How do you undo the DISinformation?

[Jesus]

Maddow should spend less time worrying about Glen Beck and more time working on presenting poltical news and current events honestly and without bias. She's smart enough to understand and discuss all sides of an issue but regularly fails to do so.

Maddow is all about opinion based on reality, and Beck is all about conspiracy based on delusion. Take your pick.

You fight DIS information with real information and discussion.

Maybe some of you should watch Glen Beck with some regularity before you so completely diss him. Sometimes what he says makes good sense but you have to have enough common sense in the first place to recognize it. But then again, he is in a time slot opposite Oprah. He is no better or worse than Maddow. Both have their agendas.

Maddow doesn't spout on and on about these incredulous conspiracy theories. She doesn't refer to anyone as Hitler. Most of what she does is call BS on the stuff coming out of Fox and she backs it up with facts. Glenn Beck seems to be allergic to facts.

Maddow takes things out of context some to make her show more entertaining, BUT usually keeps the facts pretty much intact. I am thankful for her, Stewart, and Colbert calling Beck and Limbaugh out for some of their buffoonery and conspiracy theories. They are all entertainment shows, but at least Maddow isn't making her $$ by inciting fear and prejudice. That puts her leaps and bounds over Beck for me.

And she makes me laugh ............................. Beck makes my skin crawl.

Andy, I have tried to watch Beck on multiple occasions.

I know you have highly recommended some shows he has done (on the presidents and the constitution I think), but I get so distracted by his theatrics, tone, and blatant misrepresentations that I can't watch the show.

It says a lot about Beck that I can't watch an entire segment of his show without being disgusted, as I try to get information and opinions from as many diverse sources as possible.

I can't watch Beck for long. He's all over the place. Is it possible that his ADD is communicable?

This is precisely my sentiments. I've tried to watch him also, and he deviates from reality like nobody I've ever seen before.

Alone in the wilderness with millions of other viewers not on SoWal. I guess I'm more thick skinned than most but I'm not easily swayed despite what some may think, by Beck or anyone else.
