GLENN BECK’S ARGUING WITH IDIOTS DEBUTS AT #1 ON NEW YORK TIMES HARDCOVER NON-FICTION BESTSELLER LIST GIVING BECK TWO #1 BOOKS ON CURRENT NYT LISTS

Debut Builds Upon the Success of Glenn Beck’s Common Sense which is #1 on the NYT Non-Fiction Paperback List, Selling Over 1 Million Copies to Date

Arguing with Idiots is Beck’s Fourth Consecutive #1 Bestselling Book

New York, NY (October 1, 2009) – Glenn Beck’s latest book, ARGUING WITH IDIOTS: HOW TO STOP SMALL MINDS AND BIG GOVERNMENT will debut at #1 on the October 11th New York Times hardcover non-fiction bestseller list, giving Glenn two current NYT #1 bestselling books. GLENN BECK’S COMMON SENSE is #1 on the NYT paperback non-fiction list and has sold over 1 million copies since its release on June 16th.

It is the book’s 16th straight week on the list.

ARGUING WITH IDIOTS is Beck’s fourth consecutive NYT #1 bestseller and Beck is one of only a handful of authors to have reached #1 on both the fiction and non-fiction New York Times lists.

ARGUING WITH IDIOTS is the first hardcover title released under Beck’s groundbreaking partnership with Simon and Schuster to publish a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books for all age groups.

Using his trademark straightforward approach, Glenn Beck shows readers how to influence everyone within earshot using actual facts and common sense. Packed with humor, illustrations, and informative sidebars loaded with well-researched facts, ARGUING WITH IDIOTS arms readers with the knowledge and know-how for handling any argument.

While Beck entered the media world as a DJ at the tender age of 13, everything changed when he found a new vision of his career – talk radio. In 2002, he launched The Glenn Beck Program on just 47 stations with the mission to make listeners "feel goodness from my show and accept me for who I am, flaws and all." Nothing has been the same since.

Today, just a few years later, his radio show can be heard across the country on over 400 stations, his television show sets ratings records, his books reach the top of bestseller lists and he travels across the country performing his live stage show to sold-out audiences. Across all of these mediums, Beck connects with his fans in a whole new way, inspiring and entertaining them with his humor, hard-hitting interviews and honest tales about his life.

Is this new, ‘HORRIFYING’ curriculum taught in YOUR kid’s school?

There are new curriculum standards being implemented into schools throughout the nation for health classes that not only go far beyond what's appropriate for young children, but are entrenched in clear political biases, too. Under the standards, third-graders are taught about hormone blockers and endless gender identities, and topics get shockingly graphic for kids as young as 11. Some schools are even teaching their teachers and kids to ignore what parents have to say about these topics. And the worst part may be that many parents are completely unaware what their children are being taught.

Tina Descovich, co-founder of Moms for Liberty, joined "The Glenn Beck Program" to explain exactly what you can ask at your next school board meeting to ensure this "horrifying" curriculum isn't being taught in your kid's school.

Glenn Beck: Did you hear Biden's Great Reset WARNING SHOT to Banks?

It should come as no surprise that a newsworthy story receives more media coverage when released on a Monday than a Friday. The reason is in part due to a large number of news-consuming Americans checking out for the week to focus on their weekend plans rather than the news.

On Monday's radio program, Glenn Beck shared information that President Joe Biden decided to release on Friday — when fewer people would notice — regarding the Climate Finance report. This report is marketed to Americans as "A Roadmap To Build a Climate-Resilient Economy." But Glenn believes the report to be Biden's Great Reset warning shot to banks.

In this clip, Glenn warned that if Americans don't stand together, in eight years we all indeed will own nothing. Watch the clip for the full story. Can't watch? Download the podcast here.

Bill O'Reilly: Mark Zuckerberg spent $419.5 million to influence the 2020 election

On today's radio program, Glenn Beck was joined by Bill O'Reilly to discuss the top stories of the week.

For O'Reilly, the biggest story this week centered around someone mysteriously missing from mainstream media news reports today: Mark Zuckerberg. Specifically, O'Reilly said it's the 'scandalous' way the Facebook CEO spent nearly $420 million to influence the 2020 election — and did so successfully.

INSANITY: High schooler ARRESTED after not wearing mask at school tells her story

On Thursday's radio program, Grace Smith and her father, Andy, joined Glenn Beck on the phone and provided a first-hand account of Grace's refusal to wear a mask at school.

Smith, 16, began a maskless protest after her school district in Laramie, Wyoming, decided to implement a mask mandate. As a result, Grace received three suspensions, was issued two $500-citations, and was eventually arrested.

"How long were you in jail?" Glenn asked.

Grace said was taken to jail but was never booked nor was she was placed in a jail cell.

Glenn commended Grace's father, Andy, for raising such a "great citizen" and asked if it was Grace's idea to protest. Andy said it was Grace's idea, explaining that they took the position of arguing on the grounds of civil rights rather than the efficacy of wearing a mask.

Grace has since withdrawn from public school and started a home school program. She also told Glenn that she will continue to fight the school district, legally.
