I'm sure everyone on here knows who Ben Swann is and has seen his "Reality Check" cast about Ron Paul. Everyone reading this may or may not be aware that Ben Swann's Facebook page went from roughly 800 "likes" to over 10k "likes" after the Ron Paul story. Here's that story as a reminder (not that anyone on here needs a reminder) http://www.fox19.com/category/195974/video-landing-page?clipId=6466348&autostart=true
Last night, Ben Swann ran a story about The Patriot Act, which was then circulated by Judge Napolitano. Here's that story:

The night the Ron Paul story aired, I created this Fanpage:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ben-Swann-for-Press-Secretary-2012/242807579112438?ref=tn_tnmn
What I have been trying to convey since creating that page is that even though Ben Swann is a brave and bold reporter, Ron Paul supporters must THINK BIG. Look at the BIGGER Picture. Ben Swann is a reporter who works for WXIX FOX19 in Cincinnati, OH. FOX19 is owned by Raycom Media. Here is a bit of info about Raycom:
http://raycommedia.com/locations/
"Raycom, an employee-owned company, is one of the nation’s largest broadcasters and owns and/or operates 46 television stations in 37 markets and 18 states. Raycom stations cover 12.7% of U.S. television households and employ nearly 3,500 individuals in full and part-time positions........With a strong belief in community, Raycom Media television stations take editorial positions on key community issues. It is the vision of the company that it be involved in the communities its broadcast properties serve. By editorializing on local issues and seeking out divergent points of view, Raycom Media television stations create an atmosphere of community dialog."
With that said, I have been trying since November 18 to stress to ALL Ron Paul supporters that it is important to contact Raycom Media and ask for Fair and Equal coverage for Ron Paul in ALL of it's markets. I've sent letters and emails to Raycom, but I think it's important for ALL supporters to contact them, commend Ben Swann and WXIX FOX19, and ask for stories related to Dr. Paul's history, voting records, domestic and foreign policies, straw poll results, etc, etc.
Can you imagine the possibilities if one Media "Giant" were to take the stand of endorsing Fair and Equal coverage for Ron Paul, especially RIGHT NOW!!!!
Help me out Supporters. Get the Grassroots involved. THINK BIG.......
