What's Glenn Beck afraid of?


What's Glenn Beck afraid of?

From the comfort of his studio, Glenn Beck launches attacks on social justice and people of faith - but he's ignored every invitation for an honest, two-sided debate on these issues.

Tell Glenn Beck: It's time to stop hiding and engage in an open debate.

Dear Supporter,

Our radio ad campaign is making an impact -- and Glenn Beck noticed. He played our ad on his show, calling Faithful America a "so-called religious" organization.

And we're far from the first group he's attacked -- he's also gone after Sojourners, the National Council of Churches and Jewish Funds for Justice.

But while Glenn Beck doesn't miss a chance to attack over the airwaves, he continues to dodge open debate.

Ask Glenn Beck to participate in an open debate.

Back in March, Rev. Jim Wallis of Sojourners, who has been one of Beck's favorite targets, offered to come on Beck's show and debate him in person.

Beck's only response was to make more on-air attacks on Wallis, Sojourners and social justice.

If Beck's sure enough of his point of view to broadcast it to millions of people, why is he dodging open debate?

Ask Glenn Beck to stop hiding and engage in a meaningful, two-sided debate with a social justice leader.

It's time for Glenn Beck to stop hiding and start engaging. Our campaign's getting great media coverage so far - if Glenn Beck continues to dodge the real issues, the world's going to know it.

Let's show Glenn Beck we're not afraid to stand up for what we believe in.
