Glenn Beck CPAC speech
Glenn Beck is angry. Beck is a right radial driver who has a television show on Fox News. Advertisers in his television program began leaving en masse after the civil rights group Color of Change ran a campaign urging a boycott of Beck, who had accused President Barack Obama’s “racist”. As Camapaña progressed, the attacks against Van Jones Beck increased. In March, Jones appointed Obama as a special adviser on ‘green jobs’. Four years ago, Jones had founded with colleagues Color of Change. Finally, after weeks of attacks by Beck, Jones resigned his position at the White House last Sunday.
On July 28, Beck said on the Fox News morning show “Fox & Friends”: “I think this president has shown again and again as a guy who has a deep hatred of white people or white culture, I do not know what it is. I think this guy is a racist. ”
This inspired colorofchange.org to launch its campaign of boycott, calling on advertisers to stop sponsoring the program Beck on Fox’s campaign had an impact, so much so that companies like Progressive Insurance, Geico and Procter & Gamble immediately withdrew its advertising program. Since then, more than 50 companies were added, including Best Buy, Capital One, CVS, Discover, GMAC Financial Services, HSBC, Mercedes-Benz, Travelocity, and Wal-Mart. Hes given a crazy speech to the CPAC conference.
Van Jones was listed by Time magazine in the list of 100 most influential people in the world in 2009. His book “The Green Collar Economy” (The green collar economy) was a bestseller in the country. Jones is a graduate of Yale Law School, but instead of going after the lucrative jobs that were available to him, he moved to San Francisco where he founded the organization Bay Area Police Watch (Observatorio Police Bay Gulf of Mexico ), a telephone helpline for victims of police brutality. He founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, based in Oakland, California, “a strategy and action center working for justice, opportunity and peace in urban America.” The center flourished, started to have more than 20 employees and created a strong history of struggle against police violence and juvenile incarceration, along with pioneering green jobs. The merger between racial and economic justice and environmental sustainability is the basis of Jones’ work.
Jones was on Democracy Now in October: “The clean energy revolution that would work literally millions of people, putting solar panels throughout the United States, conditioned building that does not leak so much energy and emit as much carbon, building wind farms , producing wind turbines. We say that could generate more jobs in Detroit, not through production of commercial vehicles that destroy the world, but by making wind turbines that help save the world. We believe it is possible to fight pollution and poverty simultaneously. ”
Beck said Jones was a former black nationalist and communist, who signed an application to request a congressional investigation into the events of 11 September and that he referred to Republicans as “idiots” in a conversation in February 2009 (Beck warned that in the conversation, Jones referred to himself using the same term). Jones apologized for the comment, which is more of what made George W. Bush when he referred to a recording of the New York Times reporter Adam Clymer, the same term in 2000.
Jones said Beck attacks constituted a “vicious campaign of slander, lies and distortions used to distract and divide”. Ben Jealous, President and CEO of the NAACP said on Democracy Now: “They took a difficult decision. And I talked with him for several days – Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, yesterday. He took a difficult decision because he believes the White House can actually do something, and saw that Fox had intended to make sure he was a distraction. ”
In response to Beck’s attack against Van Jones, the NAACP, wrote: “The only thing more appalling that the strike of Mr. Beck v. Van Jones is the fact that paying sponsors continue to make such comments offensive. Jealous When I asked if the NAACP supports companies like Wal-Mart to continue their boycott of the program, Beck, Jealous said “We certainly support choosing whom to support with their money. I mean, Glenn Beck is someone who told a girl seven years of age, to a seven-year-old black girl who’d buy a ticket to return to Africa, he needed to return to Africa. And then goes on to say that health care is the start of repairs. I mean This guy plays the race card every week. It makes it very aggressively, with much hatred.
Glenn Beck might have obtained an achievement, but also helped send Van Jones back to the ground where it can be much more effective: as a basic organizer, working for progressive change from outside government. And while there are groups like the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who are paying increasing attention to Beck, it is unlikely that the advertising boycott his program disappears.
