Stormfront Promotes Deleted Glenn Beck White Power Twitter Fave

The uproar over a tweet from a White Power message board that showed up in Glenn Beck’s Twitter favorites continues, as the New York Times of White Power, Stormfront (whose founder is named Don Black), is now promoting the story on its website and Twitter feed, claiming “Glenn Beck Supports White Nationalists On Twitter.”

The site that originally sent the tweet, meanwhile, has published a blog entry that expands on the statement they gave Mediaite, while opining that Beck would make a “pretty poor White Nationalist.” Several Stormfront members appear to agree.

The website StopBeck.com was first to publicize the fact that a tweet from White Nationalist message board Malevolent Freedom appeared at the top of Beck’s Twitter favorites (all of which were later deleted). It spread to other sites, before Keith Olbermann highlighted the story on Countdown.

Stormfront added its own headline to the post that started it all, but did not directly accuse Beck of supporting White Nationalism. Upon making that leap, Stormfront’s members reacted in revoltingly predictable fashion, wondering if Beck has an “Illegal Mexican wife,” and when another member disagreed by posting a Beck family photo, one of them commented, “His wife looks like a hook nose to me.”

Malevolent Freedom, meanwhile, offered its own defense of Beck, capped with the best defense of all – a repudiation of Beck:

I can't say I'm surprised.

you'd think that he'd be thrilled making that public information. :shrug:

It has become an article of faith among the reich wingers that Move On is some kind of fringe radical group that directly compared Bush to Hitler.* But this seems to be a much firmer ground kind of story, in that Mr. Beck affirmatively selected Malevolent Freedom as one of his Twitter Favorites. Maybe Glenn should do another exhaustive chalkboard presentation about his racist proclivities? Should be riveting TV, and right in the Fox wheelhouse for programming.

*The more boring factual story is that Move On sponsored a web contest soliciting ads. One of the entries, which wasn't considered in the contest, did indeed compare Bush to Hitler, and made a rather persuasive case. But of course, Move On neither generated nor endorsed the entry.

I wish one of the major networks would do a proper expose of what he's been up to.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Be careful what you wish for, Glenn. :rofl:

pass it on....:evilfrown: (is that against the rules?)
