it clear this is totally fake when the next sucker (like me) spends 20 minutes researching this.

So Glenn Beck is a murderer, it's the same as Obama being a muslim. Serves him right if you ask me. He can dish it out but can he take it?

One difference is one is true. My second point is even is Obama is not a muslim, thats a very different accusation than calling someone a murderer/rapist.

Wouldn't that be poetic justice if a month or two down the line the boards get flooded with "Beck's a murderer" conspiracy threads, falsified pictures of evidence, and completely made up testimony from blogs!

You'd have the same people who spammed the boards with Obama birth certificate, Muslim, anti-Christ, Communist, and Black power threads condemning the same tactics they've been using for the past year.

Man, the internet is great. Time to watch the fireworks!

Anyway, that seems to be the point of the rumor, to shove a mirror in certain people's faces and make them see how their tactics are silly.

It's true, if people posted it on other sites we could effectively keep it going for ages.

Pictures, Police reports...

Human and chicken DNA does not make for smart folks

IIRC Bush did the same thing every year.
Here's his 2002 Ramadan message:
(from the VOA)


President Bush's Ramadan Message

06-November-2002


I send greetings to Muslims in the United States and around the world as you observe the holy month of Ramadan.

Islam is a peace-loving faith that is practiced by more than one-billion people, including millions of American Muslims. These proud citizens contribute to the diversity that makes our country strong, and the United States is grateful for the friendship and support of many Muslim Nations that are vital partners in the global coalition to fight against terrorism.

The Qur'an teaches that Ramadan is a time for fasting, prayer, worship, and contemplation. Muslims observe this month by renewing their dedication to caring for those in need, doing good deeds, and strengthening family and community ties. These actions reflect many of the values that Muslims share with people of other faiths across our Nation and around the world, including courage, compassion, and service.

America remains committed to freedom, justice, and opportunity for all people. During this season of reverence and examination, we continue to work together for a future of peace, tolerance, and understanding.

Laura joins me in sending our best wishes for a blessed time. May you be well during Ramadan and throughout the coming year.

The White House Office of the Press Secretary November 5


So you're saying Bush was a stealth Muslim?!?


I should've known


Given how eagerly people around here embrace raw BS if it serves their political purposes, it shouldn't come as a surprise when their opponents start doing the same thing...

None of this changes the fact that Beck is a MURDERER!

HE killed that poor girl!

He's at least as much a murderer as Obama is a stealth Kenyan Muslim Communist planning a eugenics campaign


Obviously if someone says it on the internet, it must be true.

Wow...it's amazing to me that people can acually believe this kind of bull..
also amazing is that this story RECENTLY came out, oh..around the same time Glenn Beck was showing FACTS about Obama and his hired Maxist thugs, who have a job in the White House...
You might want to read this story and just who is behind this FALSE story..



A website called foxnewsboycott.com, whose primary purpose seems to be hustling overpriced merchandise demeaning Fox News, has posted a grotesque, fabricated quasi-news story headlined, "Glenn Beck Raped and Murdered a Girl in 1990?" Although the site offers the disclaimer: Note: This is satire/parody, but a valid example of the fallacious reasoning Beck is known for, one reader of a previous Glenn Beck article had the audacity - or the unimaginable naiveté - to try and pass the story off as factual.

This thread should NOW be closed....
