Do not confuse shrillness with inaccuracy. If Glen Beck were inaccurate, those inaccuracies would be spread in bold face. If he were lying, those prevarications would be launched in the MSM every evening at 6:30.
But the only opening for disparagement is Mr. Beck’s style.
His delivery of his message fits the requirements of the times. People don’t watch the news just for news anymore… they expect to be entertained. If he were Edward R. Murrow, he would be categorized as boring. Glen Beck delivers accurately aimed barbs in an entertaining fashion.
Don’t think that the phone is a prop. It’s a metaphorical plea for sunshine. He would love to debate President Obama, or Al Gore, or Hilary Clinton. But, because the hasty policies that he decries cannot stand the light of day (read indefensible), he is safe to throw down the gauntlet. His challenge will never be taken. If such policies were defensible, they would be made deliberately, during business hours, in full view of the media, clearly written, and subject to the review of the people.
