Glenn Beck is Manipulation Embodied

Thunderf00t recently posted this great video, showing a clip from the Glenn Beck show.

The murder, while disgusting, isn’t nearly as worse as what Glenn Beck turned it into. He twisted a brutal attack on a teen into something to suit his own needs.

Thunderf00t does a great job in the video. Not much for me to add. Here’s his video description:

So Glenn Beck on Fox News recently (September 29, 2009) showed a graphic murder. This is the sort of thing that would get a video pulled from youtube almost immediately, but for some reason Fox deemed it important enough to put on the Glenn Beck show.

Now I’ve seen the ugly side of mankind. But to be honest this is something that one has to mentally prepare for. It should not be the sort of thing that should get pushed in your face. I mean the only warning Beck gives is to tell ‘children to leave the room’ before showing the young teen getting beaten to death. This is I am pretty sure just for the shock value to make the audience more receptive to Beck telling them that its all because we have taken in god we trust off some of our currency.

Beck goes on to blame this on the ‘loss of god’ in America.

Beck gives several monologues as tirades where he basically dictates to the audience what they should think, and in this sense is not unlike howtheworldworks.
Watching Glenn in action is like watching the art of manipulation in motions. He targets his appeals to every mechanism of suggestions, bar reason, logic and facts.

If I sound a little off or if the language is a little off. Bear with me on this one I’m currently laid up with the swine flu.
