Biggest South Carolina endorsement treated to near blackout coverage

[Warrior_of_Freedom]

That related article is just lovely.
"Man kills 2, then self. By the way, he was a Ron Paul supporter."
"Man rapes woman in the produce section of a super Walmart. He has donated to the Ron Paul campaign in the past."
"Woman microwaves her baby, then eats it. She knew who Ron Paul was."

Smear article on right column reported to Examiner for abuse.

I think it will be reported on tomorrow. I'd wait til then before melting the servers.

Goto yahoo and search "Ron Paul Tom Davis".

Barely any mention.

Did any local tv outfits broadcast any of this?

Better question: Why didn't "the campaign" do it 2008 style, record it and upload it to youtube themselves? It's 2012, not 1996.

Examiner needs to be educated that slander libel and defamation of character are litigable offenses.

Go here to report that 'linked' article as abusive and slanderous:

I reported the article and said the following:

What Joe Newby fails to disclose is that he and Jere Brower are friends as indicated on their facebook pages. Also missing from this article is the fact that they are both members of the facebook page "Stop Ron Paul 2012".

You can see original screen shots of Joe Newby "liking" Jere Brower's idea of dressing up as KKK members.

www.lacrossewatchdog.org/2012/01/anti-ron-paul-group-plans-false-flag.html

Disgusting.

Nor is there a source for these alleged threats other than Jere Brower's claim.

You will also notice that many of Joe Newby’s articles are Ron Paul hit pieces.

Here is the Tom Davis endorsement video. Let's pimp it much as possible. If you have Facebook etc and post it abroad, then we can see that it gets as many hits as possible. Hopefully it will makes it's rounds amongst voters in South Carolina. Here is a thread to the Tube.....

115 articles, including Politico, CNN, Washington Post, ABC, and the AP. Chill out, people.

That's all well and good, but Americans don't read. Where's the broadcast news coverage? If he was endorsing anyone else CNN would have had cameras rolling the whole time. Fortunately the local news stations will probably report on it, but what about all the people that don't watch the local news, opting only for cable news?

It appears that the offending article is no longer the 'next' article from that page!

My guess is the media are blacking it out because they knew with that endorsement it would put Paul at or above Romney. Which is why just a little bit later they sacrificed a rook by Huntsman dropping out so they could focus on that and give Romney a better stand with Huntsman's "endorsement". Killing two birds with one stone as they always try to do.

Libel, not slander. Libel! If you report it, make sure to report it as such.

not exactly unexpected.....

 

[Lord Xar]

Well. They knew for some time he was gonna endorse so perhaps they have a radio or t.v. ad ready to go
