Does anyone else think Glenn Beck is an obnoxious, self-centered psycho?

Question

I haven't personally encountered anyone else in my community who has actually seen this guy, but he's been on CNN for a long time and I can't help but wonder if CNN knows what it's doing? I understand that they are attempting to "balance" the news, but I really think they go overboard with a "nut case" like this (no offense to anyone else). This guy has the most illogical, irresponsible, inconceivable answers for current events imaginable--and I can't help but believe that he is mentally unbalanced.(Again, no offense to anyone else....it's just that I can't believe this is a person that would be tolerated by a national network for mass broadcast). I do realize that his alcoholism and his late-in-life conversion to Mormonism no doubt taint his view of lots of things, but he has consistently taken outrageous (and wrong) positions on everything from global warming to Bible interpretation. He talks about common sense but has none. Why does CNN continue to give this loose cannon a platform?

Answer 1

I think you are being too kind to Mr. Beck.

Answer 2

i actually like him.

Answer 3

One word: RATINGS!!

I'm sure he signed a well binding contract with a good lawyer. And if he didn't get ratings he would be gone.

I think I watch some of these shows sometimes for a laugh and they are total train wrecks, you can't help having your jaw on the floor in disbelief of this craziness and warped minds that are really out there.

I can't really follow his logic as well. I only watched him a few times.

Ever watch Nancy Grace? Whoooaaa.

Talk about opinionated, self centered drama queen. She consistently cuts professionals off and degrades them in mid- sentence.

She always has angle to a breaking story where most authorities don't know half the details and brings attorneys and prosecutors to comment and convict these people before they are even found or arrested.

Every single nut job that calls into her show comments on her f'n twins EVERY time and she shows pics of them just about every show.
