GLENDA BECK MARCHES OFF INTO THE FRINGE

Media Matters noted that FAUX News didn't cover Beck's farce in Israel rally and through LexisNexis, I found that there was almost no coverage on TV or radio. I searched for "Glenn Beck", "Israel", last month, TV and Radio Transcripts and only one show mentioned Glenda's rally:
Rick Perry Vaults to Republican Front Runner Status; Glenn Beck Makes Speech to Small Crowd in Israel; Tripoli Hotel Captivity
MSNBC, August 24, 2011 Wednesday, NEWS; International, 7293 words, Chris Hayes
Searching American Newspapers & Wire Services, there were 36 hits in the last month but only 6 were from major news sources:
