Glen Beck : Che

Glen Beck starts his presentation with a newspaper clipping stating that Che's execution forty years ago today, brings back a positive spirit. He specifically uses vocabulary such as propaganda, communism, leftist, Stalin, and killer. Using these words, he tries to paint a very negative picture of Che, pointing out significant facts about him, including that he was an executioner. Beck is frustrated with the fact that people wear shirts with his face (which he compares to wearing a Hitler shirt) and are making a Hollywood movie about him in a positive light. Because I have no idea who Che is, right now Beck has done a very good job of making me think Che was a bad person.
