REVPAC Calls for Removal of Dana Bash!

[Constitutional Paulicy]

Why not gotta start somewhere.

 

[walt]

To get action, you need to boycott the advertisers on CNN. Period.

 

[Tyler_Durden]

Purchase airtime or send brochures to expose media bias and lies.

The Corporate Media is one of the biggest adversaries in this Revolution.

stupid...ron should be able to handle the media by now.

he's been in politics for over 20 years. he doesn't need handlers cancelling interviews or organizations lobbying against the media on his behalf.

this will only bring more bad press and will be otherwise inconsequential.

Yep that's right. Let the media get away with tainting the most important election of our time.

I agree to some extent, but keep in mind that newstations are highly competitive with each other. I wouldn't put it past one of the networks to jump on CNN seeing as it's one of their cable rivals. Better to attack one station individually than make broad sweeping complaints about 'the MSM'.

 

[MyEyesTheyBurn]

Well played.

Words... "Republicans are scared and think he will go far, just like I think he will go far." ... words.

"I’m sure you talk to Republicans who are worried as well, just like I am, that Ron Paul will continue on long into the spring and summer."

 

[airborne373]

I concur with RevPac.

Can we throw Gloria Borger into the deal also? She's just as bad as Dana Bash, and has one or two major conflicts of interest as a journalist.

I am not seeing how Bash is the worst of the bunch. Not sure that singling her out is going to do any good, but who knows?

 

[HOLLYWOOD]

I wish we could get to the bottom of the Manchurian garbage. IPs, MAC addy etc...

I posted in the other thread this morning on Dana Bash and CNN HQ anchor Suzanne Spraytan and their bias nonsense in covering a Ron Paul piece. We know for a fact AGAIN, CNN edited their clip to give the wrong impression to the viewers about the media mob at Moe Joe's and Ron leaving.

Gluestick = Horse Glue aka Horse

I don't know what that means.

She is the CNN correspondent assigned to the Paul campaign. And she's practicing yellow journalism at best.

I think the benefit is the fact that while saying, "the media has a blatant anti-paul bias" sounds like a conspiracy, this accusation is much more concrete and verifiable and makes more sense to the general public than speculation about corperate interests pulling strings behind the scenes.

Yeah, Spraytan Malveaux's reporting has been particularly biased this morning.

exactly , this is exactly what we were saying with the boycott.

 

[Hoax]

because you make an example out of her.

This. She may not be the absolute worst of the bunch, but we've got concrete evidence on her. And CNN deserves to have their phone lines blown up. Do as much damage as possible as a warning to the rest of the presstitutes.

 

[WD-NY]

Why didn't RevPAC attack Huntsman right after Iowa given that RPF saw his "surge" coming from a mile away??

The fact that no one hit Huntsman on ANYTHING before today's vote = a disaster.

IF RevPAC had actually done what they are supposed to do (re: attack whoever gets in between Ron & 2nd place because a direct attack from Paul will drive up his negatives), the campaign would have come out of NH with a strong 2nd place, solid momentum and probably $1million+ dollars in new campaign contributions.

This press release = #fail

 

[ronpaulitician]

E-mail sent to RevPAC:

Pathetic move on the part of RevPAC.

She clearly meant "Just like I am talking to Republicans who are worried."

Are you guys serious? If our opponents were to parse Ron Paul's words the same way, pretty much every single one of his statements could be taken out of context, due to his frequent use of the word "but" (which, if taken literally, means "but what I said just before this line doesn't apply").

Please retract this childish Dana Bash statement. I will not donate to RevPAC again until you do so.

Sincerely,

Sebastian Janssen

Blowback can work since we are now in the spotlight:

 

[Steve-in-NY]

KNow what? I concur with RevPac.
There are quite a few anchors, "reporters" and agencies that need 100's or 1000's of calls a day, 100's and thousands of facebook posts, tweets and emails a day demanding they lose their job. In fact, this forum has a whole section specifically assigned for it.

Im in. Theres a few Im goning to email, tweet, FB message and call daily until they are gone. Them, and their bosses, producers, executives, owners, etc.
Takes me 10 minutes. I'd like to see 10,000 others follow suit.

 

[tempest]

Excellent idea (something needs to be done about her "just like I am" quip) she must be nailed for it. Having said that I dunno if specifically requesting for her dismissal is the right way of achieving that objecive. Perhaps it's more relevant to demand an explanation from CNN itself - put the entire network on trial instead of bashing Bash only.

It is HIGH TIME that we put the squeeze on the media, especially broadcast media/cable news. They are a party, they are part of the problem so attacking them is 100% fair game. Gingrich was soaring to the sky a couple of weeks ago when he picked on the media and journalists. Going down this PROACTIVE and ATTACK media mode is a win-win thing for us.
