Local news station reported on all but Paul regarding the debate just now.

Hey, I know some of us don't like Alex Jones but this is funny:

Thanks to Donna Brazile who brought up the caucuses favor Paul (when King? was trying to say the schedule after Florida favors Romney). Then King admits that Paul is in for the long haul and goes back to ignoring him. 1 mention in the entire post debate segment.

Let's all thank @donnabrazile (https://twitter.com/#!/donnabrazile) for attempting to bring up Dr. Paul. She's always been fair/kind towards Ron when given the opportunity to discuss him.

As for @andersoncooper (who moderated the post-debate analysis), give him hell!

CNN is getting raked over the coals on twitter

 

[WD-NY]

As soon as someone mentions Ron Paul, David Gergen immediately says "Romney" as if it is a reflex, and they don't talk about him.

We need a video with this script from some of the experts here like chainspell.

Open with Ron's answer on corporate media in the beginning, followed by King getting booed and Ron saying he was a doctor.
Then cut to the CNN post game show. Play the show in fast forward, and have each of the four candidates name on the screen with a running number next to how many times they have been mentioned.

Then cut to the Anderson Cooper video where he blasts Ron Paul for claiming that the media is biased towards him and becomes indignant.

That goes viral.

THIS = Genius Kramer!

Thank Donna Brazile for what? She had and hour to talk about him...she is no different...no...she deserves no thanks...

how can i see cnn getting raked over the coals?

 

[KramerDSP]

Just search "Ron Paul" on twitter and you will find people asking CNN why they did not cover Ron Paul .

 

[Celes]

This is terrible, I meant to leave an hour and a half ago to write my damn 5 page paper. I can't justify to myself anything but this Revolution; nothing else seems important!

 

[Mckarnin]

Anyone know what Donna Brazile said? I don't get CNN and the stream I was watching ended.

Also, any twitter experts..I haven't been doing this long, is there any way to see @CNN comments that people who you are not following made or @KellyClarkson or are @ comments private and just for the recipient?

 

[InTradePro]

Anyone else notice Santorum say about he was the "only one" who stood against a democrat and won? He didn't realise that Dr Paul stood in a long term democratic seat and then won it 12 times!

 

[WD-NY]

Someone post the raw video, and I will make the most epic version of this video you have ever seen.

The only thing I would add to Kramer's fantastic outline:

Donna Brazile's attempt to bring up Paul followed almost immediately by John King (or was it Gergen?) cutting her off -> shot of Gloria Berger grinning -> commercial break = the knock-out shot before closing the video out with Anderson's rant against Ron.

 

[NorfolkPCSolutions]

You boys and girls are slacking in here.

The thread is only 190 pages long.

Just kidding - way to go, campaign! Good job, Doctor Paul!

It's all moot if I can't get the footage. It's replaying but I don't have cable and don't see a stream of it, so someone record!

Ron Paul was killing democrats when santorum was still playing patty cake with his mother in the play pool

 

[ApathyCured]

I thought he did well. The only thing I thought he could have done better with was the last question: "what do you want to tell S.C.'ers so that they continue the race?"

I thought he should have really talked about how they need real changes, not the same thing as the last 6 administrations and that he is the only one that has any real plan to challenge the status quo. The other 3 candidates obv have no real plan that is any different than what has been tried over the past while.

 

[Gary4Liberty]

ya he should have quoted his own commercial about the 3 smooth talking politicians and same old same old say one thing, do another.
