Excellent report on Ron Paul's racist newsletters from a jounalistic local news station covering the number of letters, where the racist comments appear, the time line, and Ron Paul's response.

This is the first report I've seen that tries to keep the sensationalism out of it, and deal strickly with the facts. Having gone over 240 plus newsletters, these reporters find 9 instenses that can be considered racist, mostly between late 1990 and early 1991, a "Special Report" 15 months later with the most daming statements, and one more 6 months after that.

  • Nice that these folks actually know what journalism is. Too bad the MSM with all their resources wasn't able to duplicate this footwork and fulfil their most basic obligations as reporters.

  • btw, that's my local news station

    Fox 19 Cincinnati Ohio.

  • weak... crap... weak... Ron Paul 2012!

  • @LeeKwangEng

    Anything that is not immensely anti-white is now called "racist." And whites do nothing to defend themselves against the reverse-racist, pro-open borders RCC, SPLC, ADL, CAIR, MALDEF, NAACP, and hundreds of others. Libertarian Paul is pro-open borders, i-Ron-i-cally enough.

  • @Vacatino as if fucking MSM cared about doing good job at anything that doesn't promote their agenda.

  • Your suppose to show the evidence (the passages), you didn't. This is just sad. Out of all the candidates to investigate and all the real issues, this reporter wastes his time on this?!

  • what, a real reporter. say it's not so.

  • NEWT GINGRICH BEHIND THESE NEWS LETTER ATTACKS?

    James Kirchick who keeps publishing these articles about the News Letters is a “fellow” at the NEO-CONservative Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) where NEWT is a “distinguished adviser” at the DC-BASED THINK TANK behind the current campaign slandering rival candidate Ron Paul as a “racist” and “anti-Semite.”

    FDD has also received grants from the U.S. State Department.

    EXPLAIN THIS NEWT!!!!!

    DR. RON PAUL 2012!!!!!

  • Holy shit! I'm so use to seeing distorted, misleading, out right lying propaganda from the media, that this just totally blew me away when they were presenting FACTS! Ben Swan you deserve a fucking medal!!!

  • I think some people here are totally missing the point of this video. They did a great job investigating, they uncovered part of the truth and (in my opinion) vindicated Ron Paul of any racist accusations against him. The newsletters in question seem to have been written by a temporary freelancer hired by Ron Paul's editor. As far as who that person is, it's still a mystery.

  • That's what real journalism looks like! Ben Swan, you're awesome!

  • these guys are good
