@RDRDRD1,
I find Glenn Beck very dangerous.
This is a man who has hoped, on national television, for another terrorist attack on America so that Americans will be scared enough to accept a defense policy that Beck believes will make us safe from terrorists....
This is a man who says that the President hates white people... inciting serious racial tensions...
I wish we could write Beck off as a joke - most intelligent people would - except that not every viewer is terribly bright, and even many who have the intellectual capacity are simultaneously, and willfully, ignorant regarding a great many issues. And on top of that, you have those who are already bigoted.
Beck is not the only one. O'Reily, Lou Dodds, Hannity, and nearly every one else on Fox News consistently preaches racist doctrine and jingoistic, self-destructive policy. These people are relied upon by millions of Americans for the news, for perspective. The result is the infection of millions of Americans by the most dangerous, wooden-headed, hateful, and self-destructive ideas these men and women are willing to air on television - and if you watch them, you know that they feel few restraints.
As I recall, the Southern Poverty Law Center has issued some statements regarding the racism of at least Lou Dobbs. I would imagine they have addressed some of the others as well.
