I keep seeing references to this. There is a thread in the BBQ pit I am reading that has a reference to this, and I have previously seen references elsewhere. Is it true?

No. The joke is basically that Beck never let a lack of facts stop him, so people are turning the tables on him.

It’s a criticism of how Beck spreads bullshit (like Obama being born in Kenya) without actually coming out and saying the bullshit is true.

It certainly started out as a mockery of Beck and how he runs his shows, but after all these months he hasn’t publicly denied the charges even though he easily could have. All evidence available suggests there’s absolutely no reason to think Glenn Beck did not rape and murder a girl in 1990, but there’s nothing wrong with everyone wanting to be extra sure.
