Note: I literally just finished compiling the list below and emailing/contacting every outlet listed below. Leading by example...
Some of us tried this last time to no avail. But now the Federal Reserve story is out there (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?350334-Fed-transcripts-released-today-a-BONANZA-for-Ron-Paul!!!) and I don't think it can be ignored as easily. I think Ron Paul has an historic opportunity. We finally get to know what the Fed was talking about months before the crash and it is shocking stuff that will appall most Americans with their sheer incompetence. Here's the gist:
Federal Reserve reveals shocking incompetence in 2006 while Ron Paul Predicted housing collapse!
"GOP candidate predicts crisis and seeks to prevent it. While the nation's leading financial and economic institution, the Federal Reserve Board (including Obama's treasury secretary), incompetently paints an rosy scenario Ron Paul was warning Congress and the country of the disastrous consequences of the policy they were praising in 2006". This should be the central story this weekend leading up through the the South Carolina debate and election.
I think this will work because the debates have become pretty stale and this is the only recent news that means anything and it's about the cause of the biggest collapse since the Great Depression. It's also about the number one issue: The Economy and how we got here. I'm confident that if Fox drops the ball on Monday they'll probably get "scooped" by CNN a few days later.
Below the contact information for the media outlets is the exact text with much more detail that I've sent to Fox and CNN. I used the long version when possible.
I've also sent it to other networks that will be covering this high profile debate. I'd like to tweet this to moderators but it's too long. Maybe someone could set up a simple webpage like we did for the Black This Out! moneybombs? The theme being "Ron Paul predicted it. You Should Cover It!".
Here is the contact information. I use "Story Idea" more than "comment". And always have my text copied so as to simply paste it.

SC DEBATE: Federal Reserve reveals shocking incompetence in 2006 while Ron Paul Predicted housing collapse!
GOP candidate predicts crisis. Seeks to prevent it. According to its own notes as published in the NYT the Federal Reserve was shockingly incompetent. "Inside the Fed in 2006: A Coming Crisis, and Banter"
It is only appropriate that the next President show that they have competence over the issue in their public lives.

Long Version
SC DEBATE: Federal Reserve reveals shocking incompetence in 2006 while Ron Paul Predicted housing collapse!
GOP candidate predicts crisis. Seeks to prevent it. The biggest economic institution in our country, the Federal Reserve (including Obama's current Treasury Secretary), was shockingly incompetent in predicting a rosy picture in 2006 as revealed by a NYT story, "Inside the Fed in 2006: A Coming Crisis, and Banter".
While they were praising "easy money" policy of Alan Greenspan Ron Paul predicted the housing collapse and tried to prevent it. This should be the central issue coming out of the South Carolina debate and 2012 election.
In the past few years no one can doubt that the housing collapse is perhaps the biggest economic event in our generation. It is only appropriate that the next President show that they have competence over the issue.
Please ask the candidates to address the following question: Since the housing crisis of 2007-2008 is what many believe is the biggest
economic event in our lifetimes. What did you do in your public life to anticipate and prevent the housing meltdown?
Please ask the debate audience to consider the records of each candidate (and the shocking quotes from the Federal Reserve in 2006) when the candidates give the response:

“We just don’t see troubling signs yet of collateral damage, and we are not expecting much,” he said at the September meeting.
Mr. Bernanke initially agreed, telling colleagues at his first meeting as chairman, in March, “I think we are unlikely to see growth being derailed by the housing market.”
“We think the fundamentals of the expansion going forward still look good” ~Tim Geithner, Obama's current Treasury Secretary.
Tim Geithner to Alan Greenspan:"I’d like the record to show that I think you’re pretty
terrific, too. [Laughter] And thinking in terms of probabilities, I think the risk that we decide in the
future that you’re even better than we think is higher than the alternative. [Laughter]"
Ms. Yellen said: “It’s fitting for Chairman Greenspan to leave office with the economy in such solid shape. The situation you’re handing off to your successor is a lot like a tennis racquet with a gigantic sweet spot.”
