YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"You have to watch the entire video," said Glenn Beck on Monday's episode of The Glenn Beck Radio Program as he defended the teens caught in a social media whirlwind over the weekend.
Glenn is referring to a now-viral video that grossly misrepresented a group of Catholic teens at the March for Life rally last Friday.
Controversy erupted after a video showed Covington (Kentucky) Catholic High School students standing in front of a Native American man who was banging a drum and chanting. The students had attended the March for Life, which coincided with the Indigenous Peoples March. Numerous media outlets accused the students — many of whom were wearing Make America Great Again hats — of mocking, surrounding, and trying to intimidate the man, but additional video showed things didn't happen that way.

"It is an outrageous lie," continues Glenn. "And yes, I know media, it is Martin Luther King Day, and so you're going to take my words and twist them. But I stand by my words: these kids, from every indication that I have seen, behaved exactly like Martin Luther King would want kids to behave. They were kind in the face of people who were trying to get them to strike back."
