Is the world going crazy or just me? HuffPo: Beck Defended Sherrod
Beck did wind up attacking the administration on his Fox News talk show, but not for the reason the White House may have expected. "She should not have been fired or forced to resign," the conservative commentator said, pointing out that Sherrod's side of the story was far more complex than initially reported. He even suggested that Sherrod should get her job back and joked about her getting a promotion.

6. Wow, I didn't know that , thanks for the heads-up...
did some 'googling' and found this little gem from him regarding his skills, Drudge and Arianna:

"And I was wandering, and I had nothing better to do than be there on day one of the Internet revolution, while I had other friends that were in law school or in medical school. Those guys couldn't afford to take the chance on the Internet; I couldn't not take the chance to be on the Internet. And meeting Matt Drudge very early on, and then hooking up with Arianna Huffington, pretty much the skill sets that I'm employing today are very much, you know, had been learned in being in their proximity.""

Explains a lot about the kind of articles the Huffington Post often has leading their website and why I don't go there anymore.

7. Beck apparently attacked Sherrod on his radio show.
I'm sure if she hadn't resigned so quickly he would have attacked her on his TV show too.

Beck always attacks - it's just the angle of attack that changes with the circumstances.
