Andy Serwer challenges the Candidates to a detailed Economic Plan discussion and specifically LEAVES OUT Ron Paul. :mad:

Will we take this outrage sitting down?!?

Maybe he left ron paul out because he was making the point the others are all the same and have no real national economic experience? Should have thrown in a lil blurb 4 paul at the end though if thats the case

By leaving out Ron Paul then he is able to make sweeping generalizations about the candidates. It's just lazy and irresponsible reporting.

I called Fortune customer service (1-800-621-8000) and notified them - they gave me an email address for their editor:
fortunemail_letters@fortunemail.com


I think I actually got a human responding:
Thank you for your letter to FORTUNE. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us. I will pass your comments along to the editors.

Below is my letter:



Editors:

In the following video:

Andy Serwer neglects to mention presidential candidate Ron Paul and that Ron Paul has already released a comprehensive plan such as the one Andy is describing:

Here is the plan as a PDF:

Please correct your error in reporting.


Thank you.

Mark my words on this:

After the recent CNN McCain-Romney Interview, where Dr. Paul and Huckabee were marginalized:

The MSM saw that outrage to the way Dr. Paul was treated at the so-called Republican debate was minimal!

The MSM is now saying 'Dr. Paul and his followers are pushovers! - Let's add another nail into the coffin of that candidacy and revolution!'

So Andy Serwer is now challenging every candidate - blatantly omitting Dr. Paul with regard to this Economic Plan discussion.

It only takes for us to be silent for evil to win.

Speak up!

Dear editors,

I watched the following video on money.cnn.com:
http://money.cnn.com/video/ft/#/video/fortune/2008/01/31/streetlife.candidates.fortune

I was frankly disgusted that Andy could do such a shoddy job of
reporting on the Presidential election. The whole time he begs for
a candidate with a sound and specific economic plan; but fails to even
bring up Ron Paul but has already released just such a plan
which Andy claimed doesn't exist: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/prosperity

Was Andy being lazy and just not doing his research? Did he purposely
leave out Dr. Paul so he could make sweeping generalizations
about the rest of the field (on whom he was correct, by the way)?
Either way, I think Andy should extend his invitation for debate to
Ron
Paul so he could actually get some real answers on the economy, rather
than the mimic rhetoric (which he claims to hate) from the other
candidates.

Please note that I am not just making a point, I am actually looking
for answers to these questions. If you do not know Andy's motivation,
please forward
this email to him so he can answer in his own words as I was unable to
locate contact information for him him directly (he /is/ the editor, I
hope he reads these...)

Thank You

Jason

Guys, make sure you copy and paste the URL from your browser, not from the forum post because vbullitin shortens the URLs by putting an ellipses in between and removing some of it. (For example, in my letter I set the full URL, but it has been shortened in my above post)

How about using tinyurl redirection?
