Rabbis Push for Sanctions Against Fox News' Glenn Beck

A group of at least 400 rabbis published a letter on Thursday calling for sanctions of Fox News talk show host Glenn Beck by that network's executives. At issue is Beck's repeated use of holocaust and Nazi imagery on his show and for airing attacks on World War II survivor George Soros.

The public letter, addressed to News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch, also demands an apology from the head of Fox News, Roger Liles, for referring to the host's Jewish critics as “left-wing rabbis.” The letter was published as an ad in the Wall Street Journal, which is owned by News Corp, the parent company of Fox News. The rabbis spent $100,000 to publish the letter, according to a spokesman for the group.
