Glenn Beck Video
In the video, Glenn Beck expresses his shock and disgust at the public's ignorance to who Che Guevara actually was. He describes Guevara as a "cold-blooded killer" and a "Stalin wannabe," and he condemns the public for wearing Che icons without truly knowing who he was. Beck emphasizes that Guevara was part of a Stalinist regime, helped put Castro in power, and yet somehow got the western media to buy into his "legend." Anyone viewing this video would be shocked at the public's huge misconception of Che; however, this video fails to mention Che's past in which he expressed a genuine concern for the indigenous people. Che's good intentions in his early life do not compensate for his acts as an executioner; however, it is difficult to formulate an opinion from this video because it is hard to tell what else this video is leaving out about Che's life.
