There is absolutely no question or doubt in my mind that the media is FAILING us and the entire world with its biased coverage on this. The ONLY reason I tuned in, was to see Ron Paul make a fool out of everyone's bickering and policy without personally attacking anyone at all. Instead, what did CNN do? Allowed him a total of 3.5 minutes in the entire broadcast and cut him off multiple times.


What struck me, is after Anderson asked if Ron Paul would have supported Reagan's choice of Sandra Day O'Connor, they let him answer "No", cut off an explanation, and made him look like he is insulting the great and almighty Ronald Reagan. These are disgusting cheap shots and I'm not going to stand for it. I will be voting on "Super Tuesday" just to stick it to CNN and all the major networks for rigging the system and exposing themselves for their true nature. This was the last straw for me, and I can't emphasize enough how upset I am.

This is increasingly becoming more and more intolerable. A great gorge is forming behind a wall of corporate deceit, and when the levee breaks, there will be hell to pay.

Sign this petition NOW, for starters: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/487443841

We need to funnel our outrage/angry/fears toward a useful goal.

Let's knock out the source of Ron Paul's "media blackout" - The media.

I'm delighted.

They are exposing their true colors to the world.

They don't even bother to be subtle anymore.

Ron Paul needs to kick ass and take names when it comes to his campaign staff. He needs them to get their act together if he expects to win. Although I've been hereing that it's not about him winning it's about getting the "message" out. If this is true then please scratch my first sentence as they are apparently just following orders.

I feel fine overall. I only wish he would have answered the economy/military question differently, emphasizing that we would have a strong national defense, etc. People still think he is weak on defense. Some even think he is a pacifist. But overall, considering how little time he had, I feel okay.

Okay, if ever there was a single picture that captured what's wrong with American journalism, that is it.

I was disappointed with his unfair treatment. I was hoping to see a debate. I hoped for fairness and I was let down. I signed the petition.
