The Media Blackout of Ron Paul

On August 19, 2011, in 2012 Election, Analysis, Opinion, Sound Off, by ConsiderLiberty

The mainstream media, like many other things in our Republic is failing to do its job.  The primary purpose of newspapers and news broadcasts is to collect information, verify its accuracy, and present it in a neutral light to the masses.  One news company likes to remind us of this frequently with their slogan “Fair [...]
