The latest episode of South Park pokes fun at Glenn Beck. Eric Cartman is given the job of reading the morning announcements, and uses his position as pundit to attack the class president, Wendy Testaberger, by asking important questions such as if she really is a slut.
Dances with Smurfs: South Park parody of Glenn Beck

When Cartman first started the 'talk radio' thing on the mic I thought they was doing a "Rush Limbaugh" parody. With Cartman being overweight and Rush being associated with his days being overweight. After that I could see the parody fit any talk show host including Beck, Hannity or any number of talk show hosts on both sides of the aisle. It was with Beck references (the logo, blackboard & weeping) that it beomes a Beck parody.
I think M&T should have kept it generic for a broader theme rather than go for the Beck factor. Another opportunity missed IMHO.
At least it was smurfs in lieu of crab people. ;-)

Nope, this is Glen Beck all the way. And here is what Glen Beck had to say:

Say what you will about Glenn Beck (and there's not much nice to say about him), he has a better sense of humor than Tom Cruise and Sean Penn.

Plus, he's one hell of a guitarist, he's amazing with an axe. My favorite album of his is "Blow by Blow" but they're all just fantastic.

I think you're getting confused with the late deaf guitarist Glenn Healey, who performed at Ronnie Scott's with the rock and blues legend Eric Olthwaite.

...Taken totally out of context, without any spoken emphasis, this statement makes Beck look more like a babbling idiiot to whom English was a fourth language after Ubbi-Dubbi.
