Cenk Uygur Celebrates End Of Glenn Beck With Fake Tears And Goodbye Montage

video
» 98 comments

For many for whom Glenn Beck was a program dedicated to misinformation and paranoia, today was a particularly good day. MSNBC’s Cenk Uygur couldn’t contain his glee at Glenn Beck wrapping up his final show today, dedicating to the former Fox News host a montage of controversial clips that “almost makes me tear up,” and discussing with guest Eric Boehlert how Media Matters explains their advertising boycott led to the end of the program.

For Uygur, Beck’s departure was a symbol of optimism for progressives everywhere. “We hope it brings an end to a crazy era,” he said, and cringed in faux-sadness. “It almost makes me tear up.” Uygur also argued that Beck’s departure was due to ratings, and that the ratings decline brought him “a sense of hope that maybe people aren’t that crazy.” He compared Beck’s rise and fall to the ephemeral presidential aspirations of Donald Trump, who “came and went” without much damage.”

After airing a montage featuring the comments he deemed most offensive from Beck’s tenure, Uygur invited Boehlert on, who himself was beaming about the news. Boehlert left no room for doubt that Beck’s departure was entirely the result of Media Matters’ boycott– “the most successful advertising boycott in the history of television.” The boycott, Boehlert explained, resulted in a decline in “his ratings and his relevance,” and attacks on Media Matters were not just on the organization, but on “the whole progressive community.” “He was very thin skin, and he knows what drove him off air,” Boehlert concludes.

    It is soooooo funny that these loon libs think Beck is done just because he won’t be on Fox. Yet these same nut jobs think Olbermann has made a comeback by being on another unwatched network. Funny how that works.

  • Jaurez

    How professional. News? I think not. More like Romper Room.

  • ChrisNH

    Eh.

    Sink Yogurt doesn’t have enough brain-power to conclude that this was a straight-up trade…Olbermann for Beck. Both will continue to toil for ‘their sides’ in comparable obscurity. But Sink Yogurt really will be wailing tears in 2012 when his beloved Obamo gets bludgeoned even more that he already has been. Now THAT will be terrific to see! Twist the little limp wrist and see how far we can take it.

    What is a “Cenk”? Is it a type of marsupial? Or maybe a type of plant from the mountains of Italy? I think we need a Congressional Investigation to find out what it is.

    Hey, President Barack Obama, let’s end the tax loophole for Media Matters.

  • Zandandido

    The boycott, Boehlert explained, resulted in a decline in “his ratings and his relevance.” I’m sorry that didn’t work. His ratings kicked the crap out of MSNBC’s, CNN’s ratings. And also I thought discrimination was bad?

  • felixw

    Of course MSNBC cries when a popular Fox host leaves. Most of MSNBC’s coverage is just envious sniping at Fox, so the fate of the MSNBC’s hosts is tied to what Ailes does at Fox. If a popular Fox host leaves, this could definitely hurt MSNBC’s ratings.

    I’m just gonna guess that MSNBC (or mediaite for that matter) never discuss MM’s hate fest against FNC, and how they get money from both Soros and tax payers just to go after FNC and to dig dirt and dumpster dive for info on fox personalities?

    MSNBC must be so proud to work hand in glove with the other haters and dumpster divers.

    COMCAST is so proud.

    Dan should tell his staff to stay away from the haters at MM, but…I think that is asking too much.

    Beck got more ratings in a half hour than Uygur got in a week.

    Frances Martel is not a journalis. In her story on the Beck family assault she left out key tweets made by danglingbaby and Marissa Barked, specifically the tweet where Barked not only tells danglingbaby to “spill somethingon him” but the more important “kick him (Beck) in the mouth”. Her words.
    Frances failed to disclose this extremely known fact to everyone who followed this story and especially to those who haven’t. Why? Why, to make Beck out to be a liar and to to make the violent liberal punks look like sweet oppressed victims. The truth doesn’t fit Frances or Mediaite’s narrative of Glenn Beck & his family being the victims of a violent drunken mob.
    Frances & Mediaite lost all credibility by purposely covering up essential facts to make Beck look bad.
    Pathetic.

    Organized boycotts are the tactic of the left. I’m more satisfied to let the natural forces of the market take their course. Really, as long as there’s a willingness for a network to sustain the low ratings, I’d rather have these loons remain on the air – provided that the network does so to find it’s role as a niche market and not for the purposes of propaganda. I was no fan of Olbermann, but the good he did for the conservative movement just by airing his hate probably gained the right more than one congressional seat. If more voices of this type stand as the reasonable argument for the progressive ideology, it can only serve a conservative revival in the long run.

    All U hosts of other shows must really hard up for comments or stories if all U can do is stick the knife into Beck and he has done nothing really to any of U. He might be leaving but he had the ppl with him for a very long time he was popular (and your all NOT) maybe your hoping your ratings will go up now? I liked Beck’s show I did’nt like the crying or the nonsense but U cant have everything in one person. I really think hes a good kind man and not out to hurt anyone. I felt sry for his wife and kids at the park watching a show,is this kind of treatment necessary? come on ppl hes out with his wife and kids.Ask yourself is your private life as good as his?? Do U have any ghosts in your closet? look out maybe the EQUIRE WILL GET U NEXT.

    Since when did ratings validate anything?! Do you like the song that is the top of the music charts?! Do you like the movie with the biggest gross last weekend?!

    This website couldn’t exist if news networks didn’t espouse opinion so blatantly. It isn’t quite the same here in England (although Rupert Murdoch is trying to get a controlling stake in Sky News), where opinion and news are quite clearly sectioned.

    I love America for its culture (except the guns, although I guess you don’t want us Brits swooping back over there and taxing your teabags), but I think the Right have a rather whining inferiority complex at the moment. Talking points won’t win an argument these days, and the Republican 2012 candidate field is a paltry bunch of wasters. As impartial as I am (shyeah, right!), I just don’t think the US right-wing are very appealing to moderates or undecideds.

    It is the inability to take a joke, or offer an even mildly witty retort to those whom they disagree with (especially without resorting to antiquated notions of homphobia, racism or bleating about their under-representation in spite of the apparent prevalence of their mindset) that renders them almost irrelevant in a global climate.

  • Jackpot777

    Uygur probably thinks he might finally get a ratings bump since Matthews’ program tanked against Beck’s program. Matthews’ program preceded Uygur’s program which was a weak lead-in for Uygur. Then again, Uygur’s program who could only be competitive against Wolf Blitzer will probably be at the bottom of the barrel with Matthews. Uygur should still be worried since since he hardly gets a mention on a rag like Meiaite.

    This is great strategy from Media Matters isn’t it? Openly gloating on air about “taking someone down”. That will help your case a lot when you’re having your tax-exempt status reviewed. Well theoretically if the hearing was carried out by unbiased people, oviously the hearing of the complaint will be arbitrated by far left goons (is there any one who isnt a far left goon working within 1500 miles of DC?)

    But seriously though if you can watch this video without squirming and feeling discomfort or hatred in the presence of these weird smug oily leftist crapwits, you should go see a doctor and check you have a pulse. Actually you should just go see a doctor anyway while you Americans still can.

They’re like a cute safety blanket for sheltered white suburban kids who are too scared to deal with the responsibilities and the realities of the problems in America so they tell themselves everything’s alright and fine because Obama said so and a blog said anyone suggests that Obama isn’t a magical omniscient unicorn is a “CORPORATE LYING MISINFORMER” or whatever. As long as they use plenty of words that have more than three syllables like “FEARMONGERER” and “MISINFORMATION” that’s all they need to feel edgy and smart.

    Insulting Deniro too?

    Cenk Uyugar? I think we are all collectively saying….WHO, or WHAT is that! Sounds like a venereal disease?

  • Swiss

    Cenk Uygur? Is that a typo…or a series of typos?

    Way to go Cenk! Good job dedicating some air time in a short segment that exposes Beck for the complete loser and total idiot that he is and always has been. That segment did an excellent job of summing up the very core and essence of Glenn Beck as he is nothing more than a complete coward who is simply a washed up dry mormon alcoholic who possesses absolutely no personal integrity. Beck’s only marketable products are hate, fear, lies, half truths and a complete re-writing of historical events as he is simply a half educated idiot who never went to college, knows nothing about American History, World History, American or World Economics, World Religions, Christianity or God. The stupid middle aged loser is nothing more than a product of the mormon cult who mixes parts of Catholicism with mormonism and is simply a mocking bird for the twisted views of others. He is even too stupid to realize that the religion of Islam has far more in common with the religion of Christianity than the mormon cult could ever hope for.

    I don’t bash Fox for being conservative at all.
    I bash and double down on Fox for lying about it.
    For the “Fair and Balanced” BS
    For the Fox and Friends,Hannity,Bolling, birther frenzy
    Terrorist fist bump,Death Panels…etc..
    And all the rest of their lies.
    I bash on Fox because they lie….get it?
    They goddamn lie every day dude….that’s why I bash on Fox.
    Cenk may be a progressive,but he doesn’t lie
    And like me,Cenk is sick and tired of the GOP and the GOPTV constant lies
    Goddamn sick of the BS man.
    I’m no hypocrite man,but Fox clearly are,they’re liars.
    That’s a fact.

    You just started this line of discussion by crediting Cenk for talking about politics. On a network that has devoted itself to politics. Politics aren’t so much a matter of facts, buddy, but spin. Your political views aren’t facts – they’re opinions.

    Good god, I hope you realize this.

    Cenk Uygar (I can barely spell his name) is a first-class dipshit! He talks about Beck accusing Obama of being a racist (Beck has since apologized for that) and has actually accused Beck of being an anti-Semite. Yeah, he really knows whereof he speaks. And that other a-hole is totally out to lunch too if he really thinks the progressive movement drove Beck off the air.

    Look I think it is fairly clear that the Majority of Americans don’t listen to Political talk radio. But of those who do, the majority are crazy, “conspiracy theorist”, Conservatives. The rest are sane logical Liberals. The problem is the insane out number the sane three to one. Obviously Conservative talk radio will win the ratings game, because there are more crazies out there than sane ones. Let me give you an example. Here’s a crazy one now…

    God, all this crap about “Fearmongering” is just the most inane pile pseudo-intellectualf crap ever designed to make single digit IQ idiots feel clever.

    Leftist pothead slacker who volunteered for obama in 2008: “Oh no dude you’re just FEARMONGERING”

    Yes because fear is never justified ever. Any time anyone says anything bad is coming, they’re just FEARMONGERINGGGGG!!!

    RIght? The evil corporations are just trying to keep us all so scared so we all just sit in our houses all day. Because that makes for such a vibrant economy. Right? Haha…
