Nice to see some of the major news outlets giving Ron SOME kind of love.

It seems kinda weird to me that FOX is the only network not treating Paul fairly. Maybe there really is an ideological media divide rather than across-the-board MIC ownership

Good press. Bask in the glow, and encourage people to donate. Getting even five more people to donate can be worth a lot.

No network treats Paul fairly, but the tactics are different.
Most of the networks choose to just ignore Ron Paul as much as possible.
Fox attacks. It has so since the beginning.

Bro they gave him way more airtime in this fox debate than the 89 seconds they gave him a month or so back on NBC? ABC?.

cbs...and all the time was spent attacking Ron on Fox. "so you're to the left of Obama on foreign policy?"

I think CNN at least has been exceptionally fair. Just look at the last debate and the Wolf Blitzer interview from 2 days ago

there is across the board MIC ownership. as someone else said, the tactics are different... which makes sense, since a different demographic watches, say, CBS news vs. FOX news.

Do not dream about abc-nbc-cbs being any better,thay often have been equally unfair,sometimes worse than Fox.
Actually if by some miracle we had to win the repub nomination we would have our only allies in Fox all of a sudden.
the trio above would be the usual Obama propaganda machine and Paul would be back as a crazy old nazi-confederate-ridicoulos republican who wants to let children die in the street.

This is sad but true.
But I have a feeling that Fox may not whole-heartily rally behind a Paul nomination.
I think they will be baffled as to what to do.
I would like to see them baffled.

Well it couldn't be that bad if someone was declaring us a winner. Guess we may have been overreacting. Though ABC and CBS aren't being followed by the people we are trying to convince to join Ron, usually just a bunch of left wing democrats :/. But still if Ron is being declared a winner by two MSM networks, looks good!

Fox isn't the only one. If they all completely ignore Ron Paul totally, even the sheeple will catch on, they have to give him some semblance of reasonable reporting once in a while.

That's when you get out, and re-quote it on other conservative forums. The good press gets rewarded, and you even help to destroy the gatekeepers of the neoconned movement. It's a bad idea to get all your news from a couple of sources that wants to manipulate you - easily bought up by the same people.
