Be Afraid....

Be very afraid! October marks the month that we as a nation celebrate 'being afraid.' But what do we really have to be afraid about? Read the article from last week's Time magazine on Glenn Beck and then you tell me.

1) Who is Glenn Beck and how did he get his start?

2) What does Mr. Beck tell us to be afraid of? List at least 3 specific fears.

3) Is Glenn Beck the first to play on American's fears? Look at the chart entitled 'Paranoid Politics' and name at least 2 others?

4) What does 'E pluribus unum'mean? Is it true? How do we as Americans stereotype each other politically?

5) Like Micheal Moore, how does Glenn Beck make his money?
