UPDATED: George Soros's Media Matters for America recruiting and training pundits to spread progressive agenda

March 24, 2011

Writer

George Soros’s personal Glenn Beck hit squad – also known as Media Matters for America – is working hard to indoctrinate new members in their crusade against everyone’s favorite talk show host (ok, third favorite – but you’re on GlennBeck.com). Glenn laid out the numbers between the left’s astroturf strategy and Glenn’s smaller – and more honest – approach to the truth.

“Media Matters' CEO discusses training program to combat Fox News.  Matt Butler said, quote, countering all the misinformation that comes out of the rightwing media is really tough.  Well, we're only 86 people working here and there's only so much we can do to push back on the volume of absurdity coming out of Glenn Beck,” Glenn said on radio this morning.

Glenn pointed out that there are only ten people who work on the production of the TV show. So it takes eight times the manpower and energy to work against Glenn as it does to produce the show in the first place? ( editor’s note: Oh wait. No that’s wrong. Sorry Media Matters! We caught this one! It takes MORE than eight times because 86 people versus Glenn’s 10 people is no where NEAR enough for you. Don’t ever let Glenn say you all don’t know about creating jobs! Glad we caught that one! You’re welcome!).

“It is much harder to make stuff up and smear people than it is just to report the facts,” Glenn pointed out.

“But you're only on the air for four hours a day.  They have 86 employees working on four hours of broadcast minus commercials?  And that's ‑‑ they are finding that to be difficult?” Stu asked.

“What's great is they are also having a little camp,” Glenn said.

“And they are going to train a bunch of people.  Going to train a bunch of people.  And by the way, more good news.  Since its inception in 2009, the Progressive Talk talent Initiative or PTI, has trained nearly 100 pundits who have appeared 800 times on television and radio,” Glenn said (editor’s note: Remember that time Glenn got over 100,000 people to show up at the Lincoln Memorial. Totally unrelated, but I felt we should point out the difference between grassroots and astroturf).

“Media Matters uses that metric to pitch donors for more contributions but its leadership believes that the surge of camera‑ready liberals has recaptured now the lost ground in the media wars against conservatives,” Glenn read. (editor’s note: For more on how great these liberal hosts are, click here to see how Ed Schultz is clearly losing this battleground every night of the week ).

“Those [Media Matters trained pundits] don't actually believe anything.  That's just all ‑‑ those are just hired people to speak.  And they're training them!  They're training the hundred pundits to go out and be on television.  This is insane,” Glenn said.

You can’t train someone to un-suck,” Fox News host Greg Guttfeld said Wednesday night in response to news that George Soros-funded Media Matters would operate a “boot camp” operation to train more “anti-Fox freaks.” To illustrate what this seminar might look like, the Red Eye team goes to the robots:

'The cult of Trump': As Biden era begins, calls grow louder to 'deprogram' Trump supporters

Countless leaders on the left are now arguing that removing President Donald Trump from office won't be enough — they're now calling for the president's "cult-like" supporters to be "deprogrammed." And it's not just fringe politicians.

During an appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher" last week, former NBC anchor Katie Couric said, "The question is, how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump."

Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi questioned whether the nation needs "a 9/11-type commission" to determine whether President Trump was colluding with Russian President Vladimir Putin "the day that the insurgents invaded our Capitol." Clinton also made sure to include her favorite "deplorables" in her unsubstantiated conspiracy theory:

"But we now know that not just [Trump] but his enablers, his accomplices, his cult members, have the same disregard for democracy," Clinton said to Pelosi.

Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and New York Times Magazine's Nikole Hannah-Jones agreed that there is a need for "millions of Americans, almost all white, almost all Republicans" to be deprogrammed and punished, during an MSNBC interview last week.

Now, a story from the Washington Post is also preaching that narrative and even added that we need more restrictions for conservatives on social media and in the broadcast industry.

"So now we have to be deprogrammed? We've heard this over and over and over and over again, for months," said Glenn Beck on the radio program Tuesday. He read through the shocking details of the Washington Post op-ed and discussed the extraordinary dangers of the latest anti-conservative movement in America.

'We are the Alamo, we will stand': As calls for censorship get louder, Glenn Beck urges Americans to stand together

As calls for censorship and restrictions against conservative voices get louder, Glenn Beck said he feels an "awesome responsibility" to speak, not the words he'd personally like to say, but those he believes the Lord would want him to share.

"It's an awesome responsibility, and one that I am not worthy of," Glenn said. "I want to say ... what He wants me to say. And I have to listen very carefully, because I feel the same way you do. But that will get us nowhere."

Glenn said it's time for Americans who are awake — not woke — to come together, no matter which side of the political aisle you're on, and stand with the truth.

"We are the Alamo, we will stand. But we desperately, desperately need you," Glenn said. "We need the people who are awake — not woke — awake. You may disagree with us. We are your allies, not your enemies. And if you will not stand with us in our hour of need, there will be no one left to stand with you in your hour of need. We must all come together, anyone who is awake."

Biden's 'DAY ONE' executive orders: Paris accord, Keystone pipeline, mask mandates & more

The incoming Biden administration plans to waste no time in overturning much of the progress achieved by President Donald Trump.

On his radio program Monday, Glenn Beck ran through 10 executive orders President Joe Biden plans to announce on "day one" of his time in office — including rejoining the Paris climate accord, canceling the Keystone pipeline, mask mandates on federal land and during interstate travel, and a proposed federal minimum wage of $15 an hour.

WATCH: This is why Eric Weinstein is FINALLY talking to Glenn Beck

Eric Weinstein, managing director of investment firm Thiel Capital and host of "The Portal" podcast, is not a conservative, but he says conservative and center-right-affiliated media are the only ones who will still allow oppositional voices.

On "The Glenn Beck Podcast" this week, Eric told Glenn that the center-left media, which "controls the official version of events for the country," once welcomed him, but that all changed about eight years ago when they started avoiding any kind of criticism by branding those who disagree with them as "alt-right, far-right, neo-Nazi, etc.," even if they are coming from the left side of the aisle. But their efforts to discredit critical opinions don't stop there. According to Eric, there is a strategy being employed to destroy our national culture and make sure Americans with opposing views do not come together.

"We're trifling with the disillusionment of our national culture. And our national culture is what animates the country. If we lose the culture, the documents will not save us," Eric said. "I have a very strongly strategic perspective, which is that you save things up for an emergency. Well, we're there now."

In the clip below, Eric explains why, after many requests over the last few years, he finally agreed to this podcast.
