Corporate media engages in mass public deception as Congressman receives just a third of the questions given to Romney and McCain

Ron Paul was cheated for the umpteenth time last night, this time by CNN, as the corporate media once again engaged in mass public deception by advertising their spectacle as a "debate" when in fact it was nothing more than a staged punch and judy show.

CIA trainee Anderson Cooper directed just five questions at Congressman Paul as well as two half-questions, the answers to which he interrupted on both occasions.

In comparison, Mitt Romney fielded 17 questions and John McCain got 15, not including the time the two spent bickering with each other about their past statements.

Again, just as with the previous MSNBC debate and numerous others before it, Ron Paul was given less than a third of the questions as the other candidates.

The primary definition of a debate is, "A discussion, as of a public question in an assembly, involving opposing viewpoints."

Since Ron Paul is the only candidate expressing opposing viewpoints, the corporate media's deliberate ploy to relegate, marginalize and restrict his opportunities to speak amounts to overt public deception. These farces should not be referred to as debates because they are merely PR stunts that are conducted with a deep-seated bias towards the establishment candidates.

As we have repeatedly emphasized, this is how frontrunners are created, this is how the establishment promotes its own candidates at the expense of others. The only solution is to continue to strike at the root of America's corporate media monopoly by creating our own forms of media and eventually eclipsing their influence which, slowly but surely, is beginning to happen with the aid of the Internet.

The highlight of the night came when Ron Paul slammed the punch and judy spat between McCain and Romney over Iraq, both of whom fully support endless occupation, with the Senator making it clear this week that a McCain presidency would mean more wars.

  • I blame all you Ron Paul freaks that preached so loudly, but when it came time to vote, you turned lazy. My co-worker was probably one of the loudest preacher about Ron Paul, preaching his ideas 24/7 everyday for the past year. When it came time to vote, he fucking pussied out. What a bitch. And the sad thing is most Ron Paul supporters are the same. You bitches don't vote, but go and make banners and spam and graffiitti walls with "rEVOLution". Why don't you just shut the fuck up and VOTE !

  • Thats a VERY good point your making here...

    What do you think we can do to make more people vote. its the same here in denmark, at the end of the day, people do living room revolutions....

    And we all know it doesnt work!

  • He a f***king genius!!! who ever doesn't vote for him in 2012 is a complete airhead

  • Can Ron Paul be President? Only if WE give it our all. Unless you give your time, talent and money to this cause don't expect it to happen. Dr. Paul can't do it alone. It's your life, your future. Decide and then live with that decision.

    The Founding Fathers pledged "our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor". It will take nothing less today. Unless we are willing to go big we may as well stay home and wait for the worst. Let's just do it. Give generously of your time, talents and money

  • @DeweyAveSmokeShop I firmly believe that much of the hardcore supporters did not vote. I don't believe it was rigged. I also believe there were not enough ron paul supporters. I really do not believe Ron Paul had the majority of votes but there was a conspiracy against him. Maybe if it was a close marginal run. But Ron Paul just did not have enough people that believed in his ideas. Which is sad. Hopefully 2012 will be better.

  • @hivelocity100 wrong. most DID vote. Most fought the delegation process only to see how rigged things are. Some states they were aligned to win, when McCain people just walked out stalemating the process. Wake up and see the owners of this country does NOT want Ron Paul in office.

  • 'YyeaHHhhhhhhhBoYYYYYYYYyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyY!

  • fuck the mainstream media

  • Yes the corporate media is trying to stop ron paul!.. even though he's nothing more than a talking head for corporate interests...

    Give it up folks, he's a fake alternative for a gullible public.

  • "Bernanke 'fixed' the problem with the help from the industry and secured the economy for another few months until the instability works itself out." Is that right?
