He was fired from Fox "News." I thought he has since been self-employed. Who will fire him?

Although, it would be nice to see all his syndicators dump him.

.

FCC should have some control over satellite radio. Our tax dollars is beaming the signal to earth.

Are you f***ing serious? You want rich old white-men Washington douche bags setting the rules for satellite radio content?

That is the day I cancel my subscription.

And this little stunt is a good indication that we have stopped.

He should never have been hired in the first place

Ignore him.

He's got to be treated like a 3 year old having tantrums that he is. Don't encourage him by even paying attention.

That aside, a jar of urine? Is he trying to create his own version of "Piss Christ"?

Perhaps the better question is fire him from where? He is now down to working for himself, since Faux did fire him last year sometime.

But no, I wouldn't fire him, I wouldn't fire anybody exercising their right to free speech.

If he's working for someone, the First Amendment doesn't apply to speech related to his work. It doesn't apply on DU, either.

Constitution 101.

Thus, as MadHound said, he was just exercising his right to free speech.

And MadHound said he would not fire someone for doing that (implying that he legally could).

Thanks for clarifying that for me...

sweep up strawmen!

As MM pointed out, the first amendment protects you from prosecution. If I were to approach one of my co-eds and say, "My, you are gorgeous. Please come into my office and have sex with me", I would be fired in the time it took to get security to my office. OTOH as long as she is of age I can't be prosecuted for my lechery. Hank Williams II got fired from MNF for telling the president, "You're not one of us - get the hell out of the country". He cannot be prosecuted for that. And so on.

anything about prosecution?

the 1st protects citizens from prosecution

MadHound didn't even imply that the person was under any threat of prosecution.

I'd just assign him to clean the latrines once an hour and never let him speak another word on my dime. I'd give him the option of quitting.

"I wouldn't fire anybody exercising their right to free speech..."

If their "right to free speech and expression" negatively affected my networks ratings, I certainly would.

and who does she think is Beck's employer?

It's free speech, but as Keith always pointed out, that doesn't always apply to the private sector.

AND it just makes people realize that people on the right are crazy. That's simplified, but it's the same as lumping all those to the left as communiss. No nuance for many people.

Into a vat of elephant crap. I'd be for that.

What's he gonna have to do to get it tomorrow?

but the Dixie Chicks crossed a line?

#1) Parody of the Piss Christ thing the wingnuts are still up in arms over after what, more than two decades?

#2) Beck works for himself. So he's going to fire himself? Fox fired him ages ago.

Is the office more sacred at some times than others?

Fuck Glenn Beck and Michael Moore.

You sure it shouldn't be fried?

I think Beck buys his time. Sponsors foot the bill.

Beck says outlandish things. And it appeals to some people. I don't see how you could prevent this without severe restrictions on rights.

And there s this pesky first amendment...

nonsense he wants. He was looking for Democrats to get all outraged and call for censoring beck - that's what he's looking for. Ignore the fool or broadcast this story everywhere - he loses either way.

by dropping a bobble-head toy in it?

Once word got around he tried to claim it was beer. It obvious from the pictures that it isn't beer. There is no carbonation. Now he is trying to claim it is colored water.

He can't get his story straight because he was caught playing with his urine.

that involve glenn playing with his own "pee pee"

feed him to a herd of feral cats!

He may just fire himself one day.

(But I'm actually enjoying watching him come unhinged)

Is that it gives complete fucking idiots a wonderful incentive to demonstrate their complete fucking idiocy.

There's a long American tradition of defiling the flag and the president. Beck takes it to a disgusting low, but he's a free voice (free of reason anyway) in a free country. The First Amendment belongs to douchebags too.

shut away in a padded cell in an institution. The Beckster is certifiable and a menace to our society. But then, that describes a hell of a lot of other Repubs, doesn't it.

recently i happened on one of his rallies televised on the supposed christian tv station the comes with the cable package

full house

some fricken stadium

added a couple singers and he looked like a billy graham

He eliminated a bunch of middle men and now controls his own little network
heard he is making more money not less

i found it hard to believe--but that filled stadium gave me pause.

and this little stunt he just pulled will make him even richer

Fry: What if I refuse?
Leela: Then you'll be fired...
Fry: Fine!
Leela: ...out of a cannon into the Sun!

He was caught playing with his pee.
