Newt Gingrich Says He Will Skip Debates if Audiences Can't Participate 1/24/12

Mr. Gingrich, a former House speaker, on Tuesday morning threatened not participate in any future debates with audiences that have been instructed to be silent. That was the case on Monday, when Brian Williams of NBC News asked the audience of about 500 people who assembled for a debate in Tampa to hold their applause until the commercial breaks.

@garrethdavis Nope sorry it was from 8pm central time til 8:56pm is when the final question was done.

Brian Williams and NBC News limiting the free expression of the audience at last night’s debate is the typical behavior of seditious progressive democrats that promotes political segregation which fosters totalitarianism within the lame stream media especially ‘Progressives Blogs’ that have little tolerance for conservative thought or talking points.

@dugfmjamul Do some research and look into the 2008 debates. It is up on drudgereport and they had many debates like last nights on last election cycle.

i think if the audience wants to cheer laugh, or boo... there really is no way to stop it... rules or not. Ron Paul 2012

[thorspinky]

Without the cheers he knows he'll just look like a bigot.

[2012weareone]

Not only did he get an applause, but he was the only one that got an applause. And the faces of the puppet wanna bees when that happened was priceless.

[2012weareone]

even though there was a no clapping during debate in place...I found it just heart warming that Ron Paul did get an applause, Ron Paul 2012.

In my opinion, the people in the auditorium in no way represent the majority of Americans so yes, keep them quiet! :) I do not want to hear any more boos for the golden rule.

[gcatledge]

They should be quiet,so ppl can listen to issues at hand and think..should'nt be like a high school pep rally...GO RON PAUL 2012

[chopin999]

[patsy128]

Good! Give it up...no one wants to hear what you have to say anyway!

Gingrich bused people to his speaking stops , so there was always somebody when he talked. I got the impression that the SC debate , it was his bused/paid support. So , not only was the "Wife" question staged , to allow him free time and to spin it , the crowd was fake/staged.

Just how gulable are people? CNN showed that debate 7 more times before the election. A debate where their Moderator was ripped a new one. If it wasn't staged , they wouldn't have promoted it so much.
