3 conservatives and 1 liberal. For plenty of years Alan Colmes got “flack” for being a token liberal on Fox News – well, today his role has been reduced to its pure essence: a token liberal. He never even got the weekend show that was supposedly under works.

I ask the same question of FOX “News” and the Beckerhead almost every day.

Hilarious. Fox News gives Glenn Beck, Patient Zero for an Epidemic of Stupid, a platform. That mote in Fox’s eye isn’t a log, it’s a whole damn forest.

I guess the business of broadcasting is beyond your pay scale. Glenn Beck has the ratings to give him job security. Rich Sanchez had ratings that screamed out “Fire me!”

CNN should give Rick Sanchez his job back. The only person that doesn’t make a mistake is a person that never does anything. He is young energetic, intelligent and humble in all the viewings I have seen. He has a lot of miles left on him and I’m sure he will get better with age. His qualities are honesty, sincerity, he also has go power, and did I mention he has a lot of miles left on him. CNN, think about it. I don’t think Fox likes him that is another reason he must be a keeper.

Alan Colmes is a nice guy, he is also a Fox News Shill. He would nave not trouble getting a job in Las Vegas.God bless his heart. He should find a job with a future.

What took so long? With so few viewers, CNN had to wait until at least two complaints flooded in.

I wonder if other poster’s would agree, there is a back story to his firing that is beyond Rick stating “it was on me.” It is important to take responsibility.

Rick has issues to resolve, and now other network exec’s know this, and I am sure for the short term will stay clear. I imagine, if he feel’s that his ethnicity is not on prime time, perhaps he should go back to his roots, I believe Florida, and excel in a community that I imagine would welcome him with open arms.

BTW, when he says other ethnicity aren’t broadcasting in prime time, I get it, but there is only so many slots, and usually folks earn their job through hard work. AHEM, Rick, I am sure when you were offered your 2 hour show, you earned it. When you filled in after Brown left, the exec’s thought you would excel. Pretty much the way most American’s excel at their jobs and gain promotion’s.

When given this opportunity, he changed format, add libed frankly did his own thing. Perhaps the news requires more structure.

So, I end where I begin, there must be more to the story. Also who wants to learn of their firing when the rest of the world learns of it, I thought CNN was better than that.

With inflation, 12 cents worth, Ft Leavenworth, KS. (yikes Utes down by 4 but it IS the first quarter)

Here is what George Soros’ Media Matters says about Judith Miller;

“”Miller is trotted out as the token liberal on some panels”"

So that is 2 LIBERALS, 2 Conservatives.

The Real Royal King said:

Once again there are TWO LIBERALS and two Conservatives on the panel.

Media Matters wrote about Judith Miller, who used to work at the NY Times;

“Miller is trotted out as the token liberal on some panels”

So once again Liberals are too stupid to realize that Miller is a Liberal also besides Combs.

Judith Miller took simpering lessons from Ann Curry .

Sure why not when Glenn Beck and company take up 99.9% of your whining.

American Jews make up only 2% of the population of America. Yet: 46% make over $100,000 per year, they make up 15% of the U.S. Senate, 13% of the U.S. House of Representatives, 67% of members of the Board of the Federal reserve, 33% of the U.S. Supreme Court. Media: Just taking CNN only, 55% of corporate officers for TBS, which owns CNN, are Jewish. On air, Larry King, John King, Howard Kurtz, Eliot Slpitzer, Jeffrey Toobin, Paula Zahn, etc.. Rick Sanchez has nothing to apologize for

A thoroughly disgusting comment. Will you ever stop the filth?

The question that they didn’t raise and should have is why Sanchez got fired for his stupidity and Glenn Beck does not (unless he’s not getting medical tests this week and that’s just a cover for having been fired from Fox) get fired for his far greater stupidity.

No one ever called Sanchez’s comments “completely insane” or called Sanchez himself deranged.

Empty calories, ratings with low income. In GB, it’s ratings and NO income.

Beck has other issues. Fox is beginning to worry about their brand with a crazy-con like Beck wrecking havoc on rationality.
http://www.sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com/2010/10/paul-waldman-what-beck-says-is.html

Finally, I haven’t posted about this, but he’s also frequently promoting his personal media empire on Fox. That’s a conflict of interest. On a genuine news network, Beck would have been tossed long ago; on Fox, Beck is a useful tool.

Your first link comparing Beck and Sanchez is way off the mark. Sanchez’s remark about Stewart and his bosses at CNN were off the cuff and without context. When Beck said Obama was racist, it was in the context of discussing Obama’s “teachable moment” on the Cambridge incident. Obama was careless is when he said the Cambridge police “acted stupidly” when he even admitted he did not have any facts. And when Obama was asked about it in a presser about health care, he went on an off topic rant about race. Obama felt the need to justify his knee jerk reaction by being professorial about the incident. On the Gates incident, Obama was both bigoted and prejudicial.

The statement in in bold red letters “Before more people start swallowing Beck’s misinformation,
please get involved” is so dishonest. Beck constantly tells his viewers no to take what he says as the truth. He tells his viewers to research the topics he brings up and for the viewer to come up with their own truth. Beck just provides the key words or phrases to do that research.

Sanchez, on the other hand, presents his news with authority with no caveats. You would never hear host like Olbermann or Maddow tell their viewers to look it up.

Your second link is just as dishonest as the first. It features an interview with writer Paul Waldham who found a soapbox on Keith Olbermann’s program. Olbermann and Waldman appear to have their own mini Glenn Beck hatefest. The telling thing about the interview, neither Olbermann nor Waldham ever challenge the audience to look up what they say is true. To dismiss Glenn Beck as being part of the lunatic fringe is just plain lazy and panders to the (as Rush Limbaugh like to say) mind numb robots. It goes with the Progressive mindset that facts just get in the way.

What Obama said was that he didn’t have ALL the facts, and the cop did act stupidly. They knew the professor lived in that home and arrested him anyway. That’s pretty stupid. No, Beck was talking about Obama hating white culture, remember? That comment has lead to nearly 300 companies not advertising on his show. Teachable moment indeed.

“And when Obama was asked about it in a presser about health care, he went on an off topic rant about race. Obama felt the need to justify his knee jerk reaction by being professorial about the incident. On the Gates incident, Obama was both bigoted and prejudicial.”

No, Gates is Obama’s friend. That’s what he acted like, a friend. Hard for you to see that, isn’t it?

His viewers must not do that. If they truly investigated his claims, they’s see that they’re wrong as often as they’re right. That’s why he was awarded the Misinformer of the year last year, not by me. Beck blends fact and fiction to create an overall false narrative. Beck is telling his minions to get others involved in his reactionary noise and movement, so my desire to reach others first to warn them of Beck’s systematic dishonesty is hardly “dishonest.”

Well, your quoting of a reactionary liar like Rush Limbaugh, who’s a racist reactionary, tells us enough about you. Look, being critical of someone is not being hateful or having a “hatefest,” what ever that is. Beck is a follower of the late Cleon Skousen, author of the 5,000 Year Leap. Skousen’s writings have been deemed as extremist even by his own church, the Mormons. When the Mormons deem something extremist, that’s pretty extreme. I have never dismissed Beck as part of the lunatic fringe; he’s the front man of the reactionary backlash against Obama. When Beck says that we should operate our 21st Century economy based on 19th Century rules, that’s pretty extremist. For more on Skousen’s influence on the uneducated Beck, see: http://www.sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com/2010/06/man-who-changed-glenn-becks-life.html

I like Fox News Watch and no other net or cable outlet has anything like it except the poor imitation on Howard Kurtz’s show, i think on CNN. Kurtz came to our house a decade ago during a DC scandal before he became a media guru and impressed me personally as a mensch. On the other hand, his show is boring, which Fox NEWS is not. I also met Miller during my career and she is certainly “simpering,” as noted above. Colmes is never going to get a show of his own because, well, he’s such a stupid schmuck. Glenn Beck, whom I can only take in small doses because of his emo edge, is far better than any of the libturds like Olbermann and the insufferable man-child Maddow.

Didn’t you know being a President requires a person to be above personal friendships? Liberals tout that Obama graduated Harvard Law School and that he was president of the Harvard Law Review. Aren’t lawyers suppose to be objective? If he was as good as people would like us think he was, he should had refrain from commenting on the incident since the press conference he had his Presidential hat on. He was speaking as a leader (though debatable) not as a friend.

My comment on the statement in bold red letters “Before more people start swallowing Beck’s misinformation,
please get involved” was answered with your retort “His viewers must not do that.” How do you know? Do you investigate the subjects Beck brings up in his show? You say he was named “Misinformer of the Year” and say it wasn’t by you, but you didn’t cite who gave him that title.

You fit Rush Limbaugh’s definition of a “mind numb robot” to a ‘T’. You call yourself a reviewer when in fact you could not review a first grader’s book on “John and Jane” with a modicum of intelligence.

Glenn Beck tells his viewers to think therefore you don’t.

Requires or expects? Suppose you cite where in the Constitution it says that the President is to be above personal friendships. You do know that no one is “objective,” that people try to approach that goal. Finally, arresting someone for being in their own home after proving that he was in his own him is “acting pretty stupidly” from an objective perspective. THAT had nothing to do with race, but that didn’t stop Beck from ignorantly declaring such. He has since admitted his ignorance, but has never apologized for it.

This is a good example of your kookiness; it makes no sense. I have a tip for you, don’t go into philosophy. One more tip: finish high school. Here’s a lecture that will give you insight that you seem to lack…if your attention span holds up:
http://www.duhc.org/video/we-the-corporations

Most of us are mentally trapped to think Jewish. Actually, it is safe to say that virtually every mainstream publication or or other type of media organ is “nothing more than a screen to present chosen views.” The great battle over the last century has been a battle for the mind of the Western peoples, i.e., non-Jewish Euros. The chosen won it by acquiring control over essentially the complete mainstream news, information, education and entertainment media of every type, and using that control to infuse and disseminate their message, agenda and worldview, their way of thinking, or rather the way they want us to think. Since at least the 1960s this campaign has been effectively complete. Since then they have shaped and controlled the minds of all but a seeming few of us in varying degree with almost no opposition or competition from any alternative worldview. So now most of us are mentally trapped in the box the chosen have made for us, which we have lived in all our lives. Only a few have managed to avoid it or escape it, or to even sometimes see outside of it, and so actually “think outside of the (Jewish) box.”

What happened to Oliver Stone is a good case study. The Wall Street Journal reported this past summer that Stone said that “public opinion was focused on the Holocaust because of ‘Jewish domination of the media.’” Stone also said that the Jews “stay on top of every comment, the most powerful lobby in Washington. Israel has f—– up United States foreign policy for years.”

Like so many others before him, Stone groveled: “In trying to make a broader historical point about the range of atrocities the Germans committed against many people, I made a clumsy association about the Holocaust, for which I am sorry and I regret. Jews obviously do not control media or any other industry.”

Joe Sobran who died this past week had this to say about Jewish media power:

“Jewish control of the major media in the media age makes the enforced silence both paradoxical and paralyzing. Survival in public life requires that you know all about it, but never refer to it. A hypocritical etiquette forces us to pretend that the Jews are powerless victims; and if you don’t respect their victimhood, they’ll destroy you. It’s a phenomenal display not of wickedness, really, but of fierce ethnocentrism, a sort of furtive racial superpatriotism.”

In 1996, reprinted in the May 27th issue of the New York Times, by Ari Shavit, an Israeli columnist describing his feelings on the killings of a hundred civilians in a military skirmish in southern Lebanon. Shavit wrote:

“We killed them out of a certain naive hubris. Believing with absolute certitude that now, with the White House, the Senate, and much of the American media in our hands, the lives of others do not count as much as our own.”

Peace.

PS: An antisemite condemns people for being Jews, I am not an antisemite.

Obama commented on the Gates incident at the end of a presser on health care. Obama acted stupidly. If Obama isn’t a racist, can you explain why the racial divide in this country is at an all time gap? Obama’s defending of Gates is similar to the jury at OJ Simpson trial.

Your question that asks “Suppose you cite where in the Constitution it says that the President is to be above personal friendships.” That is such a juvenile question to ask. You’re implying the President should bring his biases when addressing the American people. You’re making the argument Obama is a divider.

You said Media Matters has awarded Beck “Misinformer of the Year”. Citing Media Matters as a credible source says you are beyond idiocy.

Where did you graduate from? Mickey D’s University?

I guess you are what happens when a person uses a Nintendo as a learning aid.

VRWC Ignorant Destruction Machine says: “Obama commented on the Gates incident at the end of a presser on health care. Obama acted stupidly. If Obama isn’t a racist, can you explain why the racial divide in this country is at an all time gap? ”

That’s easy: Glenn Beck. He has done more to divide this country worse than it has been since before the Civil War. That he has done this while whining and crying about the lack of unity makes him a hypocrite. That he has done this lying through his teeth makes him a lying hypocrite. That a lying hypocrite never-the-less has millions of loyal, obedient fans, who think that they have “woken up” when they are still in a darkness created by Glenn Beck makes him dangerous. Many of them attack me for obvious reasons.

I’ve been accused of hating Mr. Beck by people who must forget the number of times Beck has declared, “I hate Woodrow Wilson.” Beck is the hater, though and through, not I.

Your hero, liar Limbaugh, had done his fair share to divide the country along lines of ethnicity and class too.

VRWC Ignorant Destruction Machine says:
“Where did you graduate from? Mickey D’s University?”

BU: at least I went to college and graduate school. That’s much more than Beck and Limbaugh combined.

What about you Ignorant Destruction Machine? Where did you attend college, or is the right question what grade did you drop out of high school?

The Left’s insane obsession with Glenn Beck and FNC is more proof that their claims of free speech over the last few decades has been just a bunch of lip service. It is also proof of an elitist attitude towards their fellow citizens. Sane people realize that a commentator, who makes claims on a television show based on a particular ideology, does not make policy or pass laws in this country, however, Obama does and it is interesting how his ideology is continuously ignored.

Who gives a $h!t what Glenn Beck or any other commentator believes? His beliefs do not shape the lives of American citizens. The fact that some of you may have cringed at that statement is the ‘elitist’ attitude of which I referred previously. Those who think that large numbers of people would blindly follow, then actively cause damage to our society based on one man’s ‘faulty’ commentary is the type of egoism that will be voted out of office on November 2.

FNC, and Glenn Beck in particular can be turned off of your television set (it’s called a remote control) but that’s not enough for the supposed open minded, free spirited thinking Left. It’s not good enough that they don’t hear what Beck has to say, it’s necessary to ensure that NO ONE hears what Beck has to say!

The self appointed elite believe that American citizens are sheep to be led and that they (the ‘elites’) are the ones to do it. The fact that so many are listening to someone like Glenn Beck infuriates them because they believe that the sheep will be led by Beck instead of them. Get over yourselves!

KrlyQ says: “Who gives a $h!t what Glenn Beck or any other commentator believes? His beliefs do not shape the lives of American citizens.”

All last week he had people on his Fox propagnada show showing EXACTLY how Beck has shaped their lives.

KrlyQ, next time write from a location of knowledge, not ignorance.

If you want to understand why any critical discussion of Jewish people or Israel is met with such harsh resistance in the United States, watch the documentary called “Defamation” by Jewish-Israeli filmmaker Yoav Shamir. It’s on NetFlix (right now available streaming). Another documentary (that’s less general and more focused on foreign policy) is called “The Israel Lobby” by Dutch filmmaker Marije Meerman.

I find it interesting that the Bible was written by Jews.
This Bible states that the Jews are God’s chosen people.
The Old Testament condemns homosexuality yet only the most unenlightened realize that the Jewish controlled Hollywood set is largely filled with closeted homosexuals: past and present. Tony Curtis, Jack Benny, Don Rickles, and dozens more.
In other words “Our Book, the Bible condemns this segment of the earth’s population; yet we are practicing homosexuals who remain in the closet!” Can anyone spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-A-C-Y?

According to Danny Thomas’s daughter, Marlo Thomas, recent statements on the Joy Behar Show: Hillcrest is an exclusively Jewish golf course in the L.A. area. Only Jews can become members. She stated that Groucho Marx suggested that her dad, Danny Thomas (a Lebanese Catholic) be allowed membership because he had so many friends that were Jewish comics.

Unless I am mistaken…….this “exclusive ‘Jews Only” smacks of the South’s “Whites Only” as being equally racist!
If Geraldo Rivera needed to punch a ‘neo-Nazi’ for calling him a Jew…………………wouldn’t this indicate that Geraldo holds a certain shame in being a Jew?
If you resort to physical violence aren’t you ashamed of your heritage?
Finally, CNN firing Rick Sanchez for exclaiming that much of the media is controlled by Jews; tends to show just how much power a group can have. If you say they control the media, and then that media fires you………isn’t that saying something a bit dangerous exists in media control?

I noticed how Jewish members of the media backed CNN’s decision 100%: Jon Stewart, Keith Olberman et al.
It seems as though these people scream about free speech loudly…………..but please………don’t ever say anything negative about “our people”!

Isn’t Juddy Miller the one go was fired from the NY Times for making up stories.  How about Jim Pinkerston saying that Sanchez should work at “telemundo” or “Aztec” tv.  How racist is that?
