New SNL skit makes fun of Glenn Beck

Last night, Saturday Night Live's (SNL) Weekend Update touched on President Obama's decision over the weekend to exclude Fox News in his media tour.  Obama granted interviews to ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN, but left Fox News off the list.  SNL also touched on one of the reasons President Obama may have skipped Fox on his media tour…Glenn Beck.

Glenn Beck has been under fire lately because he called Obama a racist, and many of his advertisers were forced to pull advertising from his show.  Most recently Glenn Beck has been in the press for: his attempt to let people think he boiled a frog, the Tea Party March 9/12 in Washington DC, and his battle with Mika Brzezinski.  For more on any of these Glenn Beck stories, just click on one of the the links above.

SNL took on specific aspects of Glenn's character: Beck's ability to misspell words, that muppet voice he likes to use, and his Hitler character.

In Utah, the Glenn Beck show can be seen on Fox News at 3 pm, or any of his shows can be viewed on The Glenn Beck Show website

    Glenn Beck is awesome.
    He is leading the revolution.
    And this one is being televised.

    The Left would never dare mock Dear Leader, or portray him in any negative light, so they do what leftists do best, follow their disciple Saul Alinksy.

    Beck must be getting to them. Does anybody watch SNL anymore?

    Glenn Beck is already a joke and his daily show draws more unintentional laughs (and ridicule) than SNL has in years . SNL Making a parody of him is redundant.
