Snopes debunks Glen Becks lies re: cars.gov owning your computer files.

[Metta]

The usual fear and flim flam. Scary stuf to hear him tell it. He goes to an old page meant for dealers and drives off the cliff from there. Snopes clarifies his lies -

His lies, if you care. Don't eat for 30 minutes before watching this video -

1. NICE catch!

This is excellent. Everyone trusts snopes, so there's another nail in Beck's professional coffin.

Any more sponsors drop him this weekend?

2. You'd be surprised. Or maybe you wouldn't, given the source

To: All

Snopes is a Leftist site, run by Leftist activists, who use their False Authority Syndrome to further the Leftist Agenda.

They took down all the links to the Clinton Body Count and put a Bush Body Count in its place.

They also, in April of 2003, stated that they feel that since they are an “independent site” and must maintain their objectivity, they cannot morally support the soldiers of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

They live for web hits and ad dollars. Do not feed them. Do not give them the web traffic they so desperately need.

3. : : : sigh : : :

You know, no matter how much stupid I see from those people, that place, I am still always surprised.

I think it's good, because if I got used to that much stupidity, I'd be in trouble myself.

False Authority Syndrome. That's a new one on me, but, yeah, it figures.

A belated to DU, by the way................................

4. Welcome to DU. May your brief stay be a happy one.

I think it's sweet of you to try and drum up traffic for Snopes, but really, they're doing just fine on their own.

6. Don't think so...

"the source" is a post from Freeperville. I think this poster is being sarcastic.

But, I've been wrong before.

9. A fairly happy one except for those who 1) can't read and 2) throw around "brief stay"

Re-read the post I replied to.

16. "Reality has a well-known liberal bias"

You have to wonder in the Freepers are even aware of how moronic they are. Just like Bill-O, they label anyone who disagrees with them a "Leftist activist". I swear, this is so immune to correction, it could be a mental illness.

5. Fine by me if the nitwits want to believe Glennie on this one...

More $$$ for car buyers with brains.

7. Why can't the FCC go to FAUX News and demand

that they be renamed a entertainment station rather than a News station?

P.S. And even calling it entertainment is a stretch of the imagination.

[Metta]

12. Yes, why? It's the public airwaves, after all.

I've often wondered why the FCC won't step in, heavily fine them and shut them down, aside from their cowardice.

[Incitatus]

10. Christ! Is there anything the Fox crowd won't believe?

I wonder if these right-wing pundits secretly have a contest to see who can make up the most ridiculous bullshit and have their audience swallow it.

[jtrockville]

15. Yes - they will not believe the TRUTH.

[zoff]

11. Beck is the new leader of the reich wing.

He is absolutely jealous of that lying sack of shit druggy and is hell bent on outdoing him. Heil Beck.

13. Thank you for this, Metta. K&R. nt
