US Politics & Fun: Glenn Beck Foreshadowed...in the 1994 Comedy of "Kids in the Hall"

Glenn Beck, Fox TV's "commentator", the Canadian comedy Kids in the Hall, and US warnings of the Communist menaceĀ are three of my secret vices. I did not know, however, of their special connection until this week.

Dave Foley of Kids in the Hall in 1994:

I'm in total shock! Is this Glenn Beck video for real? Please give me some context, Scott. Tell me this wasn't serious? Save my weekend! :-)

I think Fox News is the most-watched cable news channel in the US. That should explain a lot.

Catherine,

The vast majority of Americans prefer LOCAL news networks.

Sorry - I wasn't trying to make a point about absolute figures, just that Fox NEWS was the most-watched cable news station in the US.
