Seriously?' Maddow Praises Fox News While Bashing Hannity, Beck

Rachel Maddow must have missed Glenn Beck's response (see here) to accusations he's spreading wild conspiracy theories, because on Thursday night she tried, once again, to paint Beck as a madman for showing the similarities between the extreme left and extreme Islam.

"Straw man" is one of the best-named fallacies, because it is memorable and vividly illustrates the nature of the fallacy. Imagine a fight in which one of the combatants sets up a man of straw, attacks it, then proclaims victory. All the while, the real opponent stands by untouched.

If the show fits...
