I am writing because I feel that Glenn Beck is saying things about President Barack Obama that are dividing the country and are untrue.

Beck has said on Fox (cable channel) News that Obama is racist. And recently, as I was changing the channels, I saw him with a chalk board writing things such as Marxism and socialist on it. I feel he is using hateful rhetoric that is designed to play on people’s fears. He was using the ACORN situation as his example and tying to make it look as if Obama is using every part of the government to spread his thoughts and beliefs, and that is bad for America. If major companies do not want to be associated with Beck, I would say that must prove something.

That the country is so divided is very sad. It was also divided when President George W. Bush was in the White House. But Beck has been attacking Obama ever since Obama got in the White House and I think it is time Fox takes Beck off the air. If all Fox officials care about is their ratings, then they are disgraceful, right along with Beck.
