Beck’s Use of Slaughter

February 3rd, 2010

Whether Glenn Beck remembered using the word slaughter on the air was up in the air yesterday. What is grounded is the sound of his voice as he pronounces “slaughter” in his own defense. (Google Arianna Huffington, Glenn Beck Update)

The joy in his voice is undeniable. As if eating a juicy rib-eye at The Palm, Beck savors the word slaughter, savors saying it. Probably and possibly unconscious but still the voice doesn’t lie. It’s remarkable. While defending his possible use of the word, his unique pronunciation of the word (listen again to his vocal freedom) gives away his having no problem with the word itself. Goes to uninhibited which goes to “probably” used the word to begin with. We do have the evidence that he did use the word slaughter on air. What he meant when he said it is open to interpretation if you’re a Beckerhead or Roger Ailes, who probably hadn’t even heard the bite before going on ABC’s This Week last Sunday to defend Beck. What’s not open to interpretation is Glenn Beck’s ravenous use of slaughter.
