Glenn Beck Didn't Rape And Murder Anyone... But He Doesn't Want Websites Discussing It
from the well,-this-should-be-fun dept
Ok, first off, I'll say this: I don't watch 24-hour cable news shows. In the rare moments when I catch any of the talking heads for any of those networks (CNN, Fox News, MSNBC), it makes me somewhat crazy, because none of them seem to have the slightest common sense. Frankly, they're all just a bunch of entertainers who appear to either be completely clueless, or exaggerate and lie for effect. I have little time for such people -- no matter what ideological bent they happen to come from. One of the popular tactics of such shows, is to use the ever popular "report on a rumor" setup, which lets them insinuate something, without ever officially stepping up and saying it themselves. The simplest form is the "some are saying..." lead in that lets these folks spend plenty of time discussing things without ever actually investigating if they're true. But, at times it goes much deeper into finding some random conspiracy theorist, and building them up into a "movement." It seems to happen pretty regularly, and it's rather silly.In the last couple of weeks, a random internet meme apparently sprung up to highlight this sort of reporting, initiated in a comment on the ever-excellent Fark, it involved a commenter questioning: "Why haven't we had an official response to the rumor that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990?" The idea, which seems plain to many involved, is not to actually suggest that Glenn Beck did such a thing -- but to highlight this tactic of making a totally bogus rumor into "news" by stating it, and wondering why there hasn't been a denial. A bunch of folks have picked up on this claim and run with it (apparently greatly upsetting some loyal Beck fans), turning it into one of those internet memes with legs.
Someone -- quite anonymous -- then set up a website to chronicle all of this, called (appropriately, given the meme): GlennBeckRapedAndMurderedAYoungGirlIn1990.com. The site itself is clear that it's a parody, attempting to highlight this sort of "news" tactic, and the fact that it's often employed by Beck:
This site is parody/satire. We assume Glenn Beck did not rape and murder a young girl in 1990, although we haven't yet seen proof that he didn't. But we think Glenn Beck definitely uses tactics like this to spread lies and misinformation.It turns out that Glenn Beck isn't happy about this either. He's filed a domain name dispute over the domain name, claiming that it violates his trademark:
As for why it's not particularly smart -- whether he wins or loses -- is because he just called a whole bunch of attention to some silly internet meme that clearly wants attention. Beck would have been better off just ignoring it. Instead, in legitimizing it by trying to take it down, many more people become aware of the meme -- and may start calling attention to situations where Beck (and others) make use of such tactics.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

Re: Glenn Beck
If by "weeping and sniveling" you mean ACTUALLY weeping and sniveling then two things are clearly true: 1)you've never watched or listened to his show, AND 2)you're just a designated blog-watcher whose sole job it is to bash people who disagree with the democratic agenda.

Nope he never does that.
Sniveling. verb. 1. to weep or cry with sniffling.
2. to affect a tearful state;
Nope he never does that.
And yes there's a need to get defensive here, because there's very little truth on this particular page. Unless, of course, you count the irony that this entire story is decrying the use of unsubstantiated information to incite viewers/listeners/readers...That's exactly what Mike has done here.

Re: Re: Re:: Glenn Beck's Weeping
As Jon Stewart (EW LIBERAL!!) rephrased it, "I'm not saying your mother is a whore, I'm JUST ASKING. Reasonable people just want to know if YOUR MOTHER IS A WHORE." They (lots of these people, not just Beck) hide behind the question mark so they can say any crazy thing they want.
Use your head. It's not about left vs. right or us vs. them, it's about thinking vs. idiocy. Pick which side you want to be on; if you want to be a thoughtful conservative, that's great. In that case you probably will want to have nothing to do with the likes of Glenn Beck. OTOH if you're picking the idiocy side... then I'm wasting my time.

We've become a nation of sheep, and it's a damn shame.
While Glenn Beck may be the target of this, I hope it opens a few people's eyes. It's not just Beck, it's a whole lot of people in the media who employ these tactics. Beck is just an easy target, and one who's very fun to screw with.

Re: Re: Re: Beck loves this, I'm sure
While it's true that one can work hard and advance one's lot, do you believe it's literally true that that person has done it "by themself"? Real question.
I find that successful people in the US often claim 100% of their success as the result of their own doing, their own bootstraps, and thus 100% should be their own share of the rewards.
I, too, am successful enough. But I am humble enough to know that my hard work, smarts, and career strategy were not enough. I needed the luck of good parents, the social service of good schools, the roads, the telecom infrastructure. I needed rule of law. I needed national defense. I needed reservoirs for freakin water to drink. I needed educated staff that I could hire to help my business progress. That shit doesn't grow on trees, though too many people ignore the role it played in their success.
If success is 100% self-earned, then the successful might have achieved it anywhere. Good for them. I, for one, would not be as successful were I born in Botswana.

I can't believe Glenn Beck owns the trademark of "rape and murder of a young girl in 1990". I mean, Gilbert Gottfried talked a lot about Bob Saget raping and murdering a young girl in 1990 too. I think Beck is barking up the wrong tree. He should be going after Saget to make sure he didn't break any trademark laws.

Re: copyright
Ah. Well, that's interesting because nothing about this story involves copyright. It involves trademark law. They're entirely different.
It is illegal to use someone's copyrighted material without permission regardless of whether or not it is being used in commerce.
Well, actually, I do know a bit about copyright law, and that's not true.
But, as mentioned, this is about trademark. And in trademark, use in commerce does matter.
The only exception is Fair Use which allows some copyrighted material to be used without permission if it is being used as part of a larger article and the source is cited.
Again, you should probably brush up on copyright law yourself, because the parameters for fair use go *way* beyond what you just stated.
But, again, this is about trademark law, not copyright law, so the parameters of fair use in copyright don't apply.

So, what now?
This meme about Glenn Beck not denying a rape and murder is one of those "loaded questions", like "Have you stopped beating your wife?" It implies something that's not true, so Beck is understandably pissed off. This meme is a scummy attempt to discredit Beck.
However, the reason this meme came up in the first place, is because (I'm assuming from Masnick's post) Beck tends to use the same technique: stating rumors and demanding a response, and implying that the lack of response is acceptance of whatever wild rumor he chooses to put forth. Thus, this scummy meme is not a random attack, but poetic justice.
Is that about right?
If so, then I think Beck needs to stop eating kittens.

glenn beck
This tactic referred to in this article is taken out of context. Beck often uses it, but in the context of humor to poke fun of illegitimate news sources such as MSNBC. The only show which continually employs these tactics is the daily show, which is obviously total parody, and not to be taken seriously.
Implying malicious acts such as rape and murder is treacherous whether it be parody or not.

Re: What if?
If Mr. Obama had a history of making statements about others that were false, claiming that he'd just heard such a rumor and wondering if it was true and asking for a statement denying the false statement I'd feel 'bout the same as I do about Mr. Beck in this situation.
The rhetorical tactic Mr. Beck is being subjected to is crap. Yet, Mr. Beck uses this crap tactic and gets paid money for doing it on a national stage. Mr. Beck is just getting back what he's done to others, by someone on his own dime it seems, and showing he can't take it.
Oh, and it there DOES seem to be a police report about a rape in the 1990's that says a "Glenn Beck" was a suspect. So there is a valid question for certain values of "Glenn Beck". Thus for equivalence - there would have to seem to be a valid police report about a rape listing "Barack Obama".
But hey, thanks for asking hojo.

Any way, if you take the first letter of each of the following words (also known as a gramaphone): My name could be glenn beck and I want this to stop right away. This gives you MNCBGBAIWANTTSRA!!!!! Yeah, you can see where this is leading. Now, take this gramaphone and record it, play it backwards and you can hear "Paul is dead, paul is dead". Well, there was a little girl that wasn't raped by Glenn Beck whose name was......you got it...... PAUL. WHOAH NELLIE, I've proven it all! AND.... I'm told that Mr. Beck AND Paul were both alive in 1990 so Mr.B could very well have raped Paul but this cannot be proven unless Mr. B makes a confession or asks for leniency from the 1990 people.I think the residents of that state can now rest easy knowing that little Paul not only didn't die in vain but didn't die at all, in 1990. Now, in 1991.........

Did Glenn Beck Rape and Murder a Young Girl in 1990?
Not just Beck, but all of Fox News, uses this totally unprofessional method of starting and perpetuating lies.
[ link to this | view in chronology ]
Did Glenn do it?
"Would you kill someone for that?...I'm thinking about killing Moore...I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it,...No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out. Is this wrong? I stopped wearing my What Would Jesus — band — Do, and I've lost all sense of right and wrong now. I used to be able to say, 'Yeah, I'd kill Moore,' and then I'd see the little band: What Would Jesus Do? And then I'd realize, 'Oh, you wouldn't kill Moore. Or at least you wouldn't choke him to death.' And you know, well, I'm not sure."

"Didn't" is the wrong term.
If you follow Becks own logic, and use his GOP membership as a guide to his moral values and the values he places on the life and/or happiness of others it's very easy to believe that on occasion he might very well have raped and/or murdered or raped and murdered or murdered and raped some young woman in 1990. If he behaved as he does on TV and he was in a murder rape trial and I was on the jury he'd have a hard time winning me over.
So maybe you should think twice before proclaiming the innocence of someone based on information you just don't have.

You're probablly over analyzing these 2 sentence I put, and how I spelled non sensical wrong and that maybe that stems from how I was raised or now your trying to question my level of intelligence and maybe you are even guessing my color of skin, and where I grew up, or that I'm probablly a woman.... and blah blah blah!! Get a life stop trying to act smart talk about stuff that matters or don't talk at all (I'm sure you would be doing us all a favor by keeping your analytical justifications of ones theory, to yourself) There! I hope I wasted your time, even though its not even comparable to the time I wasted reading just the 1st sentence of this article. SHUT UP! Go analyze yourself (ha that should be interesting).. Bla bla! Bla!
