Glenn Beck

I don't know if many people over here in the UK have heard of Glenn Beck. He is a nutcase right wing conspiracy-obsessed Fox news presenter who has recently been given the sack. Thank Christ for that. Here is John Stewart on the Daily Show (sadly no longer available on More4) royally taking the piss out of Beck's overly-dramatic buddy buddy presenting style and generally applauding his departure from the network.

Indeed. Here for good measure is a clip from Charlie Brooker's Newswipe in which (from ~6:30 mins) he deconstructs Beck's messianic style.



Good riddance.
