I GUESS BECK WASN'T BULLSHITTING

UPDATE:  The NY TImes also has an article about these capitalist pigs.

(h/t Raw Story)

On his radio show, Beck has mentioned several times meeting with important persons but he never gives the names, so I thought this was just more fodder for the rubes.  It turns out I'm wrong.

Lee Fang at Think Progress lets us know that the "vast right-wing conspiracy" is still alive and Beck is one of the members.
MEMO: Health Insurance, Banking, Oil Industries Met With Koch, Chamber, Glenn Beck To Plot 2010 Election

ThinkProgress has obtained a memo outlining the details of the last Koch gathering held in June of this year. The memo, along with an attendee list of about 210 people, shows the titans of industry — from health insurance companies, oil executives, Wall Street investors, and real estate tycoons — working together with conservative journalists and Republican operatives to plan the 2010 election, as well as ongoing conservative efforts through 2012. According to the memo, David Chavern, the number two at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Fox News hate-talker Glenn Beck also met with these representatives of the corporate elite.
Karl Eller was one of the attendees and he's from the Tucson area. The business school at the University of Arizona is named after him.
