Politics / Media Glenn Beckwatch: A Resolution in the Did-Glenn-Beck-Rape-and-Murder-a-Young-Girl-in-1990? Case
Posted by Paul Constant on Mon, Nov 9, 2009 at 12:59 PM
Well, Slog tipper Mark informs us that the arbitration panel has ruled in favor of Glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com. Beck decisively lost the arbitration.
WIPO's arbitration panel agreed that the website appeared "to be engaged in a parody of the style or methodology that (Eiland-Hall) appears genuinely to believe is employed by (Beck) in the provision of political commentary, and for that reason (Eiland-Hall) can be said to be making a political statement."
In a (PDF) letter, Eiland-Hall then gave Glenn Beck the username and password to the website, which is now inactive. The letter is very much worth reading, but here is the gist:
It is worth noting that Beck has never once answered the question raised by the satirical website.

Has anyone ever noticed that he looks like the drunken, hateful love child of Boris Yeltsin and the Pillsbury Dough Boy? I mean, who wouldn't be drunken and hateful if they were descended from those two?

Well, there must be something to it! Why doesn't he just answer the question? You know who else didn't answer questions? Hitler! Maybe he's in on it with Glenn Beck! I've never heard Glenn Beck deny that, have you? Sure is suspicious, that's all I'm saying.

It's unfortunate that the website is no longer active, because now there's no American brave enough to challenge Glenn Beck. Questions remain.

#8 - Oh, the website is still there. Only one domain name was given up, there are at least 5 or 6 more that work. Try http://www.gb1990.com

@8,
The website is still active under two other domains, just not that one.

if you haven't seen John Stewart's imitation/demolition of Beck (and his appendectomy) from last week, search it out. it was a phenomenal performance.

The existence of this web site is a fantastic and life-affirming thing. Go satire! And their win against Beck = truly FTW!
