Joe Madison Vs. Glenn Beck
On Friday, Glenn Beck (aka "The Silver Gopher") was a guest on the program of XM Radio talk show host Joe Madison (aka "The Black Eagle"). During the segment, the two went toe-to-toe on such topics as the civil rights movement, social justice, and Beck's outrageous 2009 comments in which he called President Obama a racist.
Through his appearances on MSNBC, Joe Madison has quickly become one of my favorite pundits. He's a strong progressive who doesn't let any BS slide. This is why I'd love to see him as a guest on Glenn Beck's programs and Fox "News" in general because Joe would have plenty of chances to shut the BS down!
Below is the clip of Glenn Beck's segment on The Madison Show:

Hi Malcolm,
I love listening to Joe when he's on MSNBC, he speaks the truth, we need more like him to stand up and fight the wingnuts! I hate to see any liberals go on Fox but I sure would love to see Joe go head to head with Beck, In fact I'd love to see him destroy the moron!
Sue: Thanks for stopping by. It would be great if MSNBC continues expanding their lineup and gives Joe a timeslot (possibly on the weekend). It would be better than all of those "Locked Up" documentaries they show.
I used to not like seeing liberal go on Fox either because the decked is stacked unfairly against them. However, if you get a liberal who can hold their own (like Jon Stewart or Michael Moore), it's a rare opportunity for the typical Fox viewer to hear facts and logic.
Beck is so FOS. I heard that his sponsors are dropping even as his viewership increases. The greatest irony is that Fox can't cancel him, but they are losing money by having him on.
Maybe this Madison could take over Sanchez' slot on CNN.
Tony: Glenn Beck is the typical blowhard. He'll spout off all sorts of wild BS. However, he cowers when confronted by a strong liberal. Whenever I watch Beck's show, it's either just him and his silly props or it's someone who agrees with his point of view.
I would love to see Joe Madison get Rick's timeslot. It would be even better if Fox News gave him a show. Outside of people like Shep Smith, it's rare for the average Fox viewer to hears from someone who knows what the hell they are talking about. Madison would fill a large void in that regard.
