Right-wing media divided: Is U.S. now in World War III, IV, or V?

(14. Juli 2006) Most recently, on the July 13 edition of Fox News‘ The O‘Reilly Factor, host Bill O‘Reilly said „World War III … I think we‘re in it.“ Similarly, on the July 13 edition of MSNBC‘s Tucker, a graphic read: „On the verge of World War III?“ As Media Matters for America has noted, CNN Headline News host Glenn Beck began his program on July 12 with a discussion with former CIA officer Robert Baer by saying „we‘ve got World War III to fight,“ while also warning of „the impending apocalypse.“ Beck and Baer had a similar discussion on July 13, in which Beck said: „I absolutely know that we need to prepare ourselves for World War III. It is here.“
