Glenn Beck Apologizes For Reform Judaism Comments (UPDATED)

video
» 143 comments

On his radio show Tuesday, Glenn Beck made what he has now called “one of the worst analogies of all time” when he compared Reform Judaism to Islamic Extremism. The reaction was swift, with the Anti-Defamation League saying the comments belied Beck’s “bigoted ignorance.” Today, in a lengthy comment that opened his show, Beck said he agreed and that “ignorant” is a “perfect description for what [he] said.”

Beck made the apology at the top of his show as he said it’s always important to lead with your mistakes so as to “guard your credibility.” He explained that he was speaking off of some information that he had heard (or misheard) from someone the day before, however the onus was entirely on him. “I’ve always told you to do your own homework,” he said. “And, in this case, I didn’t do enough homework.” He claimed that, even as the original words were coming out his mouth, he knew something was wrong.

UPDATE: The group Jewish Funds for Justice have responded to Beck’s apology. They were the organization that Beck was originally speaking about when he made the controversial comments. He was criticizing their ad that was published in the Wall Street Journal. It called for Beck to receive a sanction for past comments.

Here is their full response:

“Statement from Jewish Funds for Justice in response to Glenn Beck’s radio apology this morning:

Glenn Beck’s apology for comparing Reform Judaism to “Radicalized Islam” is welcome but incomplete. While we are heartened to hear him recognize his ignorance, he still has not acknowledged that the letter signed by 400 rabbis and organized by Jewish Funds for Justice represented a cross-section of denominations, including Orthodox, Conservative, Reconstructionist, and Renewal rabbis.

Glenn Beck’s characterization of Reform Judaism is in keeping with his longstanding hostility toward people who see their faith linked to pursuing the common good. This was made clear in March of 2010, when Mr. Beck advised people to leave their churches if their clergy spoke about social justice.

Mr. Beck’s demonization of his political opponents is a regular feature of his radio and television shows. This problem is systemic. His remarks about Reform Jews are only the most recent example of the attacks that occur daily on Beck’s show.

We reiterate our call for Rupert Murdoch to end Mr. Beck’s tenure at Fox News and for Salem Communications to commit not to add his syndicated radio show to their New York stations. Anything short of this reflects an unwillingness to take seriously the harm Mr. Beck causes to many in our community and beyond.”

    You have no credibility. All you have are a bunch of lies and crazy conspiracy theories.

    Speaking off some information he heard? Isn’t that 90% of his show?

    He’s still ignorant, still oblivious.

    Hey I agree with you there, sometimes I wish I could have a conversation with Obama to describe how he’s let down the people who got him elected.

    If Obama lived up to his promises though, your side would be even LESS happy now.. I think the reason he’s tried to be bi-partisan is so your side isn’t angry. Someone should tell the guy it’s impossible to keep your side happy.

    Are all the teabloggers and beckerheads who said Glenn was “Right again!” yesterday going to apologize too?

    Didn’t think so.

  • The Real Royal King

    Reformed Judaism is something new to O’Beckerhead? How could that be? Most Jews in America are Reformed. The Orthodox are only 11% or less? And, doesn’t O’Beckerhead live in NYC? I don’t think it’s possible to live in NYC and not have some sense of this. I think this is appalling. O’Beckerhead slandered half the Jews in America. The ADL should have been much, much harsher. There is no excuse for such ignorance.

Sure, I’m a Christian, but I have Jewish (Reformed, Conservative and Orthodox, Glenn), Muslim, Zoroastrian, Buddhist, Hindu and agnostic friends, and I respect the faith of all and the spirituality of the agnostic friends.

    Somewhere in that 6+ minutes of rambling, I think I heard Glenda say (s) he was wrong about something. Between saying he was ignorant, that he was on for 4 hours, that his show was a “recipe for disaster”, and some incoherent things about his mike, that is. Good for her! Now, if she’ll just address the claim that no Orthodox Rabbis signed the letter, we can start on another round of corrections.
    Glenda says (s)he’ll start with admitting mistakes. Looks like (s)he’ll need more than a 4 hour show.

    Once again Royal Fraud lies to make his point.

    Reform Judiaism does enjoy the largest denomination in the United States but to say it’s 50% is not only outrageous, it’s a lie. Big shock from Fraud, I know. In 2006, the US population of Jews was estimated to be about 6.5 million. Reform Jews are about 1/6 of that, 1.1 million or about 17% About that same of the overall population that consider themselves social justice progressives.

    You are such a pig, Fraud. A pig.

    Here is the comment Beck said which I got from Talkingpointsmemo.com

    “Reformed rabbis are generally political in nature. It’s almost like Islam, radicalized Islam in a way, to where it is just — radicalized Islam is less about religion than it is about politics. When you look at the Reform Judaism, it is more about politics.”

    Beck was quick to add “I’m not saying that they’re the same” and that “it’s not about terror or anything else, it’s about politics, and so it becomes more about politics than it does about faith. Orthodox rabbis — that is about faith.”

    I don’t know much about Orthadox and reformed Rabbis so I don’t have much of a comment. I will say that the comment Beck had in context is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. But bad enough and he did apologize for it.

    Which is better then the lack of apologies that I see from some TV personalities when they attack the christian faith.

    Until the Rabbi’s get together to forgive it doesn’t count. He’s insulted my people for the last time. We aren’t going to put up with his inciting hatred any longer. Our Rabbi’s have spoken. And if you think it’s easy to get the Rabbi’s from all the different sects of Judaism together to agree on something you are wrong…

    Hey Fraud:

    You do realize based on your stats that 51% are of the more traditional (some might say conservative) sects (movements).

    You’re trying to associate half of a population to a very liberal world view and I’m calling bullshit on your association. I also believe I have more authority on this than you. To announce, based on attendance figures no less, that half a given population is aligned with socialist political leanings is preposterous.

    Now to your bullshit assertion that I hate because I support Right to Work legislation. Go screw yourself. Forced membership in a union that you’d otherwise have nothing to do with as a condition to keep your job is simply put, Un-American. Unions are tyrannical and I find it humorous that they’re complaining about Scott Walker telling an imposter that he considered plants. Unions are the kings of using thuggish plants.

    I’m certain that Beck isn’t anti-Semitic. Anti Progressive and anit Social Justice yes, but that doesn’t make him anti-Semitic. I’m anti progressive, anti Social Justice and pro individual.

His idiotic statement was compounded when using his own figures, he assoicated 51% of the Jewish population (that’s over half!) to traditional and conservative movements.

    I am certain that Beck IS anti-Semitic so that kind of leaves us at a stale mate doesn’t it?

    You are playing with figures and statistics and no one is really all that concerned with those inaccuracies…it’s like you are trying to confuse people about what his sin was … his sin was in relating Judaism (in any of its forms) to radical Islam extremists.

    I really do not give one poop if he got his freaking statistics wrong and I really doubt any of my ‘brothers or sisters’ are either. You’re just trying to confuse the argument like the conservative you openly label yourself to be.

    I’ll concede it was an unfortunate comparison (for which he apologized) but I agree that any social justice preaching congregation in any religion is more about politics than religion. Am I an anti-Semite now?

    Wrong! Should I be surprised? Here is Beck’s quote: “Reform Judaism is almost like … radicalized Islam in that it is more about politics than faith and religion.”

    I’ll concede it was an unfortunate comparison (for which he apologized) but I agree that any social justice preaching congregation in any religion is more about politics than religion. Am I an anti-Semite now?

    He is still wrong! it is not ‘almost like’ and Reform Judaism is NOT more about politics than faith and religion! An extremely insulting and ignorant statement if ever there was one. Way worse than an ‘unfortunate comparison”.

    WRONG WRONG WRONG incendiary LIES for the truly ignorant to hold on to and water and grow like
    the weeds that they are!

    He id NOT apologize for the words he said! He said he was ‘sorry if he offended anyone’…that is not an apology for content…it is the kind of apology a child gives when he still feels he was right in the first place. I see through that bullsh*t same way the Rabbi’s did.

    Perhaps you are an anti-Semite perhaps you are not. You are defending one though and that most certainly shades you some one untrustworthy for sure. Since when are reformed Jews “social justice preaching congregations”…just how many services did you attend in order to make such a bald faced LIE?

    I’d say the conservatives are more traditional in their beliefs and the opposite of the reforms. They might tend to be more politically conservative, yes. Conservative Jews typically believe Jewish Law to be binding.

    Yeah, because Jesus never spoke of justice. And remember that verse in the Old Testament: “Fuck thy poor”? And the Torah, pffft, don’t get me started, a more everyman-for-himself sacred text never existed.

    Look, some churches preach social justice, others, the sanctity of life and marriage. There’s politics in both, but you’re in no position to judge whose faith is the more genuinely religious. That’s flat un-American.

    You know I would buy all this “we will never forgive” outrage IF you all had acted the same way when Harry Reid apologized for saying this:

    “He [Reid] was wowed by Obama’s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama — a ‘light-skinned’ African American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,’ ” Halperin and Heilemann say.

    But you didn’t did you? Nope, All was forgiven with Harry because “we know what’s in his heart”

    Glenn shouldn’t have even bothered apologizing because the response is going to exactly the same as if he hadn’t. This just gives the haters something tangible to use in their never ending crusade to shut him down.

    As a Reform Jew myself, I can certainly say that politics has woven it’s way strongly into the faith. My family and I left our synagogue after feeling like politics (specifically left-wing politics) was becoming a focus of our Rabbi and the management staff.

    Religion is religion. Politics is politics. And you don’t got to one for the other.

    You can’t say “anti-Semitism” about anyone other than Republicans. If you do, you will be “reminded” that Semite acutally means… blah blah blah… which won’t be a defense, but it may distract you for a moment, and sometimes that’s good enough.

    It can refer to religion and its many sects, laws, language, politics, and just for fun I shall throw in; tradition, riches, intellect, educated food and fun people.

    That does not mean they can’t be criticized nor laughed at, nor called out when actions by a certain Jewish sect is dishonest or biased.

    This is really incoherent. I mean how could even compare reform judaism with islamic extremism. You think he might have just wanted to ruffle a few feathers with such a wild comparison? Yes. That was his whole purpose. Glenn Beck is the kid in the back of class who keeps cutting stupid jokes trying to get attention. Ultimately, most people stop paying attention to him because he becomes so stupid and annoying. People just want him to go away. That is what is slowly happening to Glenn Beck.

    It’s time to pull the plug on Beck. He’s made so many virulent anti-Semitic remarks. He’s a moron and he needs to be thrown off the airwaves. Let him go back to being an alcoholic and do away with himself. He’s a worthless piece of garbage.

    I personally believe that Glenn suffers from dual personality syndrome. He can’t decide whether he is a comedian or a serious news commentator. A comedian can say ANYTHING and get away with it. A serious news commentator cannot. He apparently get the two personalities confused on occasion as his current delimma suggests. I wish he would forget the shtick but that’s his problem.

Glenn Beck is a air of sanity and reason in an insane world. I have learned more by watching Glenn and Fox News than all the other Networks combined. Glenn is a tell it like it is, guy and I appreciate his truthful reporting and analysis of world events. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people in this world that do not want the truth to get out. They might just be afraid the truth will change their agenda. Glenn and Fox News please keep reporting the TRUTH!

    Why is it that when Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Lawrence O’Donnell, Ed Schultz or any of the rest of the Liberal commentators say anything mistakenly, inaccurate or offensive NO ONE in the media says a word.

    But When Beck, O’Reilly, Limbaugh or any conservative commentator say even the slightest thing that offends a liberal and only a liberal it makes front page news.

    Beck was right, as an *responsible* journalist or commentator (as opposed to those on BSNBC) is supposed to do, to apologize.

    When the Jewish Funds for Justice issued that statement saying that Beck did not go far enough, well they can get stuffed. Social Justice is a euphemism for Communism. Social Justice seeks to level the income disparity by stealing money from those who earned it and giving it to those who did not earn it. How on earth any Jew or Christian could openly advocate an economic system that so clear violates the 10 Commandments is beyond me. Thou shalt not steal and thou shalt no covet.

    From Beck’s own mouth :

    ‘ “I’ve always told you to do your own homework,” he said. “And, in this case, I didn’t do enough homework.” He claimed that, even as the original words were coming out his mouth, he knew something was wrong.’ Mr. Beck, every day on your shows there are multitudes of instances where you didn’t do enough homework. You are a liar and a deceiver. Your disciples are under your spell. Too bad you are leading so many astray.

  • conservative57

    This “Jewish Funds for Justice” group appears quite reactionary, and quick to jump on Beck. As a Reformed Jew, I am disturbed by his comment, but when I hear that he was commenting on this “Jewish Funds” group, perhaps in context Beck’s remarks aren’t so bad.

    But when Al Sharpton calls Jews “Diamond Merchants” , or when Rev. (I think he got THAT from a box offer of Cracker Jacks) Jessie Jackson refers to the Jewish area as “Hymie Town”, no one says a word. And neither of THOSE self-appointed leaders have ever apologized for THEIR remarks.

  • conservative57

    People are ALWAYS more willing to forget about a slip-up, if it’s promptly followed by a genuine apology. You only get into trouble when you try to HIDE and BURY your mistakes (Dan Rather), or continue to LIE to the people (Nixon, Clinton, Obama)(why Obama?..he PROMISED HOPE AND PROSPERITY, and has DECEIVED instead–instituing huge spending and not caring about the common people.).

    Why is Beck not a GUILTY person? He apologized. And, MOST EVERYONE is tuning into the Hannity, Beck, and other FOX programs–as a RELIABLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION, NEWS, AND DISCUSSION. The Ratings show it. CNN, MSNBC, …. are scurring for cover. why? They are PARROTS of the Liberal Media.

    Interesting the way these religious groups behave in ways to draw attention and subsequently elicit comments from various forums. Then if the comments arent to their liking, they plead bigotry and intolerance and political incorrectness. Its a form of entrapment.

    You are half correct Jackson did apologize eventually but Sharpton never once even came close. He should be ignored as a bigot and in particular a bigot that hides behind the “reverend” title. However, lots of Jewish groups did complain and loudly. The Democrats made the choice to let the anti-semitism slide at the time, which only helped push me to No Party Affiliation.

    By the way, Coulter gets on the Sharpton list for her repeated assertion that “Christians are perfected Jews.” She has also never once offered up an apology for that.

    Beck is a circus clown who makes no bones about that. He quickly offered an apology for his words, which is more than the “reverend” Sharpton did. And, keep in mind, I am no fan of Beck.

    One of the things that seems to get lost in stuff like this is that an apology should be accepted the first time on something like this. If he does it again, well that is different.

    It’s shocking and horrifying the way Beck’s sheep can rationalize flat out insults to THEM. As a reformed Jew, who is not even progressive in any way, you of all people should not rationalize a statement so ignorant and false that EVEN BECK ADMITTED IGNORANCE and apologized. He doesn’t do this much.

    How does Beck have such a tight control over gullible people so ignorant that they can’t listen to Beck and hear him routinely lie? Beck is a master manipulator! How good is he? Beck has turned millions of sheeple into effective psychotics.

    One of his minions insisted this week that Beck wasn’t lying when he said Obama ran on promise of “No War.” I showed links to sites explaining that Obama wanted to escalate the war in Afghanistan, but this programmed chimp just dug his heels in deeper and deeper.

    In Beck’s alternative reality, ideology trumps facts. Gordon Bloyer, X-3, Pablo, Sheila Kelly, Bombshell and other psychotic sheep inhabit his world of make-believe, the world where the President is trying to destroy the country and where social justice is “thievery.” Psychotic sheep, one and all.

    No kid ever got away with disobeying the rules by saying “the others did it”. Nonsense. What the man did was wrong. He lied. He presents to the public to be what he is and when he lies, insults and defames, he is speaking his words, out of his mouth from his soul. God will not be accepting Glenn Beck’s or anyone else’s excuse that someone else did wrong, so I did it too. Either you are a decent person really responsible for your words and your conduct or you are a coward hiding amongst the mob trying to justify wretched conduct because someone else did it. Beck’s words reflect his thoughts, he opened his mouth and he insulted a people’s. He speaks lies so often, that even when there is a grain of truth in what he, why would anyone believe him?? Sorry, but the other kids did it, is no excuse for bad conduct and the punishment is to the individual who does the dirty deed.

    Glem Beck made his apology, which is good. I will take it because I know that the Liberals and the Democrats are waiting to stop him from talking about those groups that are trying to take over America. Now, I know he did the comparision but many of those liberals are always tearing cristians apart no one says anything. No one says anything about the Liberal and Democrats tearing anyone down that is not a liberal or Democrat. I am not party affilited and want the right person for the right job. I do not tear people apart because they are not of my liking as these people have been doing for Beck for year. He finally slipped up a bit and they move in to make this a mountain out of the mole hill. What about Rev. Wright? They defend him and elect Obama who listened to him for 20 years. How about Bill Ayers? I could give you more examples of worst actions. I was so upset that because the Democrats and Liberals did not like Palin they plastered her in short on a cover of a magazine to compare her to a barbie doll. This was the most sexist treatment of a woman in the press for if this was just a disagreement about her politics then her appearance should never have been brought up. She was on the energy council but they posted she had no knowledge of energy but Obama was not on the energy council so why is he said to have more experience in energy….This is a witch hunt out of control, …..listen just because someone does not agree with your politics is no reason to try for years to destroy him… We must agree to disagree… be fair here… the Democrats take pay for work they are not doing the senators do not even show up for their jobs…….think about it…

    I have reviewed the above post and they are for sure written by people who do not have a clue to what is going on in America or around the world. Beck made a mistake but is talking about real issues of real things going on so the Left is trying to stop it for they condone these groups so that anyone against those groups have to go down that is why they cannot take the apology.

    I was at bingo one day last month and I met some player at the table from Iraq. They told me and my friend that we did not have to wait for terror to come in the country. I asked them why they said those from the middleeast come here to settle but you notice they do not assimulate they still attend their own group meeting. They come to settle so when they are ready they can get Americans from the inside out. My other friend is Mexican and was dating a middleeastern man and she told me all they do is sit around talking about how they hate American and how stupid Americans are. They take the food stamps buy food to give to their relatives to sell in their store and since it is bought with food stamps they are not out any money. They also get section 8 and medi-care but the American down the street that was in a bad accident cannot even get medicare. So wake up I heard it from those guys mouth and a girl who has direct knowledge of this going on. Everyone in San Diego county knows what the scams are they are pulling on the public assistants some even have called in because they know but they said no one listened. I know not all people are like this but we know if they really wanted to be Ameican they would assimulate …. but they never do…

His ideas have taken him from his church and now it looks like his 26 year marriage is over thanks to Beck. He’s lost business sccounts and his friends don’t have him come golf with them anymore. And most recently he didn’t even visit his own mother in the hospital because he had to go to a Beck event. You think this guy isn’t in your head deep, think again.

    Immigrants have been coming here for a long time. Some cling to old customs , especially if they came here as mature adults already. Having a generation raised in America will begin to change things.

    Reform Judaism is not like Islamic extremism; Reform Judaism and the so-called jinos for social injustice JUST SUPPORT THE SAME GOALS as jihadis, the destruction of Israel and of America.

    Any one with a brain, a soul and a heart should help spread the word that the so-called jinos for social injustice are the enemies of the Judeo-Christian West. They are marxists who see support for jihad against Israel and against America as “helpful” in their campaign to destroy the West.

    PS Lawrence O’Donnel can kiss THIS AMERICAN JEW’S FAT REAR END. I wouldn’t pee on Larry if he was on fire – he is A SHILL FOR THE LEFT AND THEIR JIHADI ALLIES.

    First, Glenn Beck has been a HUGE supporter of Israel while the MSM sits silent as tiny Israel is threatened by it’s neighbors. Anyone who calls Glenn and his supporters nuts is not watching his program. Yes, occasionally he makes a mistake like this comment, but his track record is better than our President. He provides videos, quotes, FACTS, which is better than you’ll find with Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow, who sling the mud not the facts. Why don’t they provide the facts? Because they’re on the wrong side of the truth. So, Glenn says there will be a major uprising and Egypt is the beginning and it came TRUE. Oh, yes, he’s a flake all right. Everything he provides about Soros and his multitude of organizations and the connection to radical left wing organizations and Egypt, the Middle East, and Wisconsin (look at the pictures of communist and socialist placards) is true. Keep those blinders on. It’ll get you no where.

    You slander Beck’s religion everyday ( Mormonism ) so once again you prove to be the biggest hypocrite ever to comment on this site.

    Mormonism is a cult, it is not a religion.
