Glenn Beck Finally Admits He’s A Liar And Keith Olbermann Is Right

audio
» 154 comments

Glenn Beck lied and Keith Olbermann caught him last night. Today on the radio, Beck admitted it!

You see, he didn’t actually hold George Washington‘s first inaugural address. He just had it held in front of him.

At the Restoring Honor rally, during a nearly hour-long speech, Olbermann picked up on this line from Beck: “I went to the National Archives and I held the first inaugural written in his own hand by George Washington.” So he called the Archives and found out the truth. Beck, caught in his massive lie, came clean today.

> Update: Mother Jones initially broke the story about the National Archives here.

Instead of what he said in that 19-word sentence, this was what he should have said:

Yesterday I went to the National Archives, and they opened up the vault, and they put on their gloves and then they put it on a tray. They wheeled it over and it’s all in this hard plastic and you’re sitting down at a table and you can’t, because of Sandy Berger, I had a long conversation with him about this, you can’t actually touch any of the documents, these are very very rare. So what they do, they have it in this plastic thing and they hold them right in front of you, you can’t touch them but then you can say ‘can you turn it over,’ and then they turn it over for you and then you look at it. I thought it was a little clumsy to explain it that way.

Maybe just a little. But as Beck admits, “once again, they caught me.” Seriously though – this was the egregious lie that came out of the Restoring Honor speech, left-wing media? There has to be something better…

    You’re absolutely right, Steve. every “Restoring Honor” konklave should be filled with lies, big and small.

    THE INAUGURAL SPEECH – JUST ONE OF BECKERHEAD’S LIES,
    FROM LAST SATURDAY’S DIMWIT AND HERETIC RALLY,
    EXPOSED TO US ALL, THANKS TO THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES,
    SOON, WE’LL NEED A SPREAD SHEET FOR AN ACCURATE TALLY.

  • CosmosDan

    He could have said “As I gazed at it..” or something poetic, rather than claiming to have held it, but it’s pretty minor other than relating his pattern of things like this.

    Now if he’ll acknowledge his misquoting of Thomas Jefferson, we can move on.

  • Big_F-ing_Deal

    “I held it” “They held it” It’s hard to tell what Beck held except you can be sure he doesn’t “hold” the truth in high regard.

  • Patrick Henry

    “Beck, caught in his massive lie, came clean today.”

    Oh dear, it was MASSIVE!

    Lefties: You should quite while you’re behind. If this constitutes a “lie”, do you really want people combing through every sentence uttered by Olbermann or Mathews or Maddow or Crazy Larry or Obama or any other lefty? Yeah, I didn’t think so.

    What’s truly amazing is that the left actually cares so much about this. And to top it off, they were positively giddy about something as mundane and stupid as this. Have some self-respect, lefties. Your incredible jealousy is getting a wee-bit embarrassing. On second thought, keep it up. It’s fun watching you folks spiral out of control. I hope you’re enjoying the ride, cuz I sure am.

  • NORBIT

    Check out Beck – he’s documenting Obama’s tacit approval to Black Liberation Theology, through the words of Obama’s preachers & mentors!

    Democrats view people as TRIBES – very 5th Century thinking.

    Let’s take a poll- if I lose, I’ll cancel my account and never post here again. If you lose, do what you want as punishment, but if you were a man you would cancel and never post either. I will stand by the vote.

    Cast your vote – Who is the biggest hypocritical liar – GlennBeckreview or Glenn Beck ?

    I haven’t heard a lie this massive since my wife told me she just made lemonade. The truth was she poured water and lemonade mix toghether and stirred it around. I asked her why she didn’t just say, I just mixed water with lemonade mix that produced this refreshing drink? She said it was easier to just say she made lemonade, although we both know the mix was already made and the water came from the faucet.

    LOL, Beck got you again. Can you people hear or read? I know you don’t get it. He was laughing at Olbermann and you folks that said he didn’t hold it. Lets look at what Beck said………….

    So what they do, they have it in this plastic thing and they hold them right in front of you, you can’t touch them but then you can say ‘can you turn it over,’ and then they turn it over for you and then you look at it. I thought it was a little clumsy to explain it that way.

    You can’t read the sarasim? He got as close to holding it as anyone can. They hold it in front of you as thought you are holding it. Did you catch the part where he said “can you turn it over” and then they turn it over for you.

    The people calling this a lie just make themselves look like the fools they are. Hey how about that lie about the Washington Monument that was true?
    Do you people like making yourself look silly.

    Ted & the others are just pissed because they saw Steve’s headline and got an immediate (although tiny) erection, only to have their hopes & dreams shattered. hahahahahaha. Oooh, hey look, Glenn Beck, liar, ding!, text your buddies….errr, wait a minute. Steve is actually making fun of us.

    Nobody is saying it’s a big deal…what’s amazing is the defensiveness pouring out of those who hold Beck up as infallable.

    He admitted that he lied, just get over it.

    We’re just pointing out the obviousness that he is a showman…he overdramatizes and paints a different picture than reality to keep people tuned in. That’s all.

    When I heard about Beck holding the actual address I imagined him cradling a document sheethed in a lucite protective container. As it turns out he was presented the document, in such a case, but did not hold the actual case; the handlers maneuvered it for him as requested. I think this factual inaccuracy completely compromises the entire 8/28 event! Please, this is the big takeaway on the “LIE”?

    And all this talk about Beck lying with his Jefferson quote is a bit confusing, because the implication is that Glenn made up the quote out of whole cloth. In fact, if anything has taken place is “paraphrasing”, but I do not think what he did is even that far afield.

    > Beck’s alluded quote from his book:
    “‘And above all things,’ he wrote, ‘when it comes to religion, fix reason firmly in her seat and question everything. Take no man’s singular opinion. Question the very existence of God, for if there be a God, He must surely rather honest questioning over blindfolded fear.’”

    > Jefferson’s actual quote in his letter to Peter Carr:
    Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.

    Those two quotes are pretty much in line and carry the same meaning, and there is no altering of the message. So where is the criminality of prevarication on this?

  • CosmosDan

    Additionally, he makes that repeating pattern more disturbing when he gets in front of over 100,000 people and repeatedly proclaims the importance of being truthful, and telling the truth.

    It’s no problem if you see him as entertainment playing to fans. It can be one if you take him to seriously.

  • jk76

    Beck could have said it just as majestic about them holding it in front of them, but the Indian Jones skit as if he pulled the skull and out it popped and he held it, was theatrical. BUT that was the first time he has ever used theatrics. Of course he stretches the truth for emphasis. He should ask people what they think cause it could be a bad career road. I watch his TV show, not a fan of lies…but this is about as close as it gets as a “doesn’t matter” lie

    wonder if he took the forbidden subway

    I think the difference of “homage to reason” can mean something quite different than “honest questioning” It’s one thing to ask questions. Jefferson , in the actual quote, is suggesting what tools we use to answer them.
    as Beck encourages people to return to God to save our nation, we might consider another Jefferson quote;
    “May it be to the world, what I believe it will be, (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all) the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self-government.”

    Certainly some truth to that. It’s hard without reliable media to discern what the truth is and there’s not much Media out there I would call reliable. Of course some mainstream media was making it a point to trash Obama almost daily. I did my research and discovered they weren’t being very honest. I try to research several sources to figure out what’s true and what’s made up.

    It’s time to seriously look at the issues at hand and stop giving credence to those who distort the facts and create empty controversy for profit.

    I don’t care enough about Beck for him to drive me crazy. I am concerned that we have so few reliable and honest media outlets that give us pertinent facts about the important issues. I am concerned that repeated mangling of the facts seems so popular among many of my fellow citizens. When we need to come together and try to communicate honestly, too many people are being divided by dishonest fear mongers and resorting to hurling insults rather than decent communication. It seems lots of people would rather our media be more like the National Enquirer than actual journalism, and that results in us all losing out. It’s a dam shame.

    For all those who say those without sin cast the first stone: It wasn’t that he lied, it was that he lied around the same time he lectured to the crowd to “tell the truth”.

    Since we are going for such tight veracity, Olbermann could be told to square up his facts.

    “. . . His story that he actually got to hold it . . .” Glenn’s account was hardly a story about holding the document, his holding it was a brief portion of his larger story. Splitting words? Being too specific? Sure, but those are Olbermann’s standards, after all.

    The larger point in this is that Olbermann’s broadcast made it seem as if he and/or his staff had contacted the National Archives and ferreted out this truth themselves. He displayed a quote from Susan Cooper, spokesperson from the Nat. Archives, and it looks rather familiar. Ah, yes, those exact words — from that exact person, at that exact institution — appeared in an article from Mother Jones Magazine. No attribution from Mr. Olbermann, he claimed that information as his own! You are a LIAR Mr. Olbermann! (See how petty this gets?)

  • notsofast

    I agree you can parse it to get that meaning, no argument. But does that hold up to the larger charge that Glenn “lied”, to the extent that it means something completely different? I don’t see him altering the main thrust of the passage with this, or selling a completely different interpretation. That is what gets implied with the charge of him lying about this quote.

    In general I think the accusations of him lying are making a mountain out of a mole hill if we just look at what he said Saturday. It is petty.
    My larger concern is that I see as a regular pattern for Beck and that leads me to think it’s often intentional. The intent to distort the truth, while simultaneously extolling the virtues of honesty and imploring his fans to seek the truth, doesn’t speak well for his credibility.

    You can’t read the sarasim? He got as close to holding it as anyone can. They hold it in front of you as thought you are holding it. Did you catch the part where he said “can you turn it over” and then they turn it over for you.

    Shock Prediction: GOP to Take House, Maybe Senate in 2010 Election

    The Crystal Ball’s Labor Day Predictions
    Larry J. Sabato, Director, U.Va. Center for Politics September 2nd, 2010
    2010 was always going to be a Republican year, in the midterm tradition. It has simply been a question of degree. Several scenarios were possible, depending in large measure on whether, or how quickly, the deeply troubled American economy recovered from the Great Recession. Had Democratic hopes on economic revitalization materialized, it is easy to see how the party could have used its superior financial resources, combined with the tendency of Republicans in some districts and states to nominate ideological fringe candidates, to keep losses to the low 30s in the House and a handful in the Senate.
    But conditions have deteriorated badly for Democrats over the summer. The economy appears rotten, with little chance of a substantial comeback by November 2nd. Unemployment is very high, income growth sluggish, and public confidence quite low. The Democrats’ self-proclaimed “Recovery Summer” has become a term of derision, and to most voters—fair or not—it seems that President Obama has over-promised and under-delivered.
    Obama’s job approval ratings have drifted down well below 50% in most surveys. The generic ballot that asks likely voters whether they will cast ballots for Democrats or Republicans this year has moved increasingly in the GOP direction. While far less important, other controversies such as the mosque debate and immigration policy have made the climate worse for Democrats. Republican voters are raring to vote, their energy fueled by anti-Obama passion and concern over debt, spending, taxes, health care, and the size of government. Democrats are much less enthusiastic by almost every measure, and the Democratic base’s turnout will lag. Plus, Democrats have won over 50 House seats in 2006 and 2008, many of them in Republican territory, so their exposure to any sort of GOP wave is high.
    Given what we can see at this moment, Republicans have a good chance to win the House by picking up as many as 47 seats, net. This is a “net” number since the GOP will probably lose several of its own congressional districts in Delaware, Hawaii, and Louisiana. This estimate, which may be raised or lowered by Election Day, is based on a careful district-by-district analysis, plus electoral modeling based on trends in President Obama’s Gallup job approval rating and the Democratic-versus-Republican congressional generic ballot (discussed later in this essay). If anything, we have been conservative in estimating the probable GOP House gains, if the election were being held today.
    In the Senate, we now believe the GOP will do a bit better than our long-time prediction of +7 seats. Republicans have an outside shot at winning full control (+10), but are more likely to end up with +8 (or maybe +9, at which point it will be interesting to see how senators such as Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, and others react). GOP leaders themselves did not believe such a result was truly possible just a few months ago. If the Republican wave on November 2 is as large as some polls are suggesting it may be, then the surprise on election night could be a full GOP takeover. Since World War II, the House of Representatives has flipped parties on six occasions (1946, 1948, 1952, 1954, 1994, and 2006). Every time, the Senate flipped too, even when it had not been predicted to do so. These few examples do not create an iron law of politics, but they do suggest an electoral tendency.

  • felixw

    MSNBC loves playing gotcha with conservatives, no matter how small the stakes. If a Republican city council member in Pocatello misspelled a word in a blog, MSNBC would consider devoting a segment to it. But 17 million Americans are out of work, and you won’t hear a whisper about that form Keith Olbermann.

    This kind of meaningless carping is exactly what viewers have come to expect from MSNBC, and that’s why the network has lost half of its prime time audience over the last two years.

  • http://www.nukethefridge.com MartiniShark

    Recently I saw Olbermann come up with a dire error from Sarah Palin. She sent out a Twitter feed about this weekend’s rally, and it the message she used the designation “@Beck” to refer to Glenn. However, as Keith gleefully noted — lipless smirk etched on his mug — that particular entry represented a tag towards the musician Beck, not Glenn Beck himself! She sooooo STUPID!!!!!! THIS is what passes for significant political commentary in his febrile mind.

  • creeese

    Sure this is a small, meaningless lie, but if he’s able to so easily lie when it’s SO unnecessary, imagine what bigger lies he’s capable of telling. What makes this one extra funny is that he’s constantly going on and on about telling the truth. This reminds me of when he got caught lying on The View. That was equally hilarious because he totally got busted just like this time! Of course it’s unimportant, and of course it doesn’t matter, but it brings his character into question. If he feels the need to lie about such mundane details, how can anyone trust the big stuff? Also, if he feels the need to make his claims so much more colorful by flat-out lying, perhaps his entire persona is just an act.

    I don’t understand why he thinks his audience is so stupid that he thinks he can get away with lies that are so easily checkable. He clearly doesn’t think very highly of them.

    I agree with this comment. Like many prominent authors, Beck uses hyperbole to make a point. Like many prominent performers, he seeks to engage his audience through appeals to emotional symbols. It is not really “lying” — it is calculated exaggeration to present a point of view. It is no different than when our Presidents address Congress or make campaign speeches which fib about what our founding fathers thought or believed because they want to bring us into their conversation and inspire us to become our better selves.

    Jefferson wrote that he (God) must “more approve the homage of reason” than blind fear. Jefferson was not speaking of honest questioning at all.

    It’s not an “egregious” lie, as you claim. And trying to be sarcastic doesn’t change the fact: it is a lie. Beck stated as fact that he held the document in his hands, lying to amplify the the emotional significance of the moment.

    Well Mother Jones, what he should have said was simply he looked at it or he saw it. Beck was right that there was no need to go into that long explanation of seeing the document. This isn’t making a mountain out of a molehill, it’s making a mountain out of flat land.

    Is anyone suprised?

  • http://www.nukethefridge.com MartiniShark

    So what is the takeaway from this? Does this ebellishment from a much larger story derail the entire 8/28 event? I ask because as Olbermann reported this story he did so using information actually gleaned by Mother Jones magazine. While using quotes and information on this story he never attributed it came from them, deceiving everyone into thinking he did the work himself. That appears to be a greater level of deceit, so will everyone outraged by this stop watching Olbermann as well?

    That is doubtful. The day before, in the comments on the story Olbermann originally broadcast, many of the posters who were enraged at Beck’s lie were at the same time defending the falsehood from Olbermann’s mouth that he went to an Ivy League school.

    Keith Olberman and the loons on the left will do anything to be able to attack or criticize anything that Glenn Beck does. Even something as magnificent as the 8-28 RESTORING HONOR RALLY; that probably attracted more of an audience in that one day than Olberman gets in a month.

    IF this is all they have to attack Glenn Beck with, then, in reality, they have nothing; and would be better advised to step away from their cardboard news desk and turn on the FOX News Channel and watch Glenn Beck to learn how it’s done.

    Honor Mr. Beck? Honor? Beck doesn’t know the first damn thing about honor.

    Glenn Beck Review, does your mommie know that you’re using her computer for more than seeing porn pictures of her on the night that you were conceived?

    Perhaps if Daddy (whoever that might actually be) wouldn’t have been to cheap to buy Mommie 3 more drinks, you would have been consumed, instead of conceived.

    And as far as your brain deficiency goes, “GBR”, I’m told that they warned your mommy not to do heroine and crack cocaine, at the same time that she was pregnant with you.

    Good luck on a theraputic recovery.

    Telling Glenn Beck Review that his need to be an asshole is staggering.

    Not So Fast, I agree with you on this one; but in defense of the moron known as Glenn Beck Review goes, you really can’t blame him, as his bathtub toys were a hair dryer and a plug in radio/alarm clock.

    They say that “GBR” possibly might regain normal brain function by 2012, when we get a real president; after the presidential impostor is impeached, and tried and convicted of high treason against the United States.

    Thank God for Olbermann, otherwise, we wouldn’t have a firm grasp of just what pettiness is!

    Being a liar is what Beck does best. The tea baggers want to hear it, he gives it! Was this lie a big deal, not really! However, he does the same thing over and over. This is not just grammar! He wants you to believe these statements, in this case, it makes him more of a connected, in touch holy leader. Silly sure, but it is Beck who comes up with this crap. Beck is the worst of the right wing fear salesperson Fox has. Fox and Fiends will lie, but not all the time on that show. They are 100% on the bias side and they do spin everything negative, but, other networks do a little of the same. Remember when the news was just reported, just the facts!. Unlike Fox and Fiends reporting the unemployment numbers going down as a bad thing! They were at it again with showing funny political ads,(more free airtime for the right) maybe just maybe 1 out of 10 won’t be a right wing, endorsement. Fair and balanced, as Sister Sara says ” you bet ya”

    Misdirection #1: Use the word “held” to create the impression that he literally held the document

    Misdirection #2: Continue to use the “hold” idea in order to obfuscate the real issue (“it wasn’t me who held it, but explaining that would have been too complicated”; why didn’t you just say “I saw it” in the first place?)

    Misdirection #3: By asserting that this episode is the most egregious example found of his lying, downplay and dodge hundreds of well-documented cases of serious deception on his part

  • liquidassets

    John Frum, you said exactly what I was thinking, agree on all 3 points. Contrary to popular opinion, Beck is actually only about 1/4 crazy as a loon, the other 3/4 is crazy like a fox, and this is a good example. His cult followers, however, are mostly just frightened and loony. I won’t be checking back to this thread because too many “Beckies” (similar to Moonies) but just wanted to tell you I agreed.

    glenn113 says: “Is anyone suprised?”

    Glenn, his flock is still denying that Beck lied in this speech at all! He screwed the pooch three times in that speech:

    Read the comments. I think one guy with all the documents is on Beck’s paid staff.

    Steve wrote, “Seriously though – this was the egregious lie that came out of the Restoring Honor speech, left-wing media? There has to be something better…”

    Steve, it’s not how “egregious” the lies were in this speech (there were three at least); it is that they all come after Beck said, “Our sacred honor. It means that you tell the truth. The whole truth and nothing but the truth.”

    This is about hypocrisy, something Beck exhibits far too often for someone who is supposed to have values and principles. His misquote of Jefferson hides what the founding father would have been critical of Beck about were he alive today: Beck’s blind fear-mongering and faith driven politics.

  • busbus

    I don’t care how Beck spins this, HE LIED! Simply put, HE LIED! He can laugh about being caught; but, HE LIED. I questioned him holding the document because I have had a VIP tour of the Archives and have seen this document and KNOW that with gloves or no gloves, the document could not be held except by an archivist.

    GLENN BECK LIED! It may have been a little lie; but, it should lead us all to question much of what he says!

  • http://sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com/ GlennBeckReview

    busbus, it’s not just that he lied; that’s obvious. It that he lied during THAT speech in THAT location to a nation-wide audience AFTER first saying, “Our sacred honor. It means that you tell the truth. The whole truth and nothing but the truth.”

    That Beck is a liar everyone with a basic understanding of current events can readily hear and grasp. The ethical undermining Beck does to himself is his HYPOCRISY!

    Since April, Beck has expressed hypocrisy about the Constitution, truth (over and over again), free speech, talking about the President’s family, quoting out of context, accusing others of quoting out of context, abusing references to Nazism, cuts in education, divisiveness and name calling. For his emotionally blinded supporters, 10 examples of hypocrisy do not undermine his character or honor. The gall to have them tell Beck’s detractors to “wake up” is stunning.

    Please, share this URL: http://www.sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com Warn others before one of Beck’s minions invites your parents to watch his propaganda.

    Thank you.

    See, there’s the difference between you and me, dummy. I admitted that I’d used a word inappropriately, and I even thanked you for pointing out my mistake. You, however, continue trying to avoid the subject of the article, and assume things you cannot prove, simply because I made a comment about the snake-oil salesman Beck and his idiotic cheerleaders.And, that’s just dumb…but completely expected from a dummy such as yourself.

    Hugo Dummy, when I pointed out your obvious stupid remark, you called me a dummy. Your already non-existant credibilty has sunk into the depths of raging Kool-aid libtard, but then you (and everybody else) already knew that, didn’t you dummy? Go crawl back under your toadstool, dummy.
