Liberal group Think Progress slams conspiracy theorist Glenn Beck?
2/26/13
Think Progress published a blog post saying that Glenn Beck Wants To Make Cable Subscribers Pay For His Conspiracy Theory Channel. The website, funded by George Soros, certainly seems to be more than a little concerned about Glenns Get TheBlaze campaign which started yesterday with the goal of getting TheBlaze added to every TV providers channel lineup.
Just really bad group of people, Glenn said.
And they came out with this story yesterday that said Glenn Beck is asking his listeners to call their cable companies and their satellite providers and demand TheBlaze, and the reason why I say this ‑‑ and Ive asked you, say it politely, please. And from every indication we get, you are making a huge impact, just yesterday. But this is a long‑term campaign because its going to take a long time to convince these people. And yesterday thousands and thousands of people called. It is remarkable because the servers ‑‑ we have huge servers. The servers shut down yesterday, the phone banks were completely crushed, and all we did was we asked you, would you just politely ask your cable companies.
Youre paying for Al‑Jazeera. I want you to really understand when you look at your cable bill, I want you to understand that anywhere from two cents to probably, whats the most expensive? I have no idea. $10? Something, you know, maybe $2? I have no idea. But those, the money that you pay in goes to those people. So as much as you didnt watch Current, you actually put money into Al Gores pocket. You are putting money in to pay for MSNBC. You are literally paying for Al‑Jazeera because some of what you pay every month goes to those cable operators. Those networks. And so that helps defray the cost. Thats why were asking you to help us get onto these cable and satellite providers because Im at the top. We dont have any loans. We currently dont have any other outside investors. Its you and me. Its your $9 and my life savings. Thats what it is. And so if we can get onto these cable operators, new funds will come and well be able to expand the programming.
