Heard O'Reilly make a comment about this on a short advertisement for his show tonight. Anybody know why the Paul campaign turned down the interview? Possible scheduling conflict?

Ron has also turned down several chances to be on Adam vs. The Man, and Adam said that the campaign manager said "Ron Paul does not go on Russia Today... no one watches you guys anyway."

Well I did... I never watch O'Reilly.

What the hell is going on? Is Ron Paul ok?

He decided to go on Lou Dobbs instead at 7PM EST tonight. No reason to go on O'Reilly just to be attacked and not be allowed to anwser questions.

"Ron Paul does not go on Russia Today..."

This isn't even true.

I'm sure he was given two options:

Go on the show, where the topics discussed will be 9/11 truth, the racist newsletter, how the terrorists want to kill us, and Jersey Shore.

Or, decline and be made to look a fool in a piece about media coverage where he says he was offered to be on his show (which he will harp on about being #1 in the ratings)

A Lose/lose setup.

Here's the deal.

Ron is a front-runner. His goal is not name-recognition his goal is to increase net favorability. Therefore going on O'reilly and talking about whatever Bill'O wants to talk about is NOT going to be good for Ron. Skipping the interview is the best thing he can do.

Bill O'reilly was trying to set up the campaign to fail by putting the campaign into a lose-lose situation. After the way he treated Ron last time in the above video, why would the campaign want to put Ron back on that show again? It would be nothing more than BO trying to corner Ron on drugs and Iran or Ron would simply be shouted down since BO's not a fair interviewer. BO's producers know this and were trying to force the campaign into a corner; either go on our show and get beat up, or we'll beat you up for refusing to go on our show. They are working against us as usual. Not much can be done about it but the fact that RP is going on Lou Dobbs should say something about this.

This is such a transparent ploy by the BO team that it amazes me how many people here have bought into it. Don't fall for the media's tricks and divide/conquer strategy!

Well put, and it will be harder for O'reilly to go after Ron... Because Ron will be on another Fox show!
