The Wall street Journal posted an article mentions Gingrich's great success in the last debate and his "surge" in the "polls" including evidence of both in the title of the article:
Gingrich Cancels Event After Few Show Up
Newt Gingrich is surging in the polls and garnered standing ovations at last night’s GOP presidential debate, but his campaign canceled his first event Friday at a college stadium here due to poor attendance.
Mr. Gingrich was scheduled to speak at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, a four-day event held in the basketball stadium at the College of Charleston. But the stands were all-but empty about five minutes before the former House speaker was set to speak, and his appearance was called off.
The article in its entirety:

Some latest polls (1/21) show Gingrich in 1st place with Ron Paul a distant 3rd place, while the media blitzkrieg cries "Gingrich SURGES in SC!".
Here's is Ron Paul's appearance at the same event, broadcast live on C-Span:

Note that as soon as the crowd spies RP backstage there is a standing ovation. Also note the reception despite an extraordinarily and annoyingly long and anti-climactic introduction.
No one but existing Ron Paul supporters and fans will ever see this comparison and obvious disparity between the Polls and Media bias and the reality of who is actually enjoying a commanding lead in the field of candidates.
Heartbreaking. Infuriating. Astounding.
