their media news when they ->? Showed they where no better than the media of North Korea when they did all they could to make sure Ron Paul didn't have a chance to be noticed by the American Public? They censored Paul & made sure he wouldn't have his say & explain why would he be a good candidate for President. He says the things that the Media & Politicians don't want you to hear which is why the media did their best to silence him. They act as if he's not even still in the running even though he hasn't dropped out. So much for Freedom of press huh? And like little robots you all accept this & not question this type of communist tactic by our own american media.
Freedom of speech & opinion gapeach so i won't shut up just b/c you don't agree with me. That's what America is all about. To be able to think to yourself & not be a robot & be forced to think the way they want you to.
 
lol actually the press has very little freedom, instead the report on what the view (public) wants to hear. so i would blame the public and not the media. the media is only trying to make money, it a business like any-other...
 
It's not so much censorship as it is a matter of cost-effectiveness for the media. Altogether there were a lot more candidates running; the total for all from both main parties plus all the splinter affiliations was more like 400 candidates altogether, and you never heard of any of them; as a matter of fact, I bet you had no idea that almost 400 people were running for President. The media simply cannot afford to cover all of them, and some of them are real wack jobs (like the guy from the Fascist Union Party who was pictured in his photo wearing an outfit that was like what a Roman Centurion would wear).

Ron Paul happenes to be on the lower edge of the media radar. The bad thing of all this is the media coverage amounts to free campaign publicity for the major couple of candidates. Yesterday I was watching the news on CNN and all day it was Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney, and nothing else. So the media with its incessant covereage of only a few helps to boost their campaigns at the cost of people like Ron Paul. Then the media declares a winner months before the election and this helps it to rake in the ad revenue.

So it's not about who is running and who is not just the top people, it's all about who will bring in the greatest viewership and thus boost ad revenue. It's all about the money, plain and simple, and Obama brings in more ad dollars for the networks than Ron Paul.

This is why no matter how it all shakes out in the end I will NOT vote for Hillary, Obama, McCain, or Romney. I am not going to give them the media satisfaction. I'll vote for someone else, even if they are long dropped out by then. To hell with the media force-fed circus.
