How does FOX News keep getting away with this?

    Look below, this is an AP press release.

    Take a look at what the "International Herald Tribune" page says.

    Now take a look at the "FOX News" page, and see what is missing. :rolleyes:

    If Ron Paul was in last place overall, I might accept you saying that he didn't deserve the mention. Even then though, it's editing an Associated Press story, altering the content from its original state. But that's not the case.

    Both articles mention Duncan Hunter, not leaving him out of the FOX story. You don't see that as bias at all? Duncan Hunter, the guy who was non-existent in Iowa, state polls, national polls, fund-raising, and pretty much every metric people use to talk about Paul not being a front-runner? Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to knock the guy, but when the story leaves him on and omits Paul, when Paul has Hunter beat in EVERY statistic of comparison, it is clear bias.

    Your quitter like attitude says mountains about you, I've told you this before you seem like the type of person that rather take it up the ass than stand up for yourself. I suggest you apply your own advise to yourself and quit coming here and making stupid posts.

    That's funny, because you picked Brownback in a poll and/or thread some time ago. ;) :D

    I hear ya, but the American Revolution would never have been won if someone told Washington and his soldiers, "The British run the system, you know how it works. You're wasting your time. Pay your f**king taxes."

    It's not just about winning. It's about people actually giving a sh*t about politics in this country again. The voter turnout in Iowa was really big, and they are claiming to be running out of ballots in NH today. America is getting fired up again, and it's the "Change" candidates who are getting all of the attention.

    Something is going on when you see all of the animals in the forest run through your camp. It might just be that once again, someone has set a brushfire in the minds of men.

    Lets see...everybody here knows you are a tool, yet you still keep posting garbage and wasting your time. I say I'm trying to save you the heart ache...stop wasting your time posting here as nobody cares what you have to say and you will continue to mean nothing as you do stand for nothing, so does that describe you well? Since you stand for nothing and what you say means nothing that why don't you quit posting since you are IRRELEVANT?

    Well I guess Rob would have been one of those guys cowering in his house saying "Don't fight them. Just do what they say!" People who don't vote piss me off, it's just disgusting and irresponsible. Apathy is one of my personal pet peeves, and apathy and ignorance to the government and politics which run our lives is just despicable. What a waste to society.

    Dude, omitting someones name from election results is absolutely f*cked up. Regardless of what chance you think someone has. That is not reporting the news.

    ROTFLMAO

    Sam dropped out a couple months ago, endorsed McCain. He wasn't polling well, but I think it may have been that either his fundraising dried up, or he didn't feel confident he would get the social conservative vote (which Huckabee has now picked up).

    I love when P&R is actually talking about Politics. Religion always gets really ugly and divisive.

    It's more like suppressing the news and cherry picking the information they want the masses to read and see, thats the problem with Faux News (among other things).

    Is that as opposed to the "media elites" who, in a recent U.S. presidential election, voted 86% Democrat, 7% Republican? Yeah, that's really makes me confident that I'm receiving "fair and balanced" reporting on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, etc. :rolleyes:

    You guys are seriously cracking me up here. I have a few words for you...."YOU DON'T MATTER"

    Geeze, it's almost like you guys have no idea how American politics works. YOU don't get to choose who becomes president! It's just a fact...sorry if this is news to you.

    I'll agree, Ronny Baby is probably the best candidate at the moment. But we all know how that ends.... :( :(

    Son, that is just how it works!
