    What's really ironic and unfortunate is that although Beck lost in court his fight to shut down "GlennBeckRapedAndMurderedAYoun... . com" - the site's owner felt that he had made his point and voluntarily turned over control of the site to Beck. Now it is Beck who is using the word rape casually and without satire, but effectively, in furtherance of his agenda; The man has no shame whatsoever.

    The "GlennBeckRaped.... .com" resolution story is actually a great read, and includes the WIPO filings and the personal letter to Beck from the domain-holder:

    I got banned from our old sister site consumerist.com for daring to question the journalistic integrity of an author that would claim they were being "raped by credit cards."
    I'm not sure if you all know this, but apparently feminists take everything to seriously, and have no understanding of the definition of the word. Well, that's what I gleaned from the conversation at least.

    @Vivelafat says Sweep the leg, Johnny.: Yeah, I was totally oppressing the guy who lived down the hall from me in college when I suggested he had not, in fact, been raped by a chemistry exam.

    It's so silly to get hung up on the meaning of words, isn't it? Sigh.

    @bluebears: It's also weird that every single feminist is totally unaware that apparently "rape" has a meaning other than unwanted sexual violation. Actually no, we do know there is another definition but A. YOU assholes aren't using the word correctly even by that definition and B. it doesn't fucking matter. Find another word. It's always the people that don't give a shit about vocabulary in any other situation that are suddenly up in arms about me trying to CENSOR their word choice.

    From the linked story about the original prank:

    ""When I saw these videos, I couldn't help thinking, this is the Abu Ghraib of the Great Society," said Breitbart, who put the videos on BigGovernment.com.
    "Everybody that is a conservative news junkie thinks that ACORN is the most important institution for us to uncover to the American public."

    So ACORN is just a liberal holding centre for dudes who want to humiliate other dudes? Or did I miss something, like a giant human rights violation? No? As you were, Mr Breitbart. I will watch your career with interest. #hannahgiles

    Ok, when the dad said "my daughters could tie you and Bill and whoever else in the studio up into knots!" did the host really say, "Bill would pay for that"? And if he did, was that a weird dominatrix joke about this dude's daughter? Like, Bill likes getting beaten by pretty 20 year old women? #hannahgiles

    Did this guy say he kills elephants? This is something to brag about in this age of profuse species extinction? Here's some other stuff that bothers me about this interview:

    a) The FOX news anchor telling Dad that the anchor's colleague would really enjoy an S&M scene with his daughter.

    b) Dad accepting this unblinkingly, then stating that his daughter wanted a "wild man."

    c) Pretty much everything else. #hannahgiles

    Color me unimpressed. Exposing bad aspects of your opponent isn't all that admirable to me- doing your own activist work, on the other hand, gets my attention.
