We Have A Weiner: Glenn Beck’s The Blaze Quickly Scoops Up CarlosDanger.com

Glenn Beck, to borrow a phrase, was mocking Anthony Weiner before mocking Anthony Weiner was cool. When Weiner went after Beck and other conservative radio hosts for their involvement with the group Goldline, Beck responded with the mock site WeinerFacts.com, which closed shop shortly after Weiner announced his resignation from Congress. But with today’s new revelations about more Weiner sexts under the alias Carlos Danger, Beck’s The Blaze apparently couldn’t resist and got the CarlosDanger.com URL to redirect to one of its shows.

Aside from being the obvious next protagonist of an international spy thriller movie series, Carlos Danger was apparently how Weiner identified himself when engaging in sexts that were totally different from those other ones. And whether Carlos Danger is meant to be a porn name or the Tyler Durden to his unnamed Edward Norton character, the aspiring mayoral candidate has some explaining to do.

But before that, The Blaze managed to pick up the URL and get it to redirect to the YouTube page for its comedy show, The B.S. of A. with Brian Sack. While there was no official confirmation of the URL pickup, one of the tweets about the news was retweeted by Beck himself.

How’s that for a Weiner fact?
