Glenn Beck Comedy Tour

Fox's Glenn Beck announces comedy tour

By David Bauder, Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK — Glenn Beck, Fox News Channel's latest sensation, is taking a comedy show on the road for six live performances over six days during the first week of June.
Beck calls his act a "poor man's Seinfeld" and intends to mix topical humor with his modern-day reimagining of Thomas Paine's 1776 pamphlet Common Sense.

The radio and TV talk show host will start June 1 in Denver, then perform in theaters in Phoenix, San Diego, Kansas City, Houston and Richmond, Va., over the next five days, he said.

1. Like Seinfeld, Glenn Beck's show is about nothing.

2. This sounds like it was entirely conceived as a legal defense
regarding the guy in Pittsburgh (and future 9/12-ers) who he's incited to violence.

6. Beck channels the comedic stylings of Lt. Steven Hauk
"in my heart I know I'm funny"

8. Why do I have doubts Glenn Beck could even read or comprehend Paine's Common Sense?
