Urge CNN not to provide a platform for conservative misinformation and hate speechTake Action
CNN Headline News has hired Glenn Beck -- a nationally syndicated right-wing radio host known for making controversial and offensive statements -- for a "new prime time program." Recently, Beck commented that it took him "about a year to start hating the 9-11 victims' families," described individuals suffering in New Orleans immediately after Hurricane Katrina as "scumbags," and contemplated whether to hire someone to kill filmmaker Michael Moore or to do it himself.
CNN's decision to hire Beck, along with its reported hiring of controversial radio host Bill Bennett as a political analyst, raise serious questions about whether CNN has made a high-level decision to support and promote right-wing individuals, even those who have a history of promoting conservative misinformation and offensive rhetoric.

Glenn Beck is the conservative radio jock who discussed killing Michael Moore on the air. This is just one example of the disgusting hate speech that he spews.
Here's a Media Matters link to some of his hate speech:
