View Full Version : MSNBC Bending Over Backwards to Keep From Mentioning Ron Paul

While going through the delegate tallies, the anchors on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" went through every candidate's results (even Duncan Hunter's), while completely omitting Ron Paul's name, despite the fact that he came in fifth. Mika "my hiring wasn't Beltway nepotism at all" Brzezinski didn't even blink, she's become so good at personally disavowing the unperson in the back of her mind.

Effective today, my family will no longer be receiving CNN, MSNBC, or FOX News. Good riddance to bad, and very discouraging rubbish.

I've quit watching tv. I get my news on the internet and the newspaper.

At what time did this happen? I watch Morning Joe everyday before I go to school and this would cause me to reconsider ever watching this again.

Do you have cable or dish? and how can you cancell just those news channels?

NPR was doing the same thing, which is highly unusual for them--I think the first time I ever heard the Libertarian party mentioned on the radio was there. They're starting to come around now, though... I expect they could use a little kind encouragement in this department.

Not talking about someone is one thing, but skipping over their results entirely and mentioning people both directly above them and directly below them is just an obvious bias clearly showing.

We've seen this too many times. The media empires are seriously trying to keep a lid on his ideas

They will fail of course!
