Exaggerate to make Paul supporters look bad much?

Fair is fair...right?

I'm saying I am fine with what organizations decide what to report on.
Not everyone is going to cover exactly what I would like to see...not everyone is going to cover what YOU think is important...and not everyone is going to treat everyone or every topic in a fair way.
Crying doesn't help. Just go find multiple news sources that you can tap into and get a general idea of what is going on.
Media is free to cover the race how they see fit...if they think Paul is a non-factor...they aren't required to cover him in the primary...and I would think that would be something that Ron Paul would be very supportive of.
Do you think Ron Paul would want his supporters crying in an attempt to force a private organization to do something???

Seeing how the media is controlled by those corporations that are afraid of Ron Paul because he knows of their ties to the Federal Reserve makes the whole thing corrupt. I think most people know it's corrupt, including you. What needs to happen is these people need to be exposed for what they are, then we can go back to fair reporting.

Infowars is (as usual) a week late and a dollar short.
This report was made the day after the Iowa caucus, if you'll notice. The stats are those prior to the first debate, in fact. In their frantic efforts to find out why Ron isn't appealing to 80% of the voters, they're hopping on every instance where they think he's ignored -- even if it's last week's news.
The news channels are not obligated to do "all Paul 24-7" nor are they obligated to recite the names of every single candidate in every single story. If memory serves, Ron had not made it to NH then (the others hotfooted it to NH the second the caucus was over.)
Other politicians are doing interesting things and voters who aren't favoring Ron Paul really don't want 24-7 coverage of him. They'd like to hear about their own candidates. If you google for news stories (not op ed, not blogs) on Ron, you'll find he's getting a lot more coverage than Huntsman and several others.

You don't actually think that the reporter made this call on her own do you? The decision to omit Dr. Paul from coverage is being made at the very top of the MSM empires. If you can stomach it just go watch a little FOX 'News' political coverage. Their agendas are entirely transparent to us but the demographics that only know the world through their MSM-of-choice are being led around on a leash. And it works. Look at the Romney exit poll demographics. Over 50% of his votes came from the 55yo+ cohorts --- which are exactly the demographics of the MSM 'news' outlets. Say something enough and it must be true.

This isn't an "election"...this is a primary.
It is Party business...not US government business.
Everyone has agendas...I bet infowars gives more press and more positive press to Ron Paul than any other candidate...are you crying over them being unfair too???
