Jon Stewart: Why is Everyone Still Ignoring Ron Paul? - Entertainment - The Atlantic Wire
During Fox News’ coverage of the last CPAC straw poll I’ll never forget how they were predicting who was going to win. Markedly absent from their predictions was the man who won. I posted a thread at the time, and I was told I’m crazy. I was told Fox loves ole Paul.
The entire media has marginalized and trivialized Ron Paul’s campaign constantly. Could you imagine anyone else doing as well as Paul and get absolutely zero national attention?
I feel like I’m living in bizarro world as Jon Stewart once again shows he has more intellectual and journalistic credibility than most of the media. Say what you will, he is obviously biased, but he is consistent and blatantly honest about his positions.
Dick Durbin was on the Daily Show two weeks ago and Stewart, the only person in the ‘media’—and he isn’t technically in the damn media—to ask Dick if not passing a budget for the three years out of fear of losing Congressional seats while Democrats’ had a super majority in Congress had any culpability in the debt ceiling debate.
Oh, his answer is priceless and I attempted to upload it to YouTube but apparently Viacom believes anything with Stewart’s face is copyrighted.
