The Fox News host Glenn Beck was criticized Thursday by the Anti-Defamation League in response to a televised segment about the financier George Soros and the Holocaust.
Throughout three programs this week, Beck has portrayed Soros, a billionaire investor and philanthropist, as a “puppet master” who is “notorious for collapsing economies and regimes all around the world” and whose “next target” is the United States. Citing Soros’ statements about the decline of the dollar, Beck said, “Not only does he want to bring America to her knees, financially, he wants to reap obscene profits off us as well.”
