You guys know he is pretty much an entertainer, right?

someone better tell that to foxnews.

his face is plastered all over foxnews.com all the time. Kinda makes it appear as though his "entertainment" falls in the legitimate news catagory.

'Fair and Balanced' :laugh:

As a regular watcher, what did you think of last night's show? Could you give us a brief synopsis? Minus the frog thing, we already know all about that.

You don't have to be a 'regular watcher' to know his shtick. Nice try tho.

Who you are asking is irrelevant if your question isn't valid in the first place.

Lobsters meet that fate for their deliciousness. He does this because he is deep down a sick fuck.

He is that kid in 2nd grade that smushes frogs in the street just to throw them at his little sister.

This guy need to be committed to an institution. He has lost all semblance of rational thought.

Isn't it funny? People get up in arms over a damn fake frog, but they don't give a shit about the cow that they just ate for lunch.

Glenn did what anyone on TV is supposed to do. He got more people to watch.

I was ready to get angry, but then I watched the video- the guy didn't throw anything in the water and he made sure to make it pretty obvious too.

Why get angry, it's a little frog who are under constant attack from small humans otherwise known as children.

I don't like to see small children hurting frogs either.

don't have a basement. I have an attic though, but that gets too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. Thanks for your concern though.

Well not to back that dude, but Beck and Obama are on completely different levels. Obama is a leader of this nation and has a huge role in the direction we actually take. Beck is a meat bag that 98% of the time is speaking non sense.

I find garages to be a nice middle ground between the basement and attic.

You guys know the frog was fake, if you watch the full video he says it himself. Some people just decided to edit that part out cause they have a grudge against him.

Well he either didn't throw anything, or his stunt just backfired as the frog didn't hop out and was cooked.

In either case, it was about as effective as him citing the "University of.....oh I don't remember" as a source for his 1.5 million tea bagging 9/12 zombie army.

Actually, there were real frogs in the plastic cage, but he clearly didn't actually grab one.
