MTV may face child porn charges

January 21, 2011

There’s a new show on MTV that is drawing criticism from several parents groups and some speculate the network could be facing charges for child pornography. Glenn sees the show as a another sign of the negative influences American youths are facing every day in popular culture.

Glenn read from The Blaze, “The show is called Skins. It premiered Monday, three million viewers. To give an idea of the show content according to The Blaze, the first episode opened with a young teen girl trying to sneak home after an all‑night bender without tipping off her parents. The series premiere alone included sex, drug‑dealing, alcohol, prescription drug abuse, sex, prostitution, smoking, homosexuality, violence, car theft, voyeurism and more sex. In fact, the entire premise of the first episode was how a group could get their 16‑year‑old friend to lose their very uncool virginity before their 17th birthday and after kids' friends wake up from their drug overdose and their stolen car is full of illegal drugs, rolls and crashes into a lake that the kids laugh it off. The end.”

“I don't know where we're headed,” Glenn said.

Stu explained that the child pornography charges could stem from the fact that most of the actors on the show are actual teenagers, some as young as fifteen, and that simply having filmed them in some of these situations is enough to bring legal action even if the footage never airs.

“Having it on film is enough to be a child porn, you know, charge. It's not just airing it on television. That's something completely different and a line I don't think anyone ever thought we'd cross but just having it on film is enough legally and they are talking about actually, this could be an actual issue with MTV,” Stu explained.

Glenn held up a picture of one of the actresses on the show and was reminded of the girls he saw in New Orleans who appeared strung out, abused, an lost. “I would imagine abused, living on the streets. I mean, just where you just as a dad or a human wanted to get out and just go, come, come with me, just come, come away, come away, there’s nothing but death here for you. It's evil.”

“I have to tell you that the one thing that I know is true is that if we lose this generation, this next generation, not only is the country in jeopardy, our souls are in jeopardy. This generation that is coming up now, they are different. They are powerful, powerful,” Glenn said of the youth in America.

“They're born spiritual warriors. Much more powerful I think than we are. And we must educate them and protect them and guide them,” Glenn said.

Why would Hunter Biden release a memoir NOW?

During his campaign, President Joe Biden survived scandal after scandal involving his son Hunter — the Ukraine/Burisma scandal, the laptop scandal, the one involving a stripper from Arkansas and a long-lost child. And yet, after it all appeared to have been swept under the rug, Hunter has now released a memoir — "Beautiful Things."

Filling in for Glenn Beck on the radio program this week, Pat Gray and Stu Burguiere discussed Hunter's "horrible" response when asked on "CBS This Morning" if the laptop seized by the FBI in 2019 belonged to him and reviewed a few segments from his new book, which they agreed raises the question: Is Hunter trying to sabotage his father's career?

Glenn Beck: Here's why MAJOR companies are going all-out woke over Georgia's voting laws

Countless corporations — from Delta Air Lines, Coca-Cola, and Porsche to UPS and LinkedIn — are calling out the Georgia voting laws, calling them "restrictive," "racist," and "discriminative." Meanwhile, words like "stakeholder" and "equitable" are starting to show up in their arguments.

On the radio program, Glenn Beck gave the "decoder ring" for what's really going on here, because our society is being completely redesigned in front of our eyes.

There's a reason why all these big businesses are speaking out now, and it has very little to do with genuine ideology, Glenn explained. It's all about ESG scores and forcing "compliance" through the monetization of social justice.

Glenn went on to detail exactly what ESG scores are, how they're calculated, and why these social credit scores explain the latest moves from "woke" companies.

Who is the REAL Jesus? THIS is what America needs to hear today

Dallas Jenkins is a storyteller — and he's telling the most important story of all time in a way that many believed was impossible.

Jenkins is the creator of "The Chosen," a free, crowdfunded series about the life of Jesus that rivals Hollywood productions. And Season 2 could not have arrived at a better time — on Easter weekend 2021. Church attendance has dropped, people are hungry for something bigger than all of us, and many are choosing social justice activism, political parties, or even the climate change movement as "religions" over God.

This Easter weekend, Jenkins joined Glenn on the "Glenn Beck Podcast" to discuss the aspects of Jesus that often get overlooked and break through the misconceptions about who Jesus really is to paint a clear picture of why America needs Emmanuel, "God with us," now more than ever.

Lara Logan: Biden's border crisis is enabling the 'MOST POWERFUL criminal organizations' on Earth

Award-winning investigative journalist Lara Logan joined Glenn Beck on the radio program this week to argue the Biden administration's border crisis is "enabling" drug cartels, allowing them to exploit migrants, use border wall construction roads, and cross the border much more easily.

Lara, who has witnessed and experienced firsthand some of the worst violence around the world as a war correspondent for CBS News, told Glenn it's "not an overstatement" to call the cartels in Mexico "the most violent and powerful criminal organizations on the face of the earth." And while they're "at war with us, we've been asleep at the wheel."

But Lara also offers solutions that the U.S. can enact to stop these horrific atrocities.

"There's more than 30,000 Mexican civilians who are massacred every year in Mexico by the cartels. And that's just the bodies that the Mexican government owns up to or knows about, right?" Lara said. "There's Mexicans buried in unmarked mass graves all across the country. I mean, everyone knows that the violence of the cartels is not like anything anyone has ever seen before. It even pales in comparison to, at times, to what terrorist groups like ISIS have done."

Lara went on to explain some of the unspeakable acts of violence and murder that occur at the hands of the Mexican cartels — 98% of which go uninvestigated.

"That's not unprosecuted, Glenn. That's uninvestigated," Lara emphasized. "[Cartels] operate with impunity. So the law enforcement guy, the policemen, the marine, the National Guardsmen, who are trying to do the right thing, who are not in the pocket of the cartels — what chance do those guys have? They've got no chance. You know where they end up? In one of those unmarked graves."
