What’s amazing is that the mainstream media doesn’t even appear embarrassed at the way they’ve been treating Ron Paul. I suppose they think that since they’ve treated libertarians with such disdain for so long, no one will notice that they’re doing it some more to Ron Paul.
Not this time, MSM! As you no doubt know, people are noticing, especially on the Internet!
The best critique of the MSM’s treatment of Paul came from social critic and comedian Jon Stewart, who absolutely skewered the MSM on his television show. What better way to expose these people than by ridicule? Stewart’s critique has gone viral on the Internet. If you haven’t seen it, here’s the link. You will absolutely die laughing.

They’ve got two choices, which I am confident are being debated in editorial rooms and among reporters in mainstream newspapers and television networks all across America.
One choice is to go on the attack against libertarianism. But the reporters and editorial writers know that that strategy bears a big risk — that it will cause people to explore libertarianism and think to themselves, “Wow! I’m a libertarian too. I’m joining the libertarian cause.”
