CNN reporter admits to me that there is an anti-ron paul agenda

[ArrestPoliticians]

So the RP masses were out in full force today at the Huckabee Rally at U Maryland. On TV, you will not see the two gigantic RP signs at the rally, but they were there. Me and a couple friends took signs and stood a good distance behind an unnoticed CNN TV crew filming outside the rally location. Here is the conversation I had with the reporter when she asked me to come talk to them:

Me: "whats wrong?"

CNN: "move the signs"

Me: " Whats wrong? I see reporters with signs behind them all the time? We can move back if you want."

CNN: "They wont air the story with those signs in the background"

Me: "these particular signs?"

CNN: "trust me, i've done plenty of Ron Paul rallies, they wont air the story with those signs in the background."

Me: "So you admit there is an agenda?"

CNN: " No, I just want the story to air."

Me: "I dont mean you, I mean the people at the top who wont air your story"

CNN: "No, just move."


So we moved.

you're probably right. We wanted to go wave signs at huckabee too though, and there were cops there.

For real, especially when this is a HUCKABEE RALLY that they supposedly wouldn't air because of a sign in the background. Let em cut Huck if they want to. But to MAKE you move when you have no legal obligation to do so? FUCK them. Let the cops show up!

I can believe that the OP is telling the truth.

Look at the backwards apology this one newspaper made a couple of days ago. The implication is that the media consciously made a decision to ignore Ron Paul:

Ron Paul Supporters, We Were Wrong

The decision to ignore Paul was consciously and deliberately made due to the fact that Paul had not generated the kind of broad-based national support that John McCain, Mitt Romney or Mike Huckabee had. We, like other media outlets, viewed him as an oddball candidate, not in step with his party and without national name recognition.

Yes, I probably would have gone to jail. She can move if she doesn't like the background in her shot.

[Ex Post Facto]

lol, I would have moved in front of the camera everywhere they went and blocked their shot. Call the police have them make a report.
