ron paul said he is going to sue fox

[jeffrey7]

it was a joke...jackass

 

[newbitech]

ok, here is the transcript from here.

RON PAUL: No, it didn't go that far. You know, I
realized that they really had some property rights
ability there, and I wasn't going to crash the party.
But I've been trying to figure out what to do. And I
thought, "Well, maybe I ought to sue them." And then
I thought, "What am I going to sue them on?" I've
decided what to sue them over, and that is for fraud,
because of this fair and balanced idea, you know.
So --
(Applause.)
-- I just --

 

[OptionsTrader]

Develop a sense of humor folks, lol...

 

[Danny Molina]

perhaps we should consult lawyers?

HAHAHA

Nice one!

 

[literatim]

I'd sue their asses off.

[ValidusCustodiae]

False advertising.

Fox is NOT fair and fox is NOT balanced. It isn't fair and balanced, and it isn't fair or balanced.

it could have been a joke but i think Ron Paul says things sometimes in a subtle way so you don't think he's serious but i think sometimes he really is, who knows..

hey, this whole thing could've been a blessing in disguise, i wonder if Leno would've interviewed Ron Paul if it didn't happen..

 

[Ron LOL]

I've lost count of the number of times I've had to tell the forum at large to stop donating and go buy a sense of humor instead...

Anyway, HE WAS JOKING.

 

[AggieforPaul]

It was obviously a joke, but he probably shouldn't have used it, as Fox's "fair and balanced" tagline isn't exactly a household phrase.

 

[tgannaway89]

It was a joke, he has better things to do than to play with Fox.

Ah, yes. This is the part of the civil case procedure where the plaintiff goes on a Late Night Talk Show to file his complaints against the opposing party.

After this the case is referred to the Clown Circuit Court as it undergoes the process of Cream Pie Discovery.

 

[drulay]

Not that it wouldn't be a bad media stint to pull - Paul would bring a lot more attention to himself and the disgrace of Fox News.

 

[MoneyWhereMyMouthIs2]

Sometimes I think OptionsTrader is an Infiltrator.

Sometimes, I think I'm tired of hearing crap like that.

Paul didn't say he was going to sue. He said he was thinking about it, and it was in the context of a joke anyway. The title of this thread is completely inaccurate.

Faux News: Fascist and Twisted

 

[idiom]

We aren't electing Ron Paul for his sense of comic timing.

Dude...warn me next time so I don't have a mouthful of milk the next time I read one of your posts!!!

This is the funniest thing I've read in weeks.

 

[Godbag]

it was a joke... who would want to waste their time suing fox, of course it wouldnt be a waste of time if there was a decent judge hearing the case, as soon as u said "fair and balanced" the judge would rule in your favor... watch outfoxxed.. thats why you cant sue fox...

My thoughts exactly!
