Fox News is Disgusting
Full disclosure: I am not currently a Ron Paul supporter. Nor am I a registered Republicrat or Democan. Moreover, my readers will know that I hardly discuss politics here and that’s largely because I see politics as a put-your-money-where-your-mouth-is kind of activity, and talk is particularly cheap in that domain. However, being that I DO blog about media, and being that I do think Ron Paul is an intelligent man worthy of respect, the treatment he received on Fox News is worth objecting to. Over on the Daily Paul, there is a video post of an interview with some ass from Fox News and Ron Paul. I think my favorite part is when the journalist asks “I want to remain clear, you’re against taxes.” This is neither clarifying anything or even a reasonable representation of anything that Ron Paul had said up to that point. Either this journalist did no research before meeting Ron Paul, or he has an agenda set by Fox to obfuscate the positions of candidates that Fox does not approve of, or he’s an idiot. Whichever one it is, he should not be on television reporting the news.
