There's a new poll up at Fox News asking, "Who is the strongest GOP presidential candidate at the moment?" The only choices listed are Michele Bachmann, Mitt Romney or Rick Perry. The funny part is that it's titled "No Spin Poll." hahaha.

I posted screenshots of two more polls from today that used the exact same tactic: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?314480-Three-Polls-From-Today-That-Don-t-Include-Ron-Paul-(screenshots) (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?314480-Three-Polls-From-Today-That-Don-t-Include-Ron-Paul-%28screenshots%29)

This is really getting bad, considering RP out polls her nationally.

Send it to Jon Stewart. Compare it to the msnbc poll.

It's surreal how blatant the bias is with the media. The naive notions I once had of the media being fair have been shattered. I miss feeling like I can believe what I heard on the news. I miss feeling like I can believe what the government says. I don't like questioning everything. Unfortunately, we have no choice.

Stop watching Fox News. Stop going to their website. Send them an email telling them why.

I stopped watching them after they left Ron Paul out of their debate in 2008. I don't miss them at all.

Here is the phone number to the Fox Newsroom.

Flood their phone lines and let them know what we think about this:
212-301-5800

(if you run that number through Google you can find some more interesting contacts at FNC too)

Do you really expect Bill O'Reilly to give any respect to the Dr? Dr. Paul has made multiple comments about how much he doesn't really like Bill or his style, so it makes complete since to me that this would happen.

Their blatant disregard for being anything close to fair and balanced is mindboggling.

Why do they want to give so much ammo to Jon Stewart?

The guy at the number said he was with Fox radio and he seemed frustrated. Keep calling.

Great find. Do we know if it's up to date(says something about 2009)?

Honestly....out of those choices.

Anyone but Perry. I feel like if we stop him, then the Tea Party will be unsatisfied with Romney and then we'll have an opening.

Shouldn't this be under the Media Spin section?

Anyways theres now a poll on the front page of www.cnn.com and guess what, Ron isn't listed. Big shocker, I know.


Which GOP contender has the best shot at being elected president?

* Bachmann
* Perry
* Romney

Here's an idea for a nationwide campaign ad. How about we put together a collection of screen shots of all the polls that Ron Paul has won. We can prove that he consistently beats all other candidates including Obama, and then show people that the media is taking away their freedom of choice by not even giving people the option to vote for him. We can tell them that the mainstream media is effectively blacking him out. Ask them what ABC, CNN, NBC, CBS, and FOX news are so afraid of and encourage them to do their own research and think for themselves. I think it would at least raise some serious questions. Also, I think there will be people who do the research, become educated, and will side with Liberty and true prosperity for the rest of their lives.

Seems they all got the same memo. Here's a WSJ poll with the same deal: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?314401-WSJ-Poll-Without-All-The-Candidates-(including-Ron-Paul) (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?314401-WSJ-Poll-Without-All-The-Candidates-%28including-Ron-Paul%29)

Well, Dr. Paul is already ahead of Bachmann, and the media keeps saying how her campaign is falling apart. So what are they going to do for the next 4-5 months? Talk about Romney and Perry 24 hours a day, while ignoring Ron Paul that whole time? Any credibility they have left will be gone.

I've got screenshots showing 3 different polls from today all of which don't include Ron Paul. They also only list 3 candidates. I made a separate thread for anyone that wants to see them.
