Ben Swann is employed by WXIX FOX19 in Cincinnati, OH, which is owned by Raycom Media.
On November 17, 2011, Ben Swann's Reality Check: An Endorsement for fairness in dealing with Ron Paul aired. I watched it live and noted that he had approximately 800 likes on his Facebook page that night. Ben now has 17K+ likes on his Facebook Page.
When I Googled him on November 17, 2011, there was very little searchable information about him. He was an obscure reporter who had recently joined FOX 19 after reporting for a small affiliate in El Paso, TX, but very little else. Google him now and see what you find....
On January 31, 2012, The Daily Show included a video clip of Ben Swann in it's segment. Today, FOX 19 basically "bragged" about it:
Reality Check with Ben featured on "The Daily Show"
Judge Napolitano has tweeted about one of Ben's Reality Check episodes (I can't locate it now).
I've tried to bring attention to Raycom Media here: Raycom Media a Possible Ally? and here: "Raycom Media has 46 Stations in 18 States!!! Get their Attention!! and here: Raycom Media in SC and FL, but it hasn't garnished alot of attention.
Raycom Media's website states, in relevant part;
Raycom Media doesn't seem to operate by the same bias rules as Fox, ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. With this increased publicity and popularity toward Ben Swann and FOX19 solely because of Ben's style of journalism, at what point do we (Grassroots, PAC's, Campaign) reach out to Raycom Media to request fair and equal journalism with all of it's 46 stations?
