NPR hit piece (audio link)

Here we go, this is what they have on him. We've known it all along, but I think we can only expect more. To be honest, if this is the best they can do, I'm not too worried.

I think NPR fears Ron Paul. They depend on government subsidy for funding if I am correct.

Very good point.

Everybody on this damn forum is bipolar. Hate npr one day love it the next. Anybody who shills for RP is fine, anybody who doesn't is scum worthy of a boycott.

NPR is an Agenda Setting Gatekeeper, but I have to listen because it is the better than anything else. I've been listening for five minutes and it is just bad radio.

The written article wasn't too bad, actually. "We don't agree with everything he says, but we support him because he is honest." That's pretty much what I got from it. It could have been better, of course. They could have added Ron's reasons for voting against those items, and his reasons for using the earmarks.

I heard this yesterday and was wondering WTF? There is no productive information at all in that piece, and it seems very biased against him.

[son of liberty]

TOTAL hitpiece by design.

So true. I wonder what will happen if he becomes president? Will questioning him be considering an act of treason?

[kotetu]

Listening to it now - I see what you mean about it being a hit-piece.

They are spinning it that way. bah.

the MYSPACE MODERATOR JUST SENT THAT OUT TO 100,000 PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But read the comments - they ask us to say who we "Ron Paul" supporters are, and there is the evidence for all to see, and it is not a list of "college kids who will not bother to vote" or whatever the excuse du juor might be. It is a lsit of rank and file American citizens, getting excited about being Americans.

[Rhys]

The guy kept trying to get the guest to say Ron Paul is racist and the girl got all excited when the guest said Ron Paul is in trouble in his own district. I've read countless times that Paul wins hands down and the dems don't even run an opponent against him anymore.

I listen to a lot of NPR, but it is very biased and leftist. I really like NPR but you know have to know what you're getting... a global, socialist and populist agenda.

Why don't they talk about Huckabee shielding his dog torturing son from the law?
