Beck and Hannity: How Many Deaths Linked to ACORN? How About Blackwater?

The hypocrisy goes on and on and on when it comes to right wing Fox propaganda zealots Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity.

With so much focus being registered on ACORN by Rupert Murdoch's dynamic duo it should be asked: How many deaths have been caused by ACORN? How much federal funding has ACORN received? How about directing those same questions regarding Blackwater, Halliburton, and Kellogg, Brown, and Root?

Eric Burns, president of Media Matters, on September 24 delivered a release revealing the results of that organization's effort to uncover answers to those foregoing questions. The results speak volumes.

...............

Beck and Hannity ran wild any time any story surfaced about ACORN even when accusations were unproven. Conversely, when cases of massive corruption and even death were involved there was scarcely any mention of involved individuals and organizations.

2. This is what bothers me about this issue.
Where are the victims? The Catholic Church has hundreds if not thousands of child sexual exploitation victims. Do you hear anybody calling for the removal of their tax exempt status or defunding them? No! But they have real victims. Not made up, pretend victims.
