  This "hate filled nonsense" to which you reference, is it in the source video in this article? Can you cite specific examples from the source video?

  I hear Chicago has strict gun control. Percentage of murders associated with handguns in Chicago has steadily increased year over year.

  I watched the same video sourced above, and didn't arrive at the same conclusion-- but it did make me think that video games and other media are having more of an effect on ourselves and our culture than we think.

  I believe Beck was speaking to the brain being rewired to something we do not yet know. But being rewired in the sense of being desensitized.

  Yes, silencing dissenting opinion is a great step towards fascism.

  I disagree. I contend that Beck is explaining how Watch Dogs is teaching players to circumvent laws, hack into personal devices, and become voyeurs into the private lives of private citizens. This concerns him as a parent and what effects it may have on his children.
  
  He hasn't called for any censorship of the game, though.

  Problems in the Article

  on Glenn Beck Claims Watch Dogs Is Teaching Children How To Hack The Public For Realz
  Reading through the article, then listening to what Beck had to say in the source video, it's clear to me the author isn't being completely honest with the words he claims Beck said:
  
  

  4. And then Beck gets to the culmination of this stupid screed, holding up his iPad and informing his listeners that Watch Dogs is training children how to hack into his tablet while he sleeps next to it.

  
  
  No where in the video sourced does Glenn Beck say that Watch Dogs is training children how to hack into his tablet, nor doing so as he is sleeping next to it.
  
  When confronted about this false premise over Twitter, the author stated:
  
  

  he specifically talked about his iPad being next to him and his sleeping wife. WTF are you talking about?

  
  
  Now, I'm still unable to find in the video where Glenn Beck mentions his wife. Perhaps the author can clarify?
