CNN’s Glenn Beck Describes Himself As ‘Mr. Oreo Cookie’ On Martin Luther King Day

Yesterday, CNN Headline News anchor Glenn Beck began his program with a commentary about the Duke lacrosse rape case. On Martin Luther King Day, Beck described the media’s treatment of the Duke players as “a lynching without the rope.” He then gestured to himself and said, “for the first time in my life, Mr. Oreo Cookie — without the chocolate on the outside — can understand why people celebrated when O.J. Simpson was acquitted.”

Using the term “Oreo cookie” in reference to African-Americans “signifies a racial slur for being black on the outside and white on the inside.”

Watch it:

Despite his long record of inflammatory remarks, Beck was recently hired by ABC’s Good Morning America as a “regular commentator.” GMA senior executive producer Jim Murphy told the AP, “Glenn is a leading cultural commentator with a distinct voice.”

Digg It!

Full transcript:

What happened to the Duke lacrosse team was practically a lynching without the rope. And for the first time in my life, Mr. Oreo Cookie without the chocolate on the outside can understand why people celebrated when O.J. Simpson was acquitted.

    I hear this guy used to be a comedian, ha ha. Really funny. /sarcasm


  2. Juan C says:

  3. Antiprogress says:

    Rock on Mr. Beck!!!


  4. tarazan says:

    This man hides his inner hate with a smile…he thinks people cannot dectict that..CNN is going low by keeping this man on their network.


  5. tom baker says:

    Beck is a hysterical, inarticulate ninny. He makes Limbaugh sound intelligent. He makes Hannity sound thoughtful. Hopefully, some of his college buddies will do an intervention, and demand he seek treatment for being a shrieking pussy. GMA was already and insult to Americans’ intelligence, so why try and dumb the show down further by adding Beck?


  6. Technodaoist says:

    Glenn Beck was, is, and continues to be a narrow-minded racist.

    I love it when people don’t listen to the words they are saying…

    Me, I’m one of those ‘grasshopper’ oreo’s. Martian on the inside.

    /just an example of how stupid and ignorant racist statements are
    //makes just as much sense


  7. RUCerious says:

    Perhaps he should have described hisself as Mr. FigLeaf Newton.


  8. tom baker says:

    …”an insult” – last post – damn! i wish i could edit those once they were posted…..


  9. RUCerious says:

    I keep seeing this image of Ann Coultergeist going into a revolving mirror and Glenn Beck coming out the other side.


  10. tom baker says:

    he’s not an oreo, but he is a twink…….(ie)


  11. TZone says:

    Why on earth did CNN hire this idiot?


  12. pgw says:

    seriously. wtf? what he said didn’t even make sense.
    no one on staff, before or after he said that, thought that this might have been an odd, let alone inflammatory, thing to say?


  13. Liz says:

    Please, please tell me this is a live show and therefore not a case of a bunch of editors and producers doing nothing while an anchor makes a remark that is not only racist but completely non-sensical. I’m not even sure what he was TRYING to say.


  14. Kay says:

    Maybe this rascist s.o.b. can take it on the road with Michael Richards and hung by their b—-s.


  15. -jay- says:

    Beck is one of an apparent legion of loud-mouthed, stupid, “opinionators” that do the job of keeping up the entertainment level of the “news.” What’s really sad is that such a dumb shit can make so much money doing it.


  16. BT says:

    Frankly, I think you’re all making way too much of this. It’d be one thing if he referred to some black person as an Oreo; that would be an insult. By calling attention to the fact that he is an all-white Oreo, he’s admitting he has no insight into the black experience. Maybe not the most erudite way of putting it, but nothing to get all heebie-jeebie about.


  17. the liberal press says:

    Glenn Beck is extremely goofy looking, but I guess that’s how you have to look in order to be taken seriously by neocons.

    “Mr. Oreo Cookie — without the chocolate on the outside…” makes absolutely no sense no matter how tortured the logic.

    Because he understands “why people celebrated when O.J. Simpson was acquitted” he’s hoping that African Americans will believe that he is Mr. Cool and start listening to him so he can start telling them what to think.

    What a total asshat.


  18. big papa says:

    What’s all the fuss about…

    …this inbred troglodyte Glen Beck REPRESENTS the majority culture in America…

    …PERFECTLY…

    …He IS the personification of Jim Crow (never REALLY died)…

    …it just hibernates…


  19. Jebus loves me says:

    It’s time for CNN to cut their losses with this idiot.

    He’s just as bad as Rush/Hannity/Savage/etc


  20. Zimzone says:

    Glenn Blech is the same assclown who asked Rep. Ellison why he should trust him & to verify he’s not a terroist.
    Mr. Blech, you’re the terrorist. Anyone who smears fear as a daily practice is right up there with Limpalls & Insannity.
    You’re not news, you’re a talking schill.
    Remember that…a talking, paid schill.


  21. Rebel In CA says:

    “…for the first time in my life, Mr. Oreo Cookie — without the chocolate on the outside…”

    Memo to GB:

    On your nex show don’t forget to wear the white sheet and the pointed hood.

    The good-ol-boy congressman Virgil Goode (R-VA) will be happy to lend you his extra one.


  22. tarazan says:

    CNN needs to get rid of this ‘Popcorn Cooker’ brain. He thinks he funny when he insults others and put a fake smile even a child can see it…at least Rush Limbaugh never tell you he is trying to be funny…this guy is worse than Limbaugh by showing his fake smiles wrapped up with hate.


  23. brie says:

    Holy god that’s offensive. Ironically, I think that was Beck’s stab at racial sensitivity.


  24. SouthWest Bob says:

    Having only seen this clown once on TV it was apparent that he uses the same techniques that all these biased “yet present themselves as neutral” commentators use. He makes a false statement then assumes that it is true and thus his position (argument) is true. It’s nice when there isn’t anyone to challenge his stupid assumptions, but then that would expose his lack of intelligence.

    It really doesn’t matter how many of these clowns the conservatives attempt to cram down our throats, the reality of their beliefs no longer connects with Americans and with GWB as their leader, it is obvious to the vast majority of Americans that these clowns are failures at running America.


  25. nanlichi says:

    Beck is a Mormon, their teachings include some gems like ,”Blacks are the spawn of Satan”, and “If a dark-skinned person shall convert to Mormonism, after a few generations their skin shall turn white and wholesome.”

    Sweet shit, eh?

    I was raised in the middle of a very predominantly Mormon area, and racism is rampant in their society.

    Strong Republicans too, no surprise there.


  26. Kevin says:

    If you think he is a raciest you are not really listening to him. Try it some time.


  27. candideinnc says:

    Bozo Beck should be treated like any infant with a potty mouth or temper tantrum. Ignore him and maybe he will go away.


  28. DeciderLiar says:

    Glenn Beck is an idiot; a complete waste of perfectly good air.


  29. bluefish says:

    “And for the first time in my life, Mr. Oreo Cookie without the chocolate on the outside . . .”

    You mean like a Vienna Finger, Glenn?

    Maybe Glenn should learn his cookies. Idiot.


  30. Jason M. Hendler says:

    Why doesn’t this site ever talk about Barack Obama, especially after his stellar performance as Del in the Crying Game?


  31. pgl says:

    You would think CNN would not have made the Tucker Carlson mistake a 2nd time. Then again – I’m being unfair to Mr. Bowtie by comparing him to Glenn Beck.


  32. Sharon Cox says:

    Did watch beck show once……Not funny, not cute, just another bloated faced no neck,reich winged bigot spouting extreme reich winged christian thought’s…Lousy show, no content of value…..I thought he was a ding dong…….Blessings


  33. Seitz says:

    Oreo Cookie without the chocolate on the outside means he’s just really really white, right?


  34. jw says:

    It used to be that we laughed at characters like Archie Bunker. Now, they’re commenters on GMA.

    Ahhh. Maybe little Glenn growing up never realized Archie was a caricature to be ridiculed, not a role model.


  35. S.D. says:

    Wow, the jokes just write themselves when he acts like that…

    Nice Hand gestures!



  36. Jeremy Henderson says:

    I’d say he’s more like a colostomy bag. Without the bag.


  37. Larry from C says:

    I now refer to CNN as the Glenn Beck Network. I use this term only. If we all use it CNN will begin to feel the heat as Beck digs himself deeper and deeper.

    The Most Trusted Name in News? NO!

    Its the Glenn Beck Network! YES!


  38. Glenn Becker says:

    I would give up the part of my name that I share with this Zinjanthropus, but “er” doesn’t have much of a ring to it.


  39. er says:

    Ah, to hell with it.


  40. Marie says:

    CNN was stupid to hire this cretin, and ABC has followed their dubious lead.
    Fill their mailboxes.


  41. big papa says:

    CNN needs to get rid of this ‘Popcorn Cooker’ brain.

    Comment by tarazan #22

    tarazan,

    The fact that they don’t get rid of him…

    …even more importantly that they hired him in the first place KNOWING his racist, sexist, homophobic conned’self-servative leanings…

    …speaks volumes about CNN (Time-Warner/Disney/ABC’s…msm’s) business model…

    …to be ALL things to ALL people no matter who gets trampled on…

    …as long as they make a buck…


  42. Bluestocking says:

    For Beck to use the phrase “Oreo cookie” on the day when we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was in astoundingly bad taste — but if anything, Beck made himself look a fool and showed himself to be not merely a boor but an ignorant boor.


  43. er says:

    “if anything, Beck made himself look a fool and showed himself to be not merely a boor but an ignorant boor.”

    So when is he announcing his candidacy for ‘08?

    Sounds like someone a whole buncha people might not mind having a beer with!


  44. hil says:

    #42 LOL!!!
    sorry about that Er


  45. Theo says:

    I love that there’s a right-wing troll out there who actually referred to himself as “Antiprogress”.

    That is the definition of a conservative, no?


  46. er says:

    “That is the definition of a conservative, no?”

    Yes. And the thing that makes me want to start gibbering and do nothing but watch Spongebob reruns for the rest of my life is: THEY’RE PROUD OF THAT.

    Ignorance is Strength.


  47. Navy Vet says:

    If you all think Beck is loony you should tune into Nancy Grace in your face sometime.


  48. dlet says:

    Navy Vet,
    No thanks. Nancy has the guilty until proven innocent that seems to be pervading our society and embraced at the top. Pathetic does not begin to describe her. With all this garbage throwing on TV news wouldn’t it be interesting to actually see a news channel dig deep into the seedy underworld of US politics. That woould be the most interesting show on TV and probably get ratings through the roof. Kinda like COPS on DC. Cameras bouncing as they run down politicians and corner them with hard questions…..


  49. michael says:

    “Glenn Beck was, is, and continues to be a narrow-minded racist.”

    Care to elaborate on that comment?


  50. michael says:

    “Beck is one of an apparent legion of loud-mouthed, stupid, “opinionators”

    Care to provide an example or two?


  51. er says:

    “Care to provide an example or two?”

    You didn’t ask me, but I am happy to answer.

    1. Bill O’Reilly
    2. Rush Limbaugh
    3. Ann Coulter
    4. Michelle Malkin

    Well, that’s four, of course, but I aim to please.


  52. Chris from Maine says:

    im the my two sense guy..

    he mentioned lynching 4 times in total, as well as the oreo cookie nonsense.

    tonights show should be worse, beck will talk about muslim interment camps.

    stay tuned to achorn.blogspot.com


  53. er says:

    michael,

    Just an elaboration. I know you didn’t ask for one, but what the heck, I am anticipating.

    It’s often repeated, ad nauseam, that “progs” dislike people of this sort because they “have our number.”

    I assure you that that is not the case with me.

    The four people I listed do not I repeat not strike any sort of terror into my quaking, liberal, cut-and-run soul … unless you count the sort of alarmed bark I might emit when contemplating the facts that 1) someone gave these people jobs in the first place, and that 2. anyone thinks they are worth listening to.

    It is really more a taste issue, I guess. I am the sort of snob who wrinkles his nose at the sight of dog doo on the sidewalk in front of me, and at the thoughtlessness of the person who allowed it to plop down.


  54. michael says:

    “Care to provide an example or two?”

    And none of you provided me with anything but more examples of your dislike for the man. He may come across as offensive to some of you but of all the commentators on tv he has the best understanding about what is going on in the Middle East and the disastrous things that might happen if we continue to ignore them.

    And when I asked for an example or two I wasn’t asking for you to provide others who you think might fit into the same category but rather examples of why you think he is loud-mouthed and stupid? Stupid he is not. Loud, probably.


  55. ongre says:

    Where on earth do they get the idea that he “is a leading cultural commentator”?


  56. michael says:

    “Where on earth do they get the idea that he “is a leading cultural commentator”?

    Why is he not?


  57. michael says:

    “Using the term “Oreo cookie” in reference to African-Americans”

    He wasn’t referring to blacks, he was referring to himself!


  58. er says:

    michael,

    “none of you provided me with anything but more examples of your dislike for the man.”

    What sort of examples were you seeking? You asked for examples of “loud-mouthed, stupid opinionators.”

    I gave you four. Your question was answered. If I did not answer /the other question you were actually thinking about/, that is your fault.


  59. er says:

    michael,

    “when I asked for an example or two I wasn’t asking for you to provide others who you think might fit into the same category but rather examples of why you think he is loud-mouthed and stupid?”

    Then your request was poorly written.

    If you are really interested in examples, try the “long record of inflammatory remarks” link in the article we are discussing, for a start.


  60. michael says:

    “If you are really interested in examples, try the “long record of inflammatory remarks” link in the article we are discussing, for a start.”

    Ok, now we are getting somewhere. He said Kennedy is lying to us and he was correct. Kennedy doesn’t want this war associated with the dems. It’s really quite simple here, cut off the funding. You know what? They don’t have the nerve!


  61. er says:

    michael,

    So what it comes down to is – you like Beck. I don’t like Beck. So who cares and so what?


  62. michael says:

    “So what it comes down to is – you like Beck. I don’t like Beck. So who cares and so what?”

    Yes you are correct, I do like Beck. As he says, he’s a thinker and so am I. We don’t live in a world full of rhetoric like most of you do.


  63. michael says:

    “If you think he is a raciest you are not really listening to him. Try it some time.”

    Don’t hold your breath, they HATE facts!


  64. michael says:

    “Glenn Beck is an idiot; a complete waste of perfectly good air.”

    Can you tell us why you feel that way? Come on people? Stop with the name calling and rhetoric. If you are going to accuse someone of being an idiot back it up with something. Otherwise, don’t expect to be taken seriously.


  65. er says:

    michael,

    “Yes you are correct, I do like Beck. As he says, he’s a thinker and so am I. We don’t live in a world full of rhetoric like most of you do.”

    I disagree (except for the part about my being correct), but you knew that.

    I also cannot help but notice that while I am trying to walk away from this and say “de gustibus” like the good-natured soul I am, you can’t help but keep trying to stir things up. Why is that? That’s a rhetorical question.


  66. Jason M. Hendler says:

    Why doesn’t this site ever talk about Barack Obama, especially after his stellar performance as Del in the Crying Game?


  67. Zooey says:

    Why does anyone watch or listen to this giant well-scrubbed baby?

    #42 – Yeah, all that is absolutely true. You’re next…


  68. Karim says:

    ABC needs to take action against this.


  69. michael says:

    “you can’t help but keep trying to stir things up. Why is that?”

    Not true, I’m just challenging the rhetoric that is so common here but I get so few answers.


  70. careful now says:

    I WOULDNT WANT THIS LITTLE TIDBIT TO GET BURIED AWAY

    LETS BRING IT TO THE FRONT NICE AND OPEN AND TRANSPARENT LIKE

    TP, Fellow commentors,

    I am gone until TP gets some control of their site.

    It’s been real and it’s been educational.

    PEACE

    Comment by robert — January 16, 2007 @ 12:48 pm

    INTERESTING,
    Upon further review, Rachel might be onto something. Robert SURE DID LEAVE suddenly when outed. Hmmm. And while he may not have been successful in hacking the site, he sure could be guilty of trying to.
    Ouch. I hope it was worth it, Robert (another dumbass in the military is NOT WHAT WE NEED).

    Also note how Robert keeps posting a *test*

    Why would a person who is on the up and up need to keep doing that ?

    Unless they were banned and hacked their way back in ?

    Why come back to defend yourself? Unless YOU ARE GUILTY.

    Adios, mo-fo.

    i am saying trueblue Zooey and Robert devised a plan that routes al;l of TPs traffic to Robert

    He then parses and picks what stays and what goes

    If you are an enemy of Roberts your post wont stay around long

    He deleted my post here on this thread earlier

    Think Progress did not do it

    I emailed them and asked them that question

    Their response ?

    *No we did not sir*

    Comment by whistleblower — January 16, 2007 @ 6:34 pm

    Robert , You do remember the * Zooey approved plan * do you not ?

    Base Commander or State Ombudsman ?

    Your career is on the line sport

    And I hold the keys

    Question is …. Do I use them or not ?

    you cannot just hack into tps server robert
    this is criminal activity

    Sorry, I do not have the ability to hack anyones server, but I guess maybe I did strike a nerve.

    i am sure the military would be none too happy.

    And, again, personal time, personal equipment.

    this kind of thing just happens to be the catalyst that gets asswarmers like you off their fat asses and into a real shooting war

    you get my drift boy ?

    Been there, done that. Twice

    i am still debating on whether to call your base commander first or my state ombudsman

    Whatever.

    TP THIS ALSO EXPLAINS WHY YOU HAVE BEEN HAVING SERVER TROUBLES WHICH IN TURN MAKES POSTS APPEAR AND DISAPPEAR

    ROBERT CAN BAN WHATEVER COMMENTS HE WISHES AND KEEPS THOSE HE SEES FIT TO STAY

    ROBERT IS AT THE CONTROLS

    AND ZOOEY AND UNBELIEVABLE ARE HELPING HIM OR HAVE FULL KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT HE IS DOING

    LETS JUST SAY THEY ARE NOT EXACTLY STOPPING HIM

    THEY ARE THEN COMPLICIT

    IT IS NOT THE TP SERVER AND ITS SOFTWARE AFTER ALL

    IT IS ROBERT WITH HIS ACCOMPLICES PLAYING SHADY DICE WITH THE SERVER

    TP ?

    YOU NEED TO INVESTIGATE

    I AM EMAILING ROBERTS BASE COMMANDER AND MY STATE OMBUDSMAN AS SOON AS I AM DONE HERE

    AGAIN ROBERT CONTROLS YOUR SERVER

    HE CALLS THE SHOTS AS TO TRAFFIC INTERFERENCE AS WELL AS INVOLUNTARY DELETION BECAUSE HE JUST HASNT FIGURED OUT A WORKAROUND FOR THE DELETION PROBLEM YET

    THIS IS WHY SOME CAN POST AND OTHERS CANNOT

    WHENEVER HE TRIES TO BLOCK OR DELETE A POST ? EVERYONE ELSES GOES ALONG WITH IT DOWN THE CRAPPER

    PERSONALLY I DONT THINK HE IS SMART ENOUGH TO FIGURE THAT PART OF IT OUT

    heh

    I thought you would remember now

    You really ought to be more careful when laying plans such as those in a public forum

    “To them * stirring things up * means they may have to actually PROVE the jibberish they write and post here”

    I agree 100%! It’s the same with most liberal blogs which I have been banned from because I have the nerve to challenge their dopey comments. Someone has to keep them honest!


  72. miles says:

    What does that even MEAN? What is an Oreo Cookie without the chocolate?


  73. eNJA says:

    He belongs in the house of idiots with O’Reilly, Limbaugh, and the other right wing nut bags.

    You must get awfully tired doing all that cutting and pasting. What are you really, a trust-fund baby? ‘Cause we all work, yet you can be found posting here under any one of, what? thirty names, not counting the ones you steal, any time day or night. For what? Do you think this is going to drive us away? I’ve been here for over three years, and have seen many trolls come and go. I’ll still be here, after you’ve decided on some more important target, and so will the others. We have the patience to wait you out. We waited for six years to resume control, and we’ve got a mission to restore this country to the America we once knew and still love.

    And I’m still Barfly.


  75. Travis says:

    Glenn is not a racist, he’s a food addict.
    Anybody that listens to the show know he loves his food.
    If you watched more than itty-bitty clips you’d know that.

    Besides that, I’ve never heard of “Oreos” as a racial term before. Never even crossed my mind until this thread came up in a google search for cookies. Odds are that there are many people just like me that think Oreos are just cookies.


  76. Wheeler says:

    I am amazed that some people are still convinced that the stripper in the Duke “rape” case is telling the truth. They think that her story of being threatened with a broom handle is the reason for no DNA evidence. I think her story would be more believable if she had claimed she was threatened with a black hoe handle.


  77. Jeremie Jordan says:

    What a bunch of whiny liberals…

    The only reason this is a big deal is because Glenn Beck is a popular conservative host, if he was on Air America you would all be proclaiming the Oreo reference the funniest thing you have ever heard…

    My take on Beck’s statement:

    The Corn Beltway Boys


  78. tom baker says:

    WOW – who are the hysterical ninnies who would rise to the defense of a cancer-turd like Beck!??!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!!?/

  80. destardi says:

    glenn beck is a moron, a reactionary fool, but other than that, to say that “oreo” is a slur, I don’t think that’s quite true. I’ve been involved with people who are black, who laugh at the term, and apply it to themselves.


  81. The Mel Man says:

    Poor Glenn Beck. It must be breaking his heart to hear all you mental giants slam on him.

    Just last night he pulled his armored truck up to the bank to deposit the pile of money he made that day from his millions of listeners, and he had to ask a passerby for help to find the key to unlock the door to the vault. He just couldn’t see through his tears.

    How impotent you must feel. You’re so freaking brilliant and all you can do is rave on a web site about how we shouldn’t tolerate people whose viewpoint differs from yours because those people are intolerant. “Off with his head . . . in the name of free speech, you know.”

    I used to really like Glenn Beck. Now that the liberals are stepping up to attack him I want to have his baby. You can’t serve God without offending the devil — oh, crap, I just mentioned God in front of a bunch of liberals. Good thing you guys are such advocates of tolerance!


  82. pdarnold says:

    It’s nice to see how effectively you lefties exhibit the “tolerance” that you demand other show to you.

    You people are the most intolerant among us. You won’t tolerate what is on TV (FNC or anything remotely right of center), you won’t tolerate where I work (for an airline that pollutes the air everyday), you won’t tolerate what others drive (SUV’s), you won’t tolerate dissent on global warming because anyone who does is immediately ripped to shreds, and finally you won’t even tolerate what I f@cking EAT (transfats or meat in general)

    Then you go around calling everyone who doesn’t agree with you a fascist. You hide behind what you believe are morally superior beliefs and use them as a cover to demonize others without end or remorse because you think you’re on the right side. Well, that’s not tolerance.

    Usually, the first people to start screaming fascism are the fascists themselves.


  83. Super G says:

    You ‘tolerants’!!!!!!

    why so much hate for such a funny, smart (and cute) guy? Why does it bother you so much when somebody outside your circle of ‘thinking’ expresses himself? It bothers that people listen. ah?

    isn’t it better for CNN to actually have different views, doesn’t it make it more balanced? ooops, fair and balanced is not CNN though ;-)

    Come on you liberals!!!! cheer up a little. Glenn is a very funny guy who speaks truths as big as Texas.

    hey, instead of spreading so much hate against him, why don’t you support a lefty on the radio? you know the most listened to shows on the radio are all conservative, right?

    see you Air America!

    Don’t be upset! actually, watch Glenn more and may find a sense of humor.

    CHEER UP!!!!!


  84. Anthony, PA is a purple state says:

    WWWooowww. This is the most clueless blog site ever. Conservative Democrats take note.


  85. DD, Wa says:

    All he ment is that he is pastey white and he has an obession with cookies, it’s self effacing humor. He is also admitting that he is not a black culture insider. Do you really think that it is promoting whites over blacks to compare yourself to the unsported frosting of a sugary treat? Get a grip.


  86. ndk says:

    What is with the camera movement’s on the Glenn Beck show? They are constantly moving to follow his big head. I notice symptoms of vertigo after watching the show for a while… his head and trunk keep bobbing sideways while the background set is moving…and I don’t drink. This character should dress up like a clown and do his show that way.
