SOUND FIXED Live stream & transcript of The Telegraph's Ron Paul Interview 10/28 11am ET

[harikaried]

Edit: The Telegraph has posted the video of the interview (and the audio works fine!)

http://www.nashuatelegraph.com/primary/nh2012/ron-paul

Here's a story about the setup of the interview at a Nashua high school:

In addition to the Webcasts and public TV system telecasts, the student producers are planning to make the sessions available to their classmates, airing them on the high schools’ television system.

When it broadcasts live, you can watch the video stream or follow the transcript:

That same page should let you submit questions before the event starts 10/28 11am ET.

[harikaried]

This should be in about an hour.

[muzzled dogg]

He did ok with the breakfast in nashua this morning

There were ~100 people there and most were not supporters but local business owners (event hosted by Nash chamber of commerce )

I handed out a bum load of DVDs to people walking out

[muzzled dogg]

Bump?

[harikaried]

About 10 minutes to go but the live stream says less than 10 people viewing?

Viewership numbers provided by YouTube? :D

[The Magic Hoof]

The audio isn't working!

[ShaneEnochs]

My internet is crapping out today x_x Blarghhh

[musicmax]

No audio. The media blackout continues :(

[djruden]

The audio isn't working!
nope :(

[orenbus]

no sound :/

[polygonwidow2001]

F'in amateurs! No wonder only 30+ viewers.

Are they this desperate to silence the message of freedom and liberty or just a pack of dimwits?:D

[The Magic Hoof]

Maybe we can just pretend that whatever he's saying is about following the constitution :D

[ShaneEnochs]

Guess we'll have to wait for tubez.

[The Magic Hoof]

I heard a buzzing sound for a split second there...

[orenbus]

I heard a buzzing sound for a split second there...

Same, it's possible they are trying to fix it but who know maybe they just gave up.

[sailingaway]

Where are the lip readers when we need them?

[zHorns]

What's the point in a live steam with no audio?

Lame.

[sailingaway]

There is a chat if you push for the larger view. I mentioned no sound. But you can't see the questions there....

[harikaried]

I called Jake Berry (staff writer), and he said he'll pass the message along about the audio issue.

[The Magic Hoof]

Umm, it's over? It says OFFLINE

[musicmax]

Ron looks relaxed and confident. Not waving his arms.

Now the video is offline too. Maybe they'll fix it in time for Huntsman on Monday :rolleyes:

[harikaried]

The interview should be 1 hour long. Hopefully it's offline to fix the audio issue.

[musicmax]

From the transcript window:
We are working to resolve the sound issues.

good.

[loveshiscountry]

30 minutes in and nothing to see or hear. I thought it was strange they didn't have the stream going until the second it started.

[harikaried]

10 questions in 30 minutes. Seems like Ron Paul is getting good time to explain himself.

[The Magic Hoof]

Stream still isn't online =/

[ShaneEnochs]

"It's contradictory that one day you can make a lot of money for killing a baby (before birth) and the next day (after birth) you can go to prison."

GREAT line!

[musicmax]

That's MY question about military contributions!

[ShaneEnochs]

That's MY question about military contributions!

That's awesome! I asked for him to guarantee our safety in case of attack. I hope it gets asked.

[The Magic Hoof]

The stream is working for you guys? It still says OFFLINE for me.

[ShaneEnochs]

Nah, we're reading the transcript.

[musicmax]

The stream is working for you guys? It still says OFFLINE for me.

No I'm reading the transcript that's being updated periodically under the window where the stream should be. Transcript appears to be incomplete but it's getting the gist of RP's answers (or at least I hope it is).

[ShaneEnochs]

"A: This is an economic consequence. ... China is about to arm themselves and invade America. But they are the economic power. "

Wait, what? Is this a typo?

[musicmax]

"China is about to arm themselves and invade America"

WHAT?

[theczar1776]

Yes, it's true. We are Ron Paul junkies. What other supporters would sit here watching their candidate with no sound, no picture and just an occasional partial typed update? Anything for just a taste of liberty and truth!

[sailingaway]

Sound on@@@

[zHorns]

Sound on.. oh wait, it's over.

[sailingaway]

yeah, something like 2 questions. I wonder if the posted video will have sound, or if Ron will be the ONLY candidate without sound?

[unknown]

Caught the last 5 minutes.

[musicmax]

They waited until the sound was working to get in that PolitiFart slam from their own reporter.

[harikaried]

"China is about to arm themselves and invade America"

WHAT?They fixed the transcript and added in a "not".

"A: This is an economic consequence. ... China is not about to arm themselves and invade America. But they are the economic power."

[zHorns]

yeah, something like 2 questions. I wonder if the posted video will have sound, or if Ron will be the ONLY candidate without sound?

It's pretty lame that they invite a Presidential candidate on only to have technical issues the entire time.

They should have this stuff worked out long in advance.

[Pizzo]

"A: This is an economic consequence. ... China is about to arm themselves and invade America. But they are the economic power. "

Wait, what? Is this a typo?
Must have been a typo. I just looked and it says "China is not about to arm themselves...."

[harikaried]

Wow. The audio was on for Ron Paul's response to the PolitiFact question talking about how his franchise taxes have gone up, etc. All the transcript says: "A: My taxes have gone up in Texas. "

[walt]

uhm we shoudl call them and ask that they do it over

[zHorns]

Wow. The audio was on for Ron Paul's response to the PolitiFact question talking about how his franchise taxes have gone up, etc. All the transcript says: "A: My taxes have gone up in Texas. "

The transcript was lame. It would summarize his answers removing all the arguments.

[musicmax]

Must have been a typo. I just looked and it says "China is not about to arm themselves...."

I alerted them to this typo and the one about the overseas militarism costing $4 trillion (originally said billion).

[ShaneEnochs]

I say we email them.

Dear Sir:

I find it unacceptable for an online event for a Presidential candidate to have severe audio problems. This was a complete failure on your team's part and inexcusable as errors like this should not occur in a professionally run news organization. Some of us could not attend in person and rely on a live streaming source to get their news and to evaluate candidates. I hope that the Telegraph will consider placing a working link prominently of the event replay to give others a chance to see what we missed on the live stream and issue an apology to the Ron Paul campaign and those viewers affected.

[sailingaway]

Guys, let's not be the 'horrid rabid Ron Paul people'. If anyone emails them it might be nice to just say we understand technical difficulties can happen to anyone, but with Pew showing Ron had the least debate time of all candidates when he was polling nationally in 3rd place, and the Minnesota edu study showing Ron Paul had the least mainstream media coverage of all GOP candidates even during the period when he was polling in third place nationally, we are sure they can understand why we are concerned that an important interview has no sound and hope the video on their site will have the full sound. If that is impossible due to technical difficulties, Ron might be willing to do it again.

[harikaried]

They updated the page with a working video with audio!
