We need to find a way to dismantle their narrative, that is how we win this.

We must expose them for the liars they are, then the truth about Ron Paul will win!

+rep. Today proves that this is the key to a win. The opponents are terrible. If we can overcome the media, we win.

An ad campaign that exposes the media sure would be, different...that is for sure.

We need to dig into the records of all major media pundits, news anchors, and the networks themselves. Should be easy to expose them as the liars that they are, make it obvious to the American people then Ron Paul is the only Real Truth.

You know, there is no one source that really puts together how the Military Industrial Complex, the Banking Industry, the AIPAC/Zionist lobby, Big Pharma and so forth are all intertwined with the media.

People understand how these different corporate entities are corrupt in terms of their lobbying and influence, but they don't understand the extent to which our media is owned or influenced by them.

We need to get more people to watch the Daily Show. By far the best exposure of the MSM.

DVD EXPOSING THE MEDIA - SUPER BROCHURE STRATEGY

I gave this suggestion weeks ago. As I said, our enemy is not Romney, Gingrich, Santorum, Bachmann or any other candidate. It’s the whole establishment: the whole media apparatus, the GOP, the DNC, the FED and the big corporations, the military industrial complex etc.

The vehicle they all use is the media, which is a social engineering apparatus, that deploys all its power not to inform, but to manipulate public opinion. The only way we can defeat our enemies is discrediting the media.

We need very short vídeos the internet, they need to go viral. And, as suggested here, we need a documentary exposing the manipulation of media against Ron Paul, and then linking the media to the American elite. This documentary should as much information as is needed to make a compelling and irrefutable case against media credibility, from MSNBC to FOX, from Rachel Maddow to Rush Limbaugh. And then show why they are so afraid of Ron Paul.

This should be spread by mail. Just like was done with the Super Brochures, we should send a DVD to super voters first, and then to independents.

Another good point in this is that we could explain the real Ron Paul ideas while exposing the distortions of the media. For instance, when they say Ron Paul is left to Barack Obama in Foreign Policy, we could explain his foreign policy better, and then show how it’s based on the Christian Just War Theory, that it’s the only Constitutional foreign policy, that it’s in the tradition of the conservative movement and the GOP etc.

We don’t have to send it to the whole country right away. We can do as the campaign proceeds to the next states. And we should ask for donations from all of those who receive the DVD. Engage the viewer into the campaign and into the battle against media distortion. Appeal to their sense of justice, saying that, even if they disagree with everything Ron Paul says, they should have defend the Idea that it’s despicable for the media to distort everything he says, or call him names etc.

So, what I think is needed to accomplish this?

1) A full script, with a detailed and compelling argument, with a lot of powerfull quotes (for instance, that guy saying that it’s the media job to decide who’s is going to be elected).
2) High quality vídeos to illustrate every point made in the documentary.
3) Show the connection between the media, the military industrial complex, the Power elite of America.
4) Insert counter arguments, explaining the real Ron Paul ideas and how and why the media distorts them.
5) Design a nice argument to make people engage on this and to donate, so more people can see that. Also, tell them to show this to other people.
6) We need a list of supervoters of next states and to see in what states we can still apply this strategy. It’s too late for NH and, maybe, SC. What are the states we have enough time to send the DVDs to supervoters and independents?
7) We need to know how much money we need for each of these states and have a time Schedule to raise it.
8) Of course, put the DVD also in the internet (full and just clips of it, so people can get the ideas in little time).

The point here is this: you don’t need to convince 100% of voters. You do need 10% of voters to become very strong supporters. These 10% can, then, spread the message to 50% of voters (maybe) and a lot of not so strong support. One strong supporter is worth more than 5 or 10 soft supporters, because you know they won’t defect and they can get by themselves those 5 or 10 soft supporters by their own.

The big question is this: WHO WANTS TO ENGAGE IN THIS PROJECT?

We need an official "Media" sub-forum. Not just a "Media Spin" but a "Media" with the spin section inside it, to start cataloging everything.

We must start presenting valid and actual, visible proof to everyone about the bias of Ron Paul.

The media is our opponent (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?345868-The-media-is-our-opponent-not-the-other-candidates.)AMEN

I have tried to highlight this all too important point all along

In fact I registered in this forum specifically out of being getting tired of the appalling naivety towards the media that seems to exist among Paultards. Some of you have been (shockingly) sympathetic to this or that or the other media personality. For example until very recently I have seen Paulites shamelessly posting on this forum and complimenting Sean "Hal Turner" Hannity of all people because he allegedly "agreed" with this or that policy that Paul espousis (completely failing to realize that that was a false prelude and a setup in order to sound credible when attacking Paul...

Do those of you still ludicrously assume that Hannity actually agrees with Paul on ANY ONE THING (hint: he doesn't!!!
