and the glenn beck era is over. >> you will pray for the time when i was only on the air for one hour every day. >> oh, i'm praying for you, glenn. tonight, my eulogy for the glenn beck program. today, republican presidential kanld mitt romney finally reversed himself on a factually untrue claim that president barack obama had made the economy worse. but in order to do that, he had to lie again. >> i didn't say things are worse. what i said was the economy hasn't turned around. >> what was that governor rom y romney? here's what he said in new hampshire just four days ago. >> the obama administration has not been able to deal with the number one issue that the country was concerned about as he became president, which was the economy. he did not cause the recession, but he made it worse. >> and just so there's no confusion, romney said it two other times this month in his presidential announcement and the recent republican debate. >> barack obama has failed america. when he took office the economy was in recession and he made it worse and he made it last longer. >> what this president

oh my god glenn beck like an amazing broadcaster i'm going to miss that so here is. going to the proper care and i'm going to miss the insane ideology. the split from fox it's presented as mutual in reality readings once in over three million viewers have been plummeting turn the damn t.v. off right now if you have to and advertisers good time slice the content scaring them away and turn it into a fricken televangelist religion largely abused far from heartfelt you became a mormon yeah. i apologize but guys understand this. my life is like that and she would have sex with me until we got married and she wouldn't marry me and unless we had a religion groundless stuck with a shock jock throughout the years as far as it and i think has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again deep seated hatred for white people or the white culture and all this back built his own fundamentalist america centric culture where most of the outside world he did serve a big. urban america is right when you know you'll get a megaphone of shameless rhetoric he claimed to be on a mi

i have sharply disagreed with and sometimes condemned glenn beck on many things, particularly on his terpretations. beck critic though i am, i do try to resist the temptation of kicking someone on the way out the door who is leaving peacefully, so i leave the attack on beck to others tonight, and simply offer this review of the last 2 1/2 years of the fox version of beck that the country has managed to survive. >> baaa! hahaha, hahaha! >> just in case you have been watching all week and you haven't been frightened yet, oh, you will be. you will be. this? this president i think has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has deep-seeded hatred for white people. i don't know what it is. he is a racist. >> to fight for reform for special interests. >> what planet have i landed on? this is the damn planet of the apes. >> the president is surrounded by communists and marxists. >> he wants to legalize the illegal aliens. what does he do? he says, i'm just out of stuff to do. what else could i possibly do to the american people? >> they are marching us to a brand of nonviol

>>> we'll also look at glenn beck's fox farewell. can he keep his clout online and the media's celebration, there really is no other word, of the gay marriage vote in new york. but what about the other side? i'm howard kurtz and this is "reliable sources." >>> we'll get to michele bachmann's campaign in a few moments. there's been so much buzz about mark halperin's suspension i wanted to address it at the top of the program. he's an msnbc analyst, "time" magazine contributor as well. >> are we in the seven-second delay today? i wanted to characterize how the president behave had. >> we have it. we can use it, right, alex? >> go for it. >> let's see what happens. >> i'm behind you, you fall down. >> the precedent has been set. go ahead. >> i thought he was kind of a [ bleep ] yesterday. >> oh, my god. delay that. delay that. what are you doing? >> i think the president -- >> i can't believe you -- i was joking. don't do that. did we delay that? >> they did not delay it. we bleeped it. you probably know it was a word that was tossed ar

what do you think of glenn beck's comments? >> well, glenn beck is an entertainer. he just made a major transition in his career and whenever he does that, he makes a hitler or nazi reference. some people might argue he's made more hitler references than hitler. of course, that's inaccurate and not true but it was entertaining. that's what he does. he's an entertainer, not unlike howard stern, except for howard's the greatest radio entertainer of all time and everyone knows he's there to entertain. glenn beck, people aren't so sure and they confuse it which is why a lot of people think he's dangerous. the bottom line, there is a comparison between political camps when you're trying to teach young people how to think. however, the hitler youth were trained to be murderers and these kids were going to lead perhaps the most peaceful country in the world for generations to continue being that way. >> roland, you know talk radio. you're on talk radio. was this entertainment? >> first of all, there's no doubt you can classify him as a rodeo clown. he's called himself that

. >>> glenn beck is weighing in on the norw waway tragedy. zain, talk about what he is saying. >> reporter: his comments are creating fight the firestorm. what he has basically said is to compare the youth political labor camp on the island in norway to the hitler youth in germany. alone to exactly how he put it on his radio show. >> as the thing started to unfold and then there was a shooting at a political camp which sounds a little like, you know, the hitler youth or whatever. i mean, who does a camp for kids that is all about politics? disturbing. >> reporter: that's a weird comment to make, kyra, because there are politically oriented camps in different states in the united states. actually, glenn beck is the founder of the 912 project who does that. he founded it back in 2009. there's a lot of reaction on cnn.com. one person says this in response to glenn beck's comments about the hitler youth comparison. he is a disgusting guy who lies constantly. he calls himself a conservative, that is not conservatives stand for. another person says

moses the then lobby members of congress to make their voices heard in politics oh and this year glenn beck will headline as the keynote speaker and just a look at what kaylan for found out about what is going on at the christians united for israel summit. for these christians it's the holy land psion the home of god's chosen people christians who now you can eat for israel israel israel and israel thousands gathered here in washington to show their support for the nation of israel god says i will bless those places. and personally i would i would like to be part of that thank you very much. organized by pastor televangelist john higgins the christians united for israel summit plenty of big names including glenn back john bolton and members of congress i want to keep the liberty of the strike yesterday in the words of the orange to destroy all those years in each oh. oh. oh those were really.

you got of we got see in mali president of less government on the least bad debt ceiling option glenn beck's hitler youth ron paul is picking up steam in iowa and jake and god join me to tell rick perry to shut up seriously this is an awesome show we have god joining us tonight and he's not even a headliner only on adam vs the man. ladies and gentlemen but the fault is nearly upon us. yesterday for no better reasons than the actual timing both president obama and house speaker boehner gave speeches on national television and today is the minus eight days to be felt it was a lot of the july twenty second deadline i hear you cry see last friday was the deadline put forth to get legislation passed to raise the debt ceiling in an orderly manner in time for the august second deadline and imposing default on august third that is if they choose the farts little obama legal easier i don't think he's ever said we're going to default on the debt he's saying we can't default on our obligations then what's the real fear mongers run loose with the consequences of defaulting on the debt there was plenty o

the final chapter begins of the "glenn beck program." i announced a couple of weeks ago i'll be leaving this 5:00 p.m. show. there are other things that i feel compelled to do. honestly, i feel as though for about a year now, i have strange relationship and the camera man oscar, he is usually the guy, the main camera for me. we have talked about it before ander riand erin and i talk abot before. i have a strange relationship with you. i can feel you when i look out in the camera. and the thing that has been happening to he over the last year is i feel you say we get it. we get it. now what? i have felt the responseability to be a guy ringing the bell. i don't think we're going to get anybody else in the boat at this point. i think what we have to do now is prepare to be different people. i do believe that the radicals have nefarious plans for our country and for us as a people. we have a choice. we can be swept up in it, or we can stand together. and be an alternative. it means more than bag tea party. it means reaching out in different

i issue a personal challenge to my beloved brother glenn beck. i will debate you anytime, anywhere, at any point. i will give you an hour, i will give you five minutes, but you will have to stop talking about us and start talking to us. you have one week left before your show goes off. my phone is ringing. call me, glenn beck, and let's have this discussion, let's have this argument, this battle of ideas, and let's fight for liberty and justice for all. thank you very much. [cheers and applause] >> on saturday, representative thaddeus mccotter of michigan announced his candidacy for the republican presidential nomination. he made his announcement at of freedom fest independence day celebration hosted by waam of ann arbor. this is about 10 minutes. >> taking heart, despite the times and the weather. i will be brief today so that none of you get electrocuted. first i would like to introduce my wife rita.

twist statistics and use fake research to prove the muslim throw everything into last year when glenn beck gave this very unscientific analysis of muslims and terrorism. is the number of of islamic terrorists one percent i think it's closer to ten percent but the rest of the p.c. world will tell you oh no it's miniscule but even close quote it actually is minuscule but by the way our nation focuses on islamic terror you think glenn was right but the truth is muslims are the least of our nation's worries when it comes to terrorism as this chart based on f.b.i. data shows only six percent of terrorist attacks six percent between one nine hundred eighty and two thousand and five were carried out by islamic terrorists just six percent. yes just this month right winger david uri shell shocked me released a scientific study alleging that eighty one percent of u.s. mosques speech are attacks that promote support violence. you can find similar language in the bible by the way it was picked up by numerous online right wing blogs including many of the same blogs the graphic was written course this s

why did glenn beck go after van jones? he went after van jones, because he was a member, but no longer associated with color of change. an organization that caused 29 sponsors to stop supporting glenn beck, because glenn beck was calls president obama racist. these are two known adversaries to the president and to social justice. and he fumbles those. those are the four majors reasons that were apparent to me at the time to suggest that he would not do much in the area of social justice. >> dr. newsome, in a similar sort of vain, in an article or chapter in your book, you explore issues related to a black feminist view of obama's look at social justice issues. like dr. reed, you suggest that he made mistakes with people of color and how he responded to women's issues, not particularly women of color, but women's issues. would you like to speak to that? and also why you feel the important to discuss obama's administration in the context of black feminism? >> yes. one thing that i like to say to begin with is that black wome

leave it that i think that the audiences are are trustworthy audiences can decide whether or not glenn beck is a productive person to put on television i my opinion is clear on this i want to go back to a larger question about regulating the media we regulate all sites all types of corporations for the for the public interest so if a coal companies polluting too much pollutants into the environment we regulate those pollutants to make sure they're not ruining the world around them why don't governments have the responsibility to regulate news industries in the same context to avoid pollutants that are decreasing the quality of democratic citizenry. you want to reply. and. we are actually calling for the government to determine what good discourse is is this what he's asking if i think he is that there was a original point he said the public good used to be determined by politicians right the state government says that what he's calling for it say is let's be really i didn't say that well then what is regulation and what is regulation regulation of what i get regulations or regulation on the

from the israeli point if you have a successful lobby the only wrinkle here is now you have mr glenn beck who is a mormon and he used to of course be on the fox network now he's going to build his own network and some people speculate that will he bring them warman's into this evangelical coalition which would make an even bigger bunch of christians saying israel is right whatever happens is this ok so whether or not it grows a corporator. element it remains to be seen but is this influence problematic i mean the united states is israel's closest ally we provide an average of three billion dollars annually of taxpayer money to israel we defend it militarily is that being driven by religious convictions and religious pressure by christians or it's not being driven by the religious they're really you know america is an extremely religious country as you probably know and therefore from the point of view of let's say israeli policy a constituency is because the christian constituency in america where you know seventy percent of americans say they have a personal relationship with christ or w

politics never read the newspapers didn't really read books until two three or four years ago even glenn beck and self that he's like that he said he never was interested in politics at all until two or three years ago now you have for better. you know whatever you think of our politics now you have perhaps millions of people who are newly political and their main vehicle has been the internet and fox news is that a good thing or a bad thing ok sean you want to feel that go ahead. obviously i think it's an awful thing and i'll leave it that i think that the audiences are our trustworthy audience as they decide whether or not glenn beck is a productive person to put on television i might put it's clear on this i want to go back to a larger question about regulating the media we regulate all sight all types of corporations for the for the public interest so if a coal companies polluting too much pollutants into the environment we regulate those pollutants to make sure they're rooting the world around them why don't governments have the responsibility to regulate news industries in the same cont

moses they'll then lobby members of congress to make their voices heard in politics oh yeah and glenn beck will headline this year as the keynote speaker so take a look to it what kaylan ford found out about what is going on at the christians united for israel summit. for these christians it's the holy land zion the home of god's chosen people christians who know you the who is for you usually who is real nice to me i'm thousands gathered here in washington to show their support for the nation. of israel god says i will bless those who places. and personally i would i would like to be part of that thank you very much. organized by pastor in televangelist john haiti christians united for israel summit plenty of big names including glenn beck john bolton and members of congress i want you to look over the over the strike yesterday in the words of harm to destroy those eight years in each show me. and and and hope for is really. something else like all those he's become the leader of my hope you are the hope of the hosts of the promised land each year the conference brings together christian

youth camps in this country that very much are called political, some of which are aligned with glenn beck you didn't know it, and apparently there are some people out in the blog sphere who don't know it because they've been supporting what beck say. for the record, there are a bunch of programs that you can call political camps, some education educational, some nonpartisan. some aren't. but politically oriented camps are being organized in several states by the 9/12 project, an organization founded by glenn beck himself in 2009. the colorado 9/12 project hosted a so-called patriot camp for kids in grades 1 through 5 earlier this month featuring programs on, quote, our constitution, founding fathers, the values and principles that are the corner stones of our nation. in august, the danville, kentucky, chapter was hosting a vacation liberty school that organizers say will help your children understand where we came from, understand where we

the end of an era, an glenn beck said farewell.ely, toddlers and tierre ares is still around. i honestly never watched an entire episode of his show before and it was amazing. he's quite a character. he's leaving to launch his un company. it's called mercury radio arts. but look at this. he or someone on his staff spelled the work mercury wrong. i'll -- [ laughter ] i'll miss glenn beck. we all will. and to honor his passing, we took the audio from one of his rants and combined it with video from a looney tunes cartoon. >> this guy has a deep-seeded hatred for white people or the white culture. i don't know what it is. he is going to set all of the wrongs of the past right. >> you can't say that. david axelrod is white. i think 70% of the people that we see every day are white. >> i'm not saying that he doesn't like white people. i'm saying he has a problem. he has a -- this guy is -- i believe, a racist. >> jimmy: i like him without pants. and that is all, folks. last weekend here in california, the world's ugliest dog was crowned

at the event, keynote speaker and cufi member glenn beck pledged $10,000 to cufi on campus. a student movement dedicated to fighting against anti-semitic and propaganda on college campuses. beck says when it comes to the persecution of the jewish people, enough is enough. >> it is time that the world declares, clearly in a unified voice that israel not only has the right to exist and exist as a jewish state. the jewish people have a right to live, right to defend themselves against all threats foreign and domestic. and for once and for all the good people of the world must remember there is a difference between good and evil and we must choose! [applause]>> cufi's founder pastor john hagee had tough words for the obama administrations over its treem to israel. >> the truth that americans don't want to face is this president obama is not pro-israel. he told o the jewish people in jerusalem they couldn't build homes in east jerusalem. the truth is barack obama has absolutely no authority to tell the jewish people what they can and cannot do in the state of israel. [applause].

remember when glenn beck said this about president obama?ed himself as a guy over and over again who has a deep-seeded hatred for white people or the white culture. i don't know what it is. this guy is, i believe, a racist. >> that clip still drives me crazy every time i see it. after those 2009 comments, advertisers boycotted beck's program. murdoch was unaffected and even defended his comments. >> i think it was something that perhaps shouldn't have been said about the president. but if you actually assess what he was talking about, he was right. >> of course, just this past february, the glaring headline "fox news chief roger ailes urged employee to lie, records show." of course that was in reference to uncovered lawsuit documents that said that judith regan was encouraged to lie to federal investigators. nothing ever came of the claim, but newscorp did they regan $10.7 million in a wrongful termination suit settlement in 2007 what is the latest scandal involving "news of the world" paper? is this a scandal that could take murdoch under?

that it was not because of the donald trump's or the glenn becks, or any of the crazies on the right that he presented that birth ser certificate, but it was because of the liberal left progressives, you know, who would come to me and say why won't he just release his birth certificate. it would take me 235 years to explain why he should not. [laughter] >> we don't have 235 years here. >> exactly. my point is this that we -- that someone mentioned the minorities and young people are profoundly disappointed in the last two years, but it's not just with obama. i believe it's also with the progressives because there were progressives saying that, and if he can't get progressives to stand up, then he's in trouble. thank you. [applause] >> anybody want address that in >> to be fair there are crazy black people too. [laughter] >> alan keys is not accepting the certificate and says it's forge ji. he's black. >> i think his audience for the birth certificate was neither the left or right, but the moderates. it was a way for him to use the presidential lectern literally in the white house to

so they look to this carnival barking guy, to glenn beck and bill o'reilly and rush limbaugh, these peopleeem to know what they're doing. they have a lot of confidence but they don't care what is true. they don't care at all. fox news shows when they want to attack -- [applause] you don't need to apply. fox news reports on the wisconsin protest, they can't find any violence so they show a california protest where they had violence. there's palm trains in wisconsin in the wintertime on fox news. that's one example. i could give you hundreds. so we need, what we need is our meeting with the self-confidence to report what they know to be true. that global warming, there's a consensus on the part of the established that global warming are man-made. that obama was born in the united states. that there are

. >> you mentioned the two organizations and glenn beck has been the favorite topic of media meters forca and had his last regular program on fox this week and media matters joined with color of change, an organization you know something about, and jewish funds for justice, and purchase taking credit for the ending of beck's show. now, it turns out that the co-founder of color of change, james rucker, served as director of grass roots mobilization for the george soros founded moveon.org and he was also part of democracy alliance, which is quote, a network of investors building progressive change. that was launched by george soros. isn't that something that the media should be looking at? >> well, i think, again, you have to look at what are the different institutions on the left and right and the democracy lines on the left that came out of all of the efforts in 2004 and the efforts against gary and progressive donors said we're fot going to stop by and take it and that's the infrastructure that they built and we have the same on the right. like, clearly, this has to be a bigger convers

the next day glenn beck's web site the blaze posted a creatively edited version of my take on their website with the headline lib talkers calls on our border to star people in red states which isn't exactly true i was hoping president obama would get the message about how to force republicans to have a little skin in the game in the debt ceiling negotiations exactly calling for mass starvation of people in ohio but you know that's what back does which is fine and i saw the usual uptick in death threats that happen whenever they mention the funny thing about this is yesterday someone on t.v. echoed pretty much the exact same thing i'd said a week or so ago about baker's power to pick and choose who or what gets paid if the debt ceiling isn't raised and it came from the most unlikely of places brit hume on fox news. there will come a time when there won't be enough money to fund all government departments and agencies which would mean real disruption the administration would then get to decide which programs were funded in which are not and will surely blame republicans for any fallout that t

talk about james kept growing that organization and took a different direction than he did take on glenn beck and fox news for. that being responsible abusing i would say of year waves and putting out things that were not true about me of probably about you about so many other people and eventually. i think that it's a good cation of our system of our system of american society you can't just abuse beer waves you can't just abuse the public trust and expect the american business community to stand with you and pay for ads on your show when you're saying things that are not true that are defamatory and that are misleading the american people so it wasn't just a james rucker stood up and said the american business community stood back and said we don't care how many eyeballs you can get with this type of programming we're not going to put money put our grades next to yours and eventually he was. made decisions or to get off the air back to i am excited about the ability that people have now because a little little david's of the world like a james rucker to use new technology to. fight for real

marriage or any of these things you know when you have people like robert george of princeton who is glenn beck's mentor and who teaches jurisprudence there who's an advisor to antonin scalia on the supreme court and has pushed the roman catholic church to the far right here in america on things like stem cell research reading something like the manhattan decoration it's two hundred fifty evangelical leaders and roman catholic bishops signed on to calling for disobedience of the law when it comes to abortion rights family rights in terms of the ready paid people the marriage stem cell research cetera et cetera it isn't that they are pushing people to commit violence or should be blamed for this man's violence i am simply saying the context here is not an isolated incident of it to range psychopath or a serial killer who's just raping women and throwing them in alleys this was a political act planned for years by fifteen hundred page manifesto and the ideas expressed by this killer and the reasons not for the killing but his reasons for fearing europe is going to be taken over by them are echoed b
