History Of Hate
Glenn Beck uses his media platform to disseminate vitriolic hateful rhetoric and stoke racial anxieties. The Southern Poverty Law Center admonished Glenn Beck for fueling violent hate groups and the Anti-Defamation League aptly describes Beck as “fearmonger-in-chief.” When advertisers sponsor Glenn Beck, this is what they are paying for and associating their brand with:
Glenn Beck said President Obama is “a racist”
On July 28, 2009, discussing President Obama, Glenn Beck said:
“This president has exposed himself, I think, as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people, or white culture.“
Adding…
“I’m saying he has a problem. He has a, this guy is, I believe, a racist.“
To date, Glenn Beck stands by his claim that Obama is a “racist” with a “deep-seated hatred for white people, or the white culture.” Additionally, Rupert Murdoch, the owner of Fox News, recently stated that Glenn Beck was “right.” In a November 10, 2009, interview with Sky News, Murdoch agreed with Glenn Beck’s assertion that Obama is “a racist”, saying:
“And um, that was something which perhaps shouldn’t have been said about the President, but if you actually assess what he [Glenn Beck] was talking about, he [Beck] was right.“
Glenn Beck launched bigoted attack against India
On December 10, 2009, Glenn Beck launched a bigoted attack against India. Media Matters offers this fitting description:
Thus, within the span of a few minutes, Beck implied that there are no quality medical schools in India; implied that medical care in India is a shoddy imitation of real health care; implied that the entire nation is an undeveloped backwater without even so much as indoor plumbing; and compared the Ganges River, a holy body of water for one of the world’s oldest and largest religions, to a disease.
Details and video of this rant are available here.
Glenn Beck has a long history of sexist comments
On December 8, 2009, Glenn Beck said “I don’t hate women, they’re very convenient to have around [but they shouldn't vote].” I’m sure he’ll protest by claiming that he was joking. But, I don’t really see what’s funny about the struggles that women have and continue to face. Moreover, his long history of sexist comments make such an excuse less acceptable.
On December 7, 2009, after noting that Sarah Palin “looks really hot,” Glenn Beck proceeded to mock the appearances of Sec. Hillary Clinton and Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Some excerpts of what Beck had to say:
“Sarah Palin looks really hot in that hot…And, in a completely unrelated note, Hillary Clinton looks tired.”
“Oh, yea sure she [Hillary Clinton] looks professional, Sarah Palin looks hot in the hat. Seriously.”
“I wonder what Nancy Pelosi would look like in that hat. Has she had…Has anybody noticed that Nancy Pelosi…Has she had serious plastic surgery? Either that, or she is a Disney auto-animatronic.”
Is is it appropriate for a political commentator and newsman to speak about female political figures this way? Glenn Beck would seemingly answer yes. On October 8, 2009, just a few months prior to making the above remarks, Glenn Beck mocked the appearance of another female political figure. Of former Secretary of State, Madeline Albright, Glenn Beck said looking at her “burns your eyes out,” adding, “look at the skin on her neck…she looks like a turkey.”
On November 25, 2009, while discussing a potential Palin/Beck 2012 ticket, Glenn Beck suggested that a woman’s place is in the kitchen. In ruling out the ticket on November 24, 2009, Glenn Beck said:
“Palin/Beck? Ridiculous…I was just thinking, what I’m gonna take backseat to a chick? While you’re at it, go shoot a bear! Make some stew! I’m hungry in here.”
The above are recent examples that Glenn Beck can add to his long history of propagating sexism, which among many instances, includes:
- Glenn Beck called Senator Mary Landrieu a “high class prostitute.” Later that day, speaking about Sen. Landrieu, Beck added to his earlier remarks “so we know you’re hookin’, but you’re just not cheap.” [12/23/09]
- Responding Gloria Steinem’s discussion of sexism in American politics, Glenn Beck said: “You self-centered, self-righteous, socialist, out-of-control, dangerous, man-hating bitch. Shut your mouth. We might have bought into this crap in the 1960s because too many people were doing LSD. We’re not on LSD anymore. You need to start making sense.” [5/3/08]
- Glenn Beck saying “Ugly people, if you’re a guy, you can get past it. I don’t think you can as an ugly woman.” Adding, “you’ve got a double-cross, because if you’re an ugly woman, you’re probably a progressive as well.” [2/14/08]
- Glenn Beck commenting on Hillary Clinton’s voice: “She’s the stereotypical bitch, you know what I mean?” [3/17/07]
- Or, in Glenn Beck’s distant past, where he called a rival radio DJ’s wife, who had just suffered a miscarriage, and proceeded to mock her for it live on the air. [details of this event are available here.]
Glenn Beck asked the first Muslim Congressman to prove he is not a terrorist
In 2006, Glenn Beck raised the specter of interment camps for Muslims “who have sat on their hands” and not “lined up to shoot the bad Muslims in the head.” A month later, he issued a similar warning to Muslims if they failed to respond to terrorism the way the he wanted, saying they “will be looking through a razor wire fence at the West.” Following these claims, Glenn Beck’s anti-Muslim bigotry reached new heights in a November 15, 2006 interview with Rep. Keith Ellison. Ellison is the first Muslim ever elected to Congress. During the interview Glenn Beck asked the Congressman to “prove” that he wasn’t working with terrorists:
Glenn Beck: OK. No offense, and I know Muslims. I like Muslims. I`ve been to mosques. I really don`t believe that Islam is a religion of evil. I — you know, I think it`s being hijacked, quite frankly.
With that being said, you are a Democrat. You are saying, “Let’s cut and run.” And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, “Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies.”

What is this site other than your personal temple of hatred for anyone who disagrees with you all symbolized in your hatred of Beck? You are a blind hypocrite. You are espousing everything you claim to be against, and this web site is a shrine to your ignorance. You are just another shrieking hate spewing hypocrite who reveals in his rants that he does not understand how the world works. So instead of discussing or attacking actual issues maturely you create a web site attacking a person. I’ve read some of your attacks are for the most part they are the rantings of a lunatic. You even attack Beck for his satire as if it is fact. Are you capable of telling the difference? The more I read of guys like you on the left the more I am convinced you guys are total whack jobs.

I believe this site is dedicated to stopping the spread of hate and fear. I’ve seen no personal attacks directed to Mr Beck, only a dedicated effort to highlight his actual words (of which satire is far from evident). All topics are well quoted, and really highlight the disservice Beck is doing to the U.S. I’m not even a U.S. citizen and this guys words truly offend. I applaud StopBeck.com for standing up to Beck/Fox. The sponsors are leaving for a reason Bruce, or do you have another theory why this “temple of hate” has influenced these socially responsible companies?

People like Bruce are the reason that Beck still exist in the public eye. They buy into this hate speech because it gives them a sense of purpose in life. They don’t understand their political values or their religion.
For these people, the more people hate Beck, the more they feel justified. It makes them feel like superior people, despite that they know nothing and will miss everything in life.

One of his shows that finally motivated me was when he acted out poisoning Nancy Pelosi. I can handle him calling Obama a racist, but acting out murdering someone, and there by implying that someone should follow through, was the end for me. You should include this segment in you list.

I think Beck speaks well enough for himself through each of these specific quotes. Furthermore, nobody’s encouraging lynching the guy – this site simply calls to pull him off public television, to ensure he doesn’t continue to spread his message of bigotry.

Larry, please tell me this is a joke. A racist and a coward? You’ve never met anyone on this site. And Glenn Beck does not tell the truth. He takes little tidbits of information, changes the context, and uses it to create a distorted image on events in the minds of people who don’t have the time/intelligence/desire to look into the issues themselves. If you want to actually prove anything you should respond with some examples of Beck’s statements that are articulate and accurate, then we can discuss the issue and see where the truth actually lies. I personally believe Glenn Beck is a fat pig-eyed mormon fuckface who should have drank himself to death when he had the chance. Whether he’s saying the health insurance reform will providence insurance for dogs (This he actually did say on November 12, 2009), or saying that 45% of doctors will quit if reform passes (This is a distorted inaccurate statement based on a poll taken by Investor’s Business Daily). He also said that John Holdren is support forced abortions and putting sterilizing chemicals in public water supplies, which is completely wrong, as well as saying that America is the only country in the world with automatic citizenship for those who are born within the country. That is completely false. I’m gonna shoot you an email, not to annoy you, but just to make sure you get this because like me, you probably will have forgotten writing on some random website unless someone reminds you. I don’t want my email on the website but I got no problem with respectful debate between me and you, you’ll receive my email shortly and you can respond from there.

Beck has a right to make a living now? His living is predicated on selling advertising. If his behavior is out of community standards enough for advertisers to withdraw, then wouldn’t he technically be sabotaging his own living by carrying on with said behavior? Is logic really this hard to grasp for right-wing reactionaries?

I love this site; Glenn Beck needs to be locked up in a room with Rush Limbaugh and Anne Coulter and set on fire. Huge problem with America’s culture solved.

I used to watch Glenn, just as I did Hannity and O’reilly and the other so called Pundits. I am a Libertarian however and I started to realize that these folks are all part of a much grander scheme. It’s all Propaganda all the time. These folks are Neo-Cons and are all part of the Industrial/Military/Corporate/Banking Cartel. Just as the MSNBC, CBS, ABC, affiliates lean more toward the Socialist/Progressive agenda. All these Talking Heads are a part of the 4th Branch of Government, bought and payed for by their Media Pimps. Depending on which Corporation owns which news channel, you will ultimately find that behind the facade lies a much sinister motive. NBC for example, owned by GE certainly needs to promote their agenda and needs to get their Politicians into office so they can lobby them so that they will secure various lucrative contracts with the government, on the other hand, News Corp which is owned by Murdoch, whom has his hands in many other Business ventures needs to promote his Political Whores in order to do the same. That in turn leads us to the Left/Right Paradigm, which is a tactic as old as Genghis Khan. Divide and Conquer. It is no different than what the NFL does. The NFL Corporation regulates all the teams, and by propaganda create the individual team rivalries that in turn produce a fan base that also generates revenue by promoting the sale of paraphernalia, tickets, T-shirts, Logos, trademarked items, etc… In the end of the season it’s down to the 2 best teams, hence the Super Bowl. In Politics there is not much difference as the MSM all year promotes and creates rivalries with characters like Bradshaw, Boomer, Brown et al as the pundits, selling O’reilly coffee cups, Beck’s plagerized books, Hannity’s concerts, ad nauseum. What bothers me most is that my brothers and sister in this country are so delusional that they fail to see the obvious.
100 yrs ago the Press was supposed to be the truth finders, the people’s Political watchdog, the sentry’s of integrity. Today these Anchors are nothing more than Government/Corporate Prostitutes making outrageous payrolls and laughing all the way to the cathouse. Glenn Beck included.

While your considerate response is welcome in this day and age, I’ve got to say, you can’t possibly be serious that a hundred years ago the media was anything but a tool of the rich. Hearst? The Spanish-American war?
Right/left paradigms are valid based on the results that their ideologies yield. It’s that simple. One side is a a protector of the wealthy. the other is ostensibly a protector of the general welfare, although in this country they do less of that and more of the corporate gladhanding. If you look at any country with a viable Democratic Socialist platform, the the difference between left and right is apparent.

Beck is simply a poor man’s entertainer. His political knowledge rivals only Sarah Palin’s. It’s unfortunate that the majority of his audience is too old, stupid, ignorant or bigoted to see what truly lurks behind those big blue eyes (with sweet crocodile tears running down them). I call it “chaching.”
The truth is that he’s merely a puppet. Look behind the man and you’ll find the puppeteer O’Reilly’s arm deep inside his love hole. And behind O’Reilly we find another puppet master who “comes from the land down under”. It’s all so sorted.

If you have the truth on your side, why fear someone else’s voice? Rather than start a crusade to “stopbeck” (you do realize it is an opinion show..meaning you are trying to stop someone from sharing their opinion)–why not come up with a site proving the points he is making are wrong. All i see here is a bunch of satire comments, and things taken out of context.

It’s bad enough he has not a clue about basic history, and the little voices in his head rewrites history and chants conspiracy theories to him, but nothing is more annoying than the fact that he uses a kindergarten chalkboard.

Ok,Larry…take a deep, calm, breath and try and drown those little voices out of your head just long enough for me to explain that this area is for comments and there is no requirements for emails. There is a reason that when you submit a post the email field says,” WILL NOT BE PUBLISHED”
You see, there are schizophrenic, paranoid people floating around the web that have these silly ideas that the web is real life and want others to post their full names and emails – all kinds of weird sh&@. Would you like me to post a link that will direct you to a web safety course, so you too,can be protected from these nut cases that can stalk you?

Mel…As you said, if you have truth on your side,why fear someone elses voice? A crusade to stop beck? Beck and his little voices have been trying to get his disciples to stop doing lots of things. Trying to get his sheep to stop government by organization and protesting. Just to pull one recent “stop” off of Glenns list-his recent attempt was telling his flock of sheep to stop attending their churches if they promoted the christian tradition of social justice or economic justice -you know, that christian thing of helping your fellow Christians in poverty. Guess Glenn’s little voices thinks they are code words for communism and Nazism. I bet Glenn finds code words in a bowl of Campbell’s alphabet soup,and sure we will soon hear how the Campbell Soup company is secretly preaching communism and Nazism. He will draw little pictures on his chalk board,maybe associating it as: soup kitchens= poor people =welfare= coded alphabet soup!!! The Campbell company is promoting socialism for more soup sales to soup kitchens!!!
Whoa – got a little off topic here…anyway, so Glenn wanting to stop people from attending churches is just one example of why your post is nothing short of hypocritical. If the people here want to stop Glenn Beck, you should be pleased to see that there are not two different set of standards for Glenn or this board.

John…. I have no doubt that the sponcers that ditch Beck take into consideration the types of people that view his show. I’m sure that if they felt they were of sound mind they would have thought twice about the choice they made. People with little voices talking to them,or have one brain cell is probably not on thier high priority list of potential customers. I see you liketo use your full name like, Larry.

Wow, where to begin….poor mans entertainer? As apposed to a rich mans entertainer??? Hahaha, what kind of a stupid comment is that? As for the other crap. My wife and I arent old (mid 20’s) Stupid/ignorant….my wife is a Doctor so shes not stupid and I study both sides of the story so I’m not ignorant. Oh and my wife is a hispanic immigrant so neither of us is bigoted. What else you got??? It seems to me that all of those accusations really describe you and your ignorant comments. You judge an entire group of people without having any facts. You just repeat what you hear others saying. So wouldnt that make YOU the puppet??? Oh and I’m not a huge Sarah Palin fan but lets lay off the poor lady. Find another punching bag.

Becoming a doctor requires more training than most other jobs. It takes at least 11 years to become a doctor: 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, and 3 years working in a hospital. For some specialties, doctors may have to work in a hospital for up to 8 years before they are trained. Now, you say you are both in your mid twenties-you did not say late twenties, so unless she started college at 14 she can’t be a doctor. maybe a dentist doctor?
I notice you people from Glenn’s side sound of with a lot of anger in tone and like to use lots of >?????? at the end of your sentences like Larry. That shows a side of anger. A physiologist will tell you that, which,BTW, takes 5 years of schooling (probably on a whiteboard, too). I would have mentioned maybe shes a physiologist, but obvious you have anger problems that have not been resolved,so ruled that out as her profession.Of course,I’m speaking strickly from facts.
Doctors Note: not from facts…maybe mb stands for medical bullsh#@

Buzz,
That was a truly awesome post and I salute you. I’m ashamed that there exist people like Beck and I’m more ashamed that there are people, lots of people, that believe what he says. It’s a shame the human race hasn’t progressed as far as we would like to believe..

I’m surprised no one has posted this – well worth viewing: http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-march-18-2010/conservative-libertarian
I used to think Beck was batshit crazy, or just stupid, but it’s hard to reconcile that with his success both socially and financially. Instead, I think he has learned how to use the media to tap into the public’s ignorance and paranoia, much like Limbaugh, Coulter and Hannity. It’s no coincidence that they share the same audience, and the same revenue stream.
This is a great site. Keep up the good work – it’s important that someone stands up to people like this (and those wackos at Westboro Baptist Church – but that’s a whole different topic).

Obama is a proven racist and Marxist.
All the Bush-haters have another website to gravitate to.
What hypocrites, you guys forget all the ‘hate’ language you used against Bush?
Someone wrote we should respect the President – yeah, if his name is not Bush, right?
about 1 year ago
No, his name should have no bearing on whether you respect him. Now, when he lies to the nation to get us into a war of choice in order to help his cronies in the Military/Industrial complex and the oil business maximize their profits at a prohibitive cost to American taxpayers and at the cost of thousands of American lives, at that point I stop respecting that person. Thus, it isn’t that I never respected GWB. He lost that respect through malfeasance so blatant than any non-imbecile could see his utter lack of respect-worthiness.
Simple fact: The Democrats won the election, both for the Presidency and for Congress. That means they get to implement their agenda, just like the Republicans did from 2000-2008, leading us into the worst financial mess of our lives, with almost every sector of our economy, nay our very society, much worse off due to 8 years of Bush policies. So, now the Dems get their chance to fix it or, as the Republicans did, screw it up beyond all recognition. If you Republicans and/or Libertarians and/or Tea Baggers don’t like that fact, I’d suggest electing someone that is willing to follow in the Bushian tradition. Either that, or move to a different country because it is apparent you are not fond of democracy. God forbid Obama should try to enact the policies he campaigned on. Another reason the Right is upset. Trying to follow through on campaign promises is a foreign concept to them.
My favorite of the volumes and volumes of Beck’s lies, deceits, and fabrications (the entirety of Beck’s show) was his surgery (purported to be for hemaroids but I think he had his head surgically implanted in his butt) when he bemoaned the horrible state of medical care in our country. He stated how lucky he was to have survived his experience with American medicine, how messed up our system is. And then, a few years later when the Dems state that the American Medical system needs an overhaul, there is Beck bemoaning how the Left wants to ‘tamper with the best medical system in the world’. So, which time was Beck lying through his teeth? The actually shocking thing is that this implies that Beck has at some point made one statement that was NOT lying through his teeth.
DON’T TOUCH MY MEDICARE AND SOCIAL SECURITY AND KEEP BIG GOVERNMENT OUT OF MY LIFE.

By the way, to my fellow center-leftists…
Making comments like “Limbaugh, Beck and Coulter should be set on fire” lowers you to the Beckian standard. We should stay above that. So while I believe the country and the world as a whole would be better off without those particular voices being part of the public discourse, setting them on fire is the ‘Right’ way. Putting pressure on the advertisers to stop supporting the spread of lies and misinformation and the dumbing down of public discourse (cause otherwise those pesky facts get in the way).
You know, pesky facts like that Canada spends less than half the % of it’s GDP than we do on healthcare, cover everyone, and rate much higher in results than the US. So they give healthcare to all their citizens and do it cheaper and with better efficiency and success than the US does. Damn that government run health care.
If Obama could find a cure for all disease, illness, and injury, the Right would blame him for putting medical professionals out of work.

Um, not to nitpick too much, but you might want to correct the typo in the paragraph about his false accusations against the Muslim congressman: I think you meant “internment camps”…”interment camp” sounds like a place where the people you've rounded up are buried, rather than imprisoned.

It is your right to believe anything you want but Beck makes stuff up and jumps to conclusions without checking out the facts first. I honestly think he is a little paranoid. He did a rant on “communist symbols” on Rockefeller Center which would lead one to assume that Nelson Rockefeller who was responsible for those symbols was a closet communist. Does that really make any sense at all? Even if you could somehow convince yourself that a wealthy capitalist would support an economic system that would rob him of his wealth and power, no further proof is needed of Rockefeller's disdain for communism than the incident with Diego Rivera's mural. In 1932 at Rockefeller's request, Rivera (who was an avowed communist) began work on a mural in Rockefeller Center which was later destroyed because Rivera refused to remove an image of Lenin. So Rockefeller put communist symbols on the outside of his building but had a mural destroyed by one of the 20th centuries greatest artists because it had a communist leader in it? This is all the proof i need that Beck is either intentionally dishonest or is too stupid or lazy to research facts before he opens his mouth on a subject

Thank you for exposing this comedian for what he is. He is certainly not a journalist. He is preying on the weak souls of our society. But Rupert Murdoch is the one that should ultimately be held accountable for allowing this poor excuse for a news commentator to be on Fox Noise, excuse me, News.

Funny thing is he got the interpretations of the art in Rockefeller plaza from an art textbook written some years ago. He didn't make up those interpretations. But, sadly you can't expect anyone on the left to actually do their research before they bash someone.

Beck is right — Obama sat in a racist church for 20 years and will never be able to change that… racist is as racist does…….. he has never renounced his racism.
Second I don't see you upset with Ed Schultz who said he was going to pee on people? You are all one-sided anyway… Truth is not hate, it's truth. FACE IT.
This website needs to come down…. HMMMM.

And who are you to say Beck's comments are schizophrenic? They only look that way to someone who won't face up to what these mad men are doing.
Did you know that up until the last 5 minute of their lives, the poor Jews in the camps did not know they were facing DEATH until they were shot ? How could they be sitting on the lawn calmly just 15 minutes before????

They call that a red diaper baby… born, bred, and educated into the ways of communism. Communism is fascism, and they kill to get their way.. nothing is beneath them. The fact that Obama had a Chairman Mao ornament on his Christmas Tree was really chilling…. that is like seeing a swastika! Imagine! Where is the outrage against this hate??? Mao killed 10 times the people that Hitler did by the way, but you young'uns have been so deprived of real history how would you know that Mao, Che, Hugo, Castro, and their ilk are all murderous tin pot dictators?

How do we catagorize his on-going analysis of US history? He is turning history into a Bible…open to interpretation and twisted assumptions. He has turned into a bible-school teacher…is that satire, or is it a distinct attempt to become the leader of another Fundamentalist Revival movement? Maybe it is true that satire and fact, in his case, are blurred…painfully. He has failed to prove any of his theories, and it is up to him test each of his open-ended hypotheses in a scientific and scrupulous manner.

I have noticed that liberals to not research comments to determine if his comments are factual. I have tried to verify MSNBC's rantings, but I can not find their sources, except the world would be a better place if everyone was a liberal. If being liberal is the right belief, why is European Union have problems? Hugo Chavez has gotten rid of or shut down his conservative news outlets and kept the ones who praised him…what a good leftist…err I mean Socialist. So far he has not killed anyone against him.
