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

[Xyrus2]

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.

I would not have moved. In fact, I would tell them flat out that any attempt to physically remove me from my spot will be interpreted as an assault, in which case I will exercise my right to self-defense to the best of my capacity. I would also inform them that they have the right to call the police and explain to them why I should move, considering that freedom of speech is guaranteed by the Constitution.

But that's just me.

so you post random quotes and I'm suppose to believe you?

 

[austinchick]

who the f**k does that reporter think he is to order your around like that???

 

[jsu718]

This is why the signs need to be EVERYWHERE. Every shot of every news story. They can't air the story if the signs are there, well pretty soon there would be no stories to air. They would have to air the stories with the signs in them.

 

[MelissaCato]

I would have stayed.

 

[Signzit]

your weakness makes me very mad at you.

 

[Virginia Martin]

Don't give any ground. If they won't air their footage because of Ron Paul signs then his signs should be everywhere. It helps Ron Paul for them to not be able to get their reports on the air. Use force on them like they use force on us.

For documentation purposes on the timeline, can you provide a more exact time this happened. And, do you know the affiliate's call letters and/or the reporter's name that you spoke with?

12 PM, and couldnt tell you the reporters name, but I can give you a pretty accurate description: DUMB BLONDE.

So we moved.

What this on private or public property? This could have been an interesting situation.

Property of the University, which is a Public school.

your weakness makes me very mad at you.

+1 WTF, MOVE?

I would have moved them in the background of every shot!

 

[kathy88]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write that up and send it to EVERY newspaper oped vehicle in your state. I'll do it for you if you like.

 

[Highland]

Very scary how ugly it is getting out there...if they and we are not careful...we could see a full blown Revolution with a capital R! I am praying for our country...Lady Liberty is sinking!

 

[Pauliana]

Gee, so you obliged so they would air a Huckabee story? Way to go...

 

[ArrestPoliticians]

We wanted to get inside for the actual speech anyway, sue me. We handed out hundreds of slimjims at the rally. It was one of the few times a group of enough republicans are in one place long enough to target in a place like Maryland.

 

[Patriot123]

...What, is CNN a part of the federal government now? You moved? I would have stood my ground and told the guy to go get another story that didn't include Huckleberry.

 

[sophocles07]

Man..if they don't like RP signs in the background I would make sure there were signs every time they tried to do a story on ANYTHING.

YES.

I mean literally (as I’m sure you did).

so you post random quotes and I'm suppose to believe you?

Though it’s random, it would not surprise me if these quotes were true.

your weakness makes me very mad at you.

I agree with you in principle, but let’s not be too harsh on the original poster. It was a confrontation with professional media personnel; he didn’t know rules, etc. (I’m assuming). Give him the benefit of the doubt on knowing what to do.

But

Next TIME

DONT MOVE


But also:

WHO is this reporter? (I know you’ve already answered this)

BUT you should be able to look at the current CNN storyreporters and tell us who the bitch is.

They only have a limited supply. Look over CNN’s supply and tell us who it was. IF AT ALL POSSIBLE (WHICH IT IS IF YOUR ENCOUNTER OCCURRED).

 

[Doktor_Jeep]

Now now. Be nice to the media people.
Being nice to them won't tip them off to the Nuremburg-style trials that await them after America is liberated from what THEIR complicity turns this country into. If you start getting rough with them, then they might split right before the leviathan they cast their lot with goes down.

 

[p5yph3r]

I guess we're all contrarians...

quit being a contrarian. Any 10 year old can read between the lines here. Why is it that the piece wouldn't air because of Ron Paul signs in the background?

So someone has a conflicting opinion with you, and you imply that they have less common sense than a 10 year old and attempt to ridicule them, because they point out the misleading title of your post? At what point did you think the MSM was ever giving us fair coverage? To point out an extreme case of irony, you're on the forums of the biggest contrarian in Congress. This is why he's not winning; he refuses to join the rest of the herd, and so is ridiculed. I hope this helps clear some things up for you.

This, from the same chap who tried to pimp "Jesse Ventura for anti-establishment prez in 2012". Your OP, your contrarian remark, and your assumption that every person that works for a news organization is "in on it" shows your lack of understanding on what real free speech is. Somebody pass this guy some more Ron Paul.
