I'm also pretty sure that Ann Coulter is a robot that was programmed to generate as much profit as possible by getting the most attention that is possible. It decided to say whatever pisses people off the most because people pay attention to things that make them angry and/or frightened. Yes, Ann Coulter scares me.

Fox News regularly reposts content from other websites and the AP wire with only minor rewording, even if it's a story that goes against their narrative. They're lazy hacks in addition to being biased fucks. I'd be more confused if they published something original along those lines.

http://www.foxnews.com/health/2013/06/12/scientists-say-new-study-shows-pig-health-hurt-by-gmo-feed/?intcmp=obnetwork "pig health hurt by GMO feed" is their conclusion drawn from one study which found that pigs eating one variety of genetically modified corn had higher rates of stomach inflammation than those eating non-GM corn. They also have a lead-in on their main page being insulting to Snowden for telling a local Chinese newspaper that Chinese citizens have been spied on by the US. "Fair and balanced".

What's going on with Buzzfeed? Their political section seems to get more slanted with time. They had a Koch sponsored event recently. The odious Villager Ben Smith is running the show - I don't get it. I don't get how cat pictures, lists, and LGBT meshes with right wing slanted political news. Is this a Republican attempt to get the kids on board with Wingnut crazytrain?

Glenn Beck has thoroughly plundered the depths of right wing insanity and now ventures to the left to see what riches he can wrest from the clutches of the communists.

From watching the video it looks like more of Beck's usual schtick. From time to time on his show he'd have a poignant monologue about how totally apolitical he is and how much he just wishes we could all love each other and get together and solve America's problems before it's too late and blah blah blah. This just looks like a stunt where he gave one of those speeches using stuff written and drawn on note cards because he lost his voice.

I agree. This seems basically indistinguishable from his normal stuff -- I don't get where 'Beck has a change of heart' comes from.

I think Three Olives summed it up pretty well in the GBS thread. "This has always been Glenn Beck's shtick, mainly because he is a creepy Mormon playing to a conservative Christian audience. Mormons and conservative Christian messaging has always played down those lines, we love the gays, that's why we are trying to save them from hell for being filthy faggots. We love the poor, that's why we are trying to teach them bootstraps. We love the Muslims, that's why we are trying to save them from hell." Love through oppression and fearmongering.
