Shall we bomb AP for this flagrant disregard for fairness?

Yahoo! just had this article on their front page for about 5 minutes, then replaced it with some story about how Richardson wants to "overhaul" the Patriot Act.

Jerry Yang is herbrew?

such ignorance on this forum. You people really shouldn't smear Ron Paul by using a forum in his name to spread your anti-Semitism

Not to mention that this is an AP story. Yahoo just carries most AP stories.

The good thing is its plain for everyone to see. Own Yahoo stock sell it. Have FOX and CNN on your cable, block it. The people trying to keep him out of debates and forums and news are showing themselves to be what few of us knew, the msm tied to politicians like Pravda! Its by these very actions the typical guy that never believed it or thought people were conspircacy nuts, sees it with his own eyes, its a good thing. It proves they are scared just like an Ames Iowa fixed election straw will prove it. Fear not and march forward.

The former Ron Paul article morphed into an Edwards article. It was crazy.

Yahoo is the absolute worst.

While this is bad, it's probably just an oversight. The AP recently included him on a summary of Q2 campaign contributions that snubbed Tancredo and Hunter, so it's not anything personal. Lets just remind them to include him.

They were probably getting too many click thru's --- and thus they relized that their 'trying' to be fair will backfire if too many people actually read about him.

So, its okay to post a story... and say "yeah, we post about him..." but if it was generating too much notice, they take it down.... its not what they wanted..

lame on them... really really lame.

Kind of like when Ron Paul mentioned "rich white people from the suburbs" during the 65 minute google interview.

Yes, Yahoo likes to do that with the disappearing articles. It's a regular thing. And I'm not talking just about Ron-Paul-related articles. Anything that slips through that they decide they don't want people to know, or which has a different slant than they want to convey, doesn't stay there long (or changes substantially).

Thanks for saving this article for us. :)

Yahoo buries their form for contacting them so deeply, it's really irritating to find it. I just emailed them. You should be able to go here and click "Contact Customer Care" at the bottom of the page and do the same if you want to.

Have you ever tried to contact Yahoo? It's not easy. Do you have an email address to send a comment to their news department? If so, please post.

I just mentioned that they left out Dr. Paul and asked them to please include him. I also referenced the url of the article. That's about it.

I note that Paul is also excluded from an important article at http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/specials/interactives/wdc/08issues/index.html?SITE=YAHOO&SECTION=HOME

The "Paul has more cash than McCain" headline was actually on Yahoo's main page this Sunday. Not sure for how long, but it was there.

There is such a huge difference between the news I get from the internet and the news I get from the old media. I have my "Ron Paul" news alerts sending me piece after piece of good news...then I turn on the TV and see nothing.

Sigh..

In all fairness, Ron Paul news alerts tend to play up news that shouldn't always make the 10:00 broadcast. There are certain examples of bias, but most of the news that we get are campaign insider briefings. As with all the other political campaigns out there, insiders get a lot of positive news from the campaign. I'm sure even the Gilmore campaign was feeding a lot of positive news to their people.

Be that as it may, I sent hannity@fox.com the story showing that the military is donating to Ron Paul. Just to make sure he knows about it, you know.
