Glenn Beck Trades Insults with Stephen King

On conservative host Bill O’Reilly‘s show last night, author and conservative personality Glenn Beck took a couple jabs at novelist Stephen King. Watch in the Mediaite video embedded above.

In his Entertainment Weekly column, King threw the first punch by describing Beck: “He’s crazy, but like those urban nut cakes, he actually seems to believe what he is saying.”

Beck responded with a few jabs of his own on The O’Reilly Factor. When asked about King, Beck replied: “He’s the guy that usually when I release my books at the same time, he’s No. 2.” Newsbusters has the complete show transcript, if you don’t want to watch the video.
