A Few Words About Glenn Beck

From Salon via The Daily Howler.
I'm not gonna read it because I've already heard it.
And I'm not really as disturbed about him as Somerby.
Somewhere today I read that Beck has an audience of 2.2 million people a day. They're the crazy ones, and their numbers aren't all that alarming.
And besides, didn't Father Coughlin have a relatively large audience in his day?
On the other hand, ya gotta wonder how many extra issues Time sold of the Beck cover, and how many subscriptions that might translate into. Oy.
Okay, I'll worry. But I won't read it.
