Glenn Beck Launches GBTV By Comparing Himself To Walt Disney And Showing A George Soros Cartoon
7:00 – Beck has been comparing himself to Orson Welles for the last few minutes. This is going to require at least 10 fat jokes to cancel out.
7:30 – Beck is walking down a hallway covered in posters depicting the different companies he’s started. No matter what you feel about Beck, anyone’s gotta be jealous of someone who can do that.
8:40 – Um…Beck is now comparing himself to Walt Disney. 15 additional fat jokes.
9:00 – We’re now watching a montage of everyone in the company talking about how worried they are of the huge risk Beck is taking with the network.
10:50 – Ah, the new Beck studio! Exciting! Not finished yet apparently.
12:30 – Thank God there’s a chalkboard here. Too much change is not good.
13:37 – What did I say about change? For the past few minutes, Beck has been doing a monologue about Americans feeling powerless that could easily fit into any episode of his Fox News show. Big difference now? Beck’s wearing a casual looking shirt now that isn’t tucked in. He’s the boss now, guys. He can do what he wants.
14:50 – Beck on the media: “We no longer need the gatekeepers. That’s the way it is with YouTube.” “No one over 55 is using NetFlix. No one under 25 is using television.”
Guys, this is the same dude who I used to make fun of for sucking up to his elderly audience. What the hell happened? Seriously, get this guy a Tumblr and I will reblog him. For all his crazy predictions in the past, Beck really is seeing the future in a way that tons of people don’t want to here.
18:30 – The Blaze appears to be doing a nightly newscast on the network. And beck is talking up how you can use technology to watch it on a television. GBTV is really going after the big boys here.
20:50 – Beck: “Do we even have titles in this company?”
Just one of the folks, guys.
22:44 – Glenn Beck has George Washington’s compass. Why do people with their own companies always feel like they have to have little knick knacks like that on their desks? Is it for something to tell an inane story about while their thinking of what to say next in an argument?
24:27 – S.E. Cupp talking about how hard it is to be a conservative on a liberal college campus. Blah blah blah. Has she ever gotten into an argument about Oleanna on a first date?! “Yes, I understand that sexual harassment exists. I just think that it’s an interesting power switch. No, it’s not saying that all feminist groups are evil. Well, yeah, that part is kind of iffy. Look, why do I even date actresses? Oh, right. That’s why.”
Seriously, though, college conservatives, if you stopped wearing blazers on the inside cover of your college magazines with the cover story about how you’d be in an even better school if it weren’t for affirmative action, people would like you more.
