The crowd booed Ron Paul on cue!

[Ninja Homer]

Ron Paul was booed when he said that 70% of Americans want the troops home. Before the crowd started booing, you can hear somebody on a mic booing. Watch this, and you'll hear somebody with a mic (Rudy?) booing at 3:39 and the crowd starts to boo on cue a second later:

Also, after that segment, it seemed pretty clear to me while watching it live that the cheering for Ron Paul was faded out. You can even hear a change in the echo on the mic when Brit Hume starts talking. I'm still looking for an online version of this where the cheering hasn't been edited out so I can listen to it again, but that was my first impression of it.

If anybody can youtube that whole segment, including the question Brit Hume asked after Ron Paul spoke, it would be much appreciated!

That is true and disturbing. You can actually hear someone cue the booing!

Yep I hear it. Thanks for pointing this out.

Ok... I am an audio engineer, I do sound at concerts, and I work at a broadcast facility and I do live/remote broadcasts.

There is no way to tell where the boo was coming from. They had crowd mics pointed into the audience and if the person who started booing was sitting very close to the crowd mics, then it would've been picked up the loudest.

The real question to ask was "did the initial booing go out over the sound system in the room"? Because that would narrow it down as to whether it might have been coming from stage or not.

Off topic but were you the guy doing the sound system in the War Memorial Auditorium?

I was there in the debate and can tell you that the booing came concerted group of people sitting in the back left of the hall. It was not widespread at all.

Yes - I was one of the key players for the Nashville rally. I did the audio for the band prior to RP taking stage.

 

[SwooshOU]

Is it that far-fetched to believe they booed on cue when Ron Paul said something that most of them disagreed with?

Not EVERYTHING is a conspiracy.

 

[steph3n]

i can tell you where it came from, it came from the GOP leaders on the front row, which were NEAR to the mics

 

[alien]

It is good to have so many people in here that are that close in working with the campaign efforts. I mean, I am doing my part with donations, recruiting, etc. but I wish I had the funds to travel and help with the rallys and such. Of course if I had that much money it would probably be better used to just donate it anyway.

a few in the front too

 

[winston84]

Yes I can hear the "cue boo" but I don't know that signals the rest of the crowd to boo as well.

They are (or used to be) called "Clappers".
Hired by management to look really cool, hang out together in the back of the room and clap wildly for a bad act, in the hope that the audience thinks they are missing something and end up buying it.
or
Hired by management to visit a competitor, to look really cool, hang out in the back of the room and boo wildly for a good act, in the hope that the audience thinks they are missing something and end up hating it.

A very old opinion manipulation device. It's effective because people tend to be insecure in their own judgement - they shouldn't! Today, 'experts' play a similar role.

Disclaimer: Note. that I would never accuse the hard working, independent, free and fair mainstream media to use that old trick.
That would be outrageous conspiracy stuff and we can't allow that...

Don't let facts get in the way of the daily Ronpaulforums conspiracy.

I think the theory that the initial boo is a cue holds water.

It is a quiet, monotonous short boo, which is immediately followed by the select group referred to earlier in this thread.

If someone feels strongly enough about a comment to boo, they do not boo like that. Listen to it several times.

What is the first thing that comes to your mind. To me, it was that the person booing does not have any emotion behind it,
seems a bit odd for someone who is the first to boo. Think about it.

It is also such an odd time to boo, it makes no sense at all.

Too bad that MSM's dirty tactics simply do not work on a population which is thinking for itself.

The scary part is that it is becoming increasingly apparent that the only viable remaining options that MSM and elites have in protecting their ill gotten gains involve the use of violence. However, before it gets to that stage, you can count on heavy arm twisting and back room deals done in relation to primary delegates and primary vote counting.

Yup i heard that aswell

When the first guy booed, then the whole crowd booed at him
hmm fox news has no right to do this.

oh and if you hear them booing you can tell theres something not right with there booing.

And also to make a point there booing doesnt last very long.

 

[Primbs]

I don't think the first boo was connected to second group of people. The second group does sound like a cheerleading squad for one of the other candidates.

They all piled on really quickly.

The louder boos do sound orchestrated from one section of the room.

Pretty much, yeah. The "cue boo" booing is generally a spontaneous response to something the "booer" finds objectionable (a bad play call). This boo is much more anticipated and deliberate in its delivery.

I caught the cued booing as well. Very creepy

Need to make sure we have people ready with digital video cameras to catch them in the act next time. Expose them for the political world to see.
