More than 10,000 people have signed an American Jewish organisation's petition calling on Rupert Murdoch to fire controversial pundit Glenn Beck because of his "grotesque falsehoods" about Jews.

Jewish Funds for Justice (JFSJ) launched the petition following the showing of Mr Beck's recent three-part series "Puppet Master" on Fox News. The channel is part of Mr Murdoch's media empire.

On the programme Mr Beck attacked Jewish businessman George Soros' Holocaust record and accused him of helping "to send the Jews to the death camps".

He also suggested Mr Soros was a "puppet master...at the centre" of the economic crisis and made the comment in front of a picture of a star or David.

JFSJ said Mr Beck seemed "to draw his material straight from the antisemitic forgery, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion".

The group also criticised a programme earlier this month in which Mr Beck examined the nine public figures of the last century who created "the era of the big lie". The list included Jewish psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud and Jewish writer Walter Lippman.

The JFSJ president, Simon Greer, said: "We find it hard to believe that it was only coincidence that eight of the nine individuals on his list alleging a shadowy alliance to control the Americans through propaganda were Jewish."

It's just another isolated incident...

Beck has been making grotesque statements about Soros for a while.  There are some grounds to complain against Soros, especially if you are a Republican (his political advocacy and bankrolling) or British (Black Wednesday).  However, Beck's focus seems worryingly based on his background, not his activities. 

For those wondering about the Holocaust thing, there is a small kernel of truth to it.  Soros was forcibly made to work for the Hungarian Jewish Council, a Nazi-established group, from age 13.  He was made to give out deportation notices to Jewish families...though according to his own testimony he asked his father what he should do, and was told to warn the Jewish lawyers he was handing notices out to if they reported to the meetings they were told to, they would be forcibly deported.  He also once inventoried a house left by a Jewish family which had fled the country. 

Adolf Eichmann he is not.

This. And 5 minutes of research will find it. Beck isn't interested in truth, he is interested in ratings and forwarding the agenda of the right.

Thank you.  I'm glad someone mentioned it.  He's just an evil version of PT Barnum.  He does shit like this for exactly the kind of attention he's getting.

I'd also just like to mention that if Beck paid any attention to the news, he'd know, for certain, that BoA and Goldman Sachs (among others), were at the centre of the financial crisis, since they were the ones telling their sucker clients that the CDOs and shit were perfectly safe, while telling their other clients that the whole market was going to blow soon and to bet against them.  And we have emails, testimony etc to this effect.

But no, obviously the Evil Foreign Jewish Financier Bankrolling Communists Progressives must be the guilty party.
