Fox News: Only Hope for America Would Be Nuked Cities

MurkN · 07-01-2009, 11:52 PM

This is insane. Pure treason. But understandable from a wingnut like Glenn Beck.

When tragedy and disaster strikes, people run to their TVs. Fox News pulled more than 10 million viewers on 9/11 and for a week or two after. They nearly hit those same ratings highs when Rupert Murdoch’s droogs fermented from fantasy into reality an unprovoked War On Iraq.

Imagine how many people would watch Fox News if American cities started getting blown apart by “major weapons”?

It’d be the mecca of ratings.

What an idiot

Outrageous. The Daily Show had a pretty accurate take on it.

I don't get the whole Glen Beck thing. The guy drips of saccharine and obviously says whatever it is he thinks you want to hear.

Who the hell is buying his books and tuning into that daily crap?

wow---

I am speechless.

I think America is better than that.

i AM A "righty" but beck is an idiot.

The dude is retarded, and i dont like him...

Just a natural extension of the "I hope our country fails under Obama" chorus we've been hearing from the right here and elsewhere.

I didn't hear Beck or the other guy say we need an attack. I heard that's what needs to happen to get Americans to demand our Government to protect them. But lets spin it, spin away...

Ratings are what the news is about, why do you think they are talking about MJ and any celebrity that dies unexpectedly for weeks? Ratings. CNN MSNBC and FOX all want tragedy.

These men understand the way, the truth and the light.

These men are firm believers in the way, the truth and the light.

So much so that they will go on television to proclaim the way, the truth and the light.

Then they say publically that the only way that America and the current administration will understand their gospel is if al Queda nukes America's cities.

Look! If I connect these dots, it makes a duck!

I was about to say the same thing, it didn't sound like beck was agreeing with him and heck it looks like they might have cut beck off before he finished what he was saying.

as a note I can't stand beck and have only watched half of one of his shows ever, because of that.

I can't believe Beck came over from CNN.
