Beck v. Eiland-Hall is a case before the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) filed by political commentator Glenn Beck, concerning the website "GlennBeckRapedAndMurderedAYoungGirlIn1990.com".

Beck v. Eiland-Hall is a case before the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) filed by political commentator Glenn Beck, concerning the website "GlennBeckRapedAndMurderedAYoungGirlIn1990.com". The site was created by Isaac Eiland-Hall as a parody of Beck's style of commentary. On August 31, 2009, a post to the Internet discussion community Fark applied a joke originally used by comedian Gilbert Gottfried at a 2008 comedy roast of Bob Saget, to instead refer to Beck. At the roast of Saget, Gottfried jokingly implored listeners to disregard the (non-existent) rumor that his fellow comedian raped and murdered a girl in 1990. The Internet meme as applied to Beck spread from Fark to other social media websites. Internet posters contrasted the meme with Beck's style of arguing, by requesting Beck "prove that he didn't" commit the act in question. Eiland-Hall saw the discussion on Fark using the Gottfried joke applied to Beck, and created a website about it.
