Video: Glenn Beck's Secret for Crying on Cue: Vick's Vapo Rub Under the Eyes

http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/1430 ... _the_eyes/

A leaked video of a Glenn Beck photo shoot shows the FOX News host having a substance applied under his eyes, which then begin to stream for the camera.

SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO

It's one of those great mysteries: How does Glenn Beck, propagandist and D-list actor, get himself to cry on cue? A rogue video making the rounds of the Internet offers an answer: an eye-watering substance applied under the eyes, which Ron Brynaert at The Raw Story suggests to be Vicks VapoRub.

The video shows Beck sitting for a still camera, making crying faces after the mysterious substance is applied under his eyes. When Beck "cries" on the air, he usually says it's because he loves his country. Check out the video: seems it's the attention he loves.

    I am no Glenn Beck fan (although I liked him a lot more when he was on CNN, or was it some other channel?), I don't know that this is the actual technique that he uses on his show. I think the focus of the photoshoot was to get a picture of him crying, as that's what he's famous for now, so why not give him something to induce crying?

    I don't think it's all that difficult to allow emotion to overwhelm you when you are being filmed for an audience of over 1 million people.

    He might use Vicks on the show-- but, I don't think this video was any kind of big "HA HA, GOTCHA GLENN BECK!"

    you know you are a knob when corporations will not whore themselves or their products out on your program.

    That shit is strong lol...

    Yeah, no a big deal... it was for a photoshoot. However, he should be embarrassed that he fake cries so much that they use that pose in a photoshoot :)
