Glenn Beck Installs Red Phone for White House 'So You Can Correct the Mistakes as They Happen'

Glenn Beck stayed on offense during his show today, installing a red phone on his set. The office of White House communications director Anita Dunn was given the number -- the only ones given the number, according to Beck.

"Anita. Call me. Call me at anytime. We want to have a dialogue."

And all this is ratings gold for Beck. Last night was his third-highest rated show since he joined FNC earlier this year.
