Some hints:
- In 2005, he won a “Strongest Backbone” award from PETA for his support of animal rights.
- Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson once wrote, “I have, from the very beginning, admired [this person], who’s not even a writer. He knows how to use words. I read something the other day, and I totally disagreed with him. But you know, I was about to send him a note saying, ‘Good!’”
- He has a semi-regular MSNBC segment lovingly (?) named after him.
- He has been splashed with salad dressing for his controversial, outspoken beliefs.
- It’s not Glenn Beck.
