What sparked that was Glenn Beck asking the first sitting Muslim member of Congress, Keith Ellison: “Now, I wouldn’t say this, but some of my listeners might like to ask you: ‘Are you working for our enemies?’”.
Bear in mind that this was in a time when politicians were not openly working for Russia, so the idea of asking a sitting member of the House of Representatives if he was “working for our enemies” was galling. But it was Beck’s technique of “Oh, I’m not saying, this, rather, ‘it is being said by some unspecified people’” to weasel out of it being him saying it.
That said, I have avoided Rogan completely, so cannot speak directly to his particular brand of bullshit.
The difference is that Beck and Carlson are actually more straightforward with regards to how they lean. Rogan always suggests he’s a centrist, sometimes even suggesting he is apolitical, which is patently false.
Glenn Beck was (is?) big on that one too.
Glenn Beck can fuck off too
Any example of a question?
Do you just mean hard questions, like a classic journalist?
“Is it possible that Hillary Clinton actually was running a pedophile ring out of a pizza parlor basement? I mean, I’m just asking questions here.”
Ancient Aliens had more plausible propositions.
I have a little experience on Glenn Beck.

Thats pretty hilarious, the website I mean.
Hilarious and all, but did Glenn Beck rape and murder a child in 1990?
He hasn’t yet proven otherwise.
Yes, and Tucker Carlson. It’s kind of a thing.

Alex Jones been doing that kind of thing since the 90s (at least).
