Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one that notices the obvious lengths that the paleomedia go to to avoid acknowledging Ron Paul. I was watching TV at lunch this week and they showed some poll results, and Ron Paul was second in the results, after Michelle Bachman. So, does the following discussion mention Ron Paul? No, the next screen has Michelle Bachman, Perry, and Romney. It's as if they show the graph real quick and then just try to avoid even mentioning the fact that Ron Paul exists, despite the fact that he was second in the poll results on their own poll. I remember seeing exactly the same thing in 2008. Ron Paul would get 1st place in some opinion poll, but then they don't even discuss him! It's as if the media can't bring themselves to outright falsify the data, but they can't stomach actually discussing Ron Paul or acknowledging him. It would be comical in its obviousness if it wasn't so malicious. I mean, in 2008 he had a &$(* blimp, which should have been crack for the media, but I guess the blimp just had the wrong name on it, so all you got was these "oh yeah, here's a 2 second picture of the Ron Paul blimp and now, let's discuss Obama's haircut!" What I can't figure out is how this comes about; I don't like to believe conspiracy things about the media being controlled by the spooky powers but how else do they show such obvious bias toward the powers that be? What are they afraid of?
