I hate to say it, but FOX NEWS. Just run the tabs on how much time he was given to speak at FOX News debates as opposed to CNN and MSNBC.

Apart from Hannity and Bill O, all the other hosts have been good to him.

That's a really complex question. Cause for each station, you could have very friendly commentators, and very biased ones. And yeah, the non-fox stations have given Ron Paul the least amount of time at debates.

sorry, my fault ;)

ok, hmmmm, difficult to say. i used to think cnn, but then the debate came along. hmm.
ok, still cnn. blitzer had him a few times, and don't forget cafferty and others.

oh, wait. maybe fox buissiness ? they had 3 purely positive pieces...

NONE

Although I will admit that Wolf Blitzer seems to be very honest when dealing w/ Dr Paul, even though his network is fully corrupt.

I think CNN has given our guy the most coverage. I think FOX NEWS has lost all credibility and has been anything but "fair & balanced". MSNBC says something positive one day and then treats Ron Paul like crap the next day. Talk Radio, dominated by so-called conservatives, is a non-stop neocon puppet show. The major newspapers are most suitable for lining bird cages.

He only got more time at Faux because he had to be allotted time to fend off the dozens of ridiculous character-assassination attempts.

I never ever watched CNN before this campaign. I hate to admit it, but I think CNN has been pretty fair about getting him on TV so he can deliver his message.

CNN should thank Ron for recruiting new viewers!

THe recent articles are pretty good but I remember one they wrote in the summer--it was horrible. It made it seem like Ron Paul had absolutely no supporters and the few supporter he did have called him "John Paul." Seriously, it was a horrible article, and to top it off, it was dual article that included Mike Gravel (I suppose used as a comparison--unknown, old cranky candidates). Total hitpiece it was. Yellow journalism at its worse!

ABC has been pretty positive in the pieces they've done.

Recently CNN has been pretty good. C-SPAN has been decent too. MSNBC is decent. Fox news has given Ron Paul a somewhat fair shake. I don't think Bill O' was that bad in that interview, but then he called him a "pinhead." Also, Gibson and Hannity are grade-A a-holes. Michelle sucks too. And Chris Wallace is a lame. Overall all, it hasn't been hitpiece after hitpiece. They have somewhat balanced it out. Also, their business channnel has interviewed and it seemed nice. I don't know which has been the best to Ron Paul though.
