I also just called and spoke with him at length.
An absolutely reprehensible and traitorous individual, he is. He had no reasonable defense whatsoever as he discounted the 10% Iowa vote for Paul, the huge amount of money he's raised from huge number of average Americans, and the current polling numbers in NH.
He harped on how the national Realclearpolitics polling numbers, despite my repeated characterization of the small number of sampled prospective voters as much less significant than the other metrics I presented, was/is the criterion being used for exclusion and all other metrics were irrelevant.
There was no mention of the size of the bus.
He also claimed the word 'metrics' was an invented term that had no meaning, and accused me of parroting what the websites told me to. His condescending attitude and repeated attempts to patronize me were disgusting.
He indicted my use of the term 'objective' repeatedly even as I rattled off numbers and percentages to defend the fact that Paul has demonstrable and significant public support. He continued to term my reference of reasonable metrics such as fundraising numbers, campaign donors, NH polls, and Iowa vote results as my 'opinion' instead. He told me he was fine with me forming my own opinion. I responded that such didn't seem to be the case since Fox was clearly preventing important perspectives from reaching the American people so as to prevent them from forming their own opinions.
I really believe the man is either brainwashed, in fear of his job, or perhaps even certifiable.
In the final analysis, I called him a traitor and a reprehensible individual, and mentioned that the founding fathers would be ashamed of him and of FoxNews. I also told him that I was ashamed of him, personally, as a fellow American, and ashamed of FoxNews as well. He retorted that the founders were not too keen on the media to begin with, and I agreed by explaining how he and FoxNews are the perfect illustration of exactly why they held that position.
He resented my use of the word traitor and got upset. I repeated that I did not use the term strictly out of anger, but did in actuality truly consider him a traitor to the American people. I told him I had faith (and I do) that if not in this lifetime, then certainly in the next he would reap the karma he had sown and expressed that I believed he was well aware of what he was doing, whether the decision was his or came from above.
While there are other explanations (let's face it, we all know the power-brokers behind the scenes, including Murdoch, don't want Paul's revolutionary Constitutional arguments even heard by the sheeple lest they one day be forced to answer for their legacy of bad behavior at the expense of the citizens), I think there's a chance based upon how he treated me that these people really DO NOT believe the support that exists amongst the citizens for Ron Paul has reached the threshold that endangers their business. Perhaps they think we are all unthinking parrots merely mimicking a few select intelligent Paul supporters...
We have got to hit them where it hurts. I am a long time FoxNews viewer who rarely, if ever, turned to CNN or MSNBC. I will never watch Fox again and will boycott every advertiser with the poor taste to support the repression of our democracy by advertising with Fox. AND I WILL FOLLOW THROUGH. These scumbags who are actively trying to destroy the democracy must be held to account.
I will be actively pursuing other individuals to work on a simple webform tool to broadcast advertiser boycott messages to companies that choose to continue advertising with FoxNews.
We must be dynamic in the movement to restore America to the freedoms that Franklin, Taft, and Ron Paul represent. This heinous behavior must not stand.
Anyone who has independent media contacts at quasi-high places (like local TV news or print outlets), please let me know if there is any interest [from those in decision-making position] in a debate between Mr. Moody and myself to discuss the matter publicly in any forum. I would relish the opportunity to expose this man for the absolute @ss and traitor to democracy that he is...
And I repeat that none of the other GOP traitors (yes, McCain included) will ever get my vote.
