    Fox News: Fair and Balanced?

    December 27, 2007
    Ron Paul to be Excluded from Next Fox News Forum
    Posted by Chris Brunner at December 27, 2007 08:08 PM

    According to the Associated Press, Fox News will be featuring a forum on January 6 which will include Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, John McCain, Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson. In an effort to be fair and balanced, the candidate who raised more money in a single day than any politician in American history will not be included.

    The 90-minute forum will air live beginning at 8 p.m. ET on the Fox News Channel and on Fox News Radio.


    UPDATE: The forum is being sponsored by the New Hampshire Republican Party. I'm told that many outraged Paul supports are emailing Fergus Cullen, who is the state party chairman.

    I think this to be absurdly unfair and unbalanced. Penalize a presidential candidate by not allowing him to join his competitors in a forum, because he raised too much $$? HA! I guess Clinton better go into voluntary exile then.

    On the positive side, this will slap them in the face and defeat their purpose. Ron Paul NOT being invited will draw more attention to him than if he were invited!

    It used to be fair and balanced.. I am not sure what the H_ll happened to FOX news .. Even Bill "O" is acting goofy ..... all of his polls only have a partial list of candidates to vote for

    Any candidate that is in the NH primary should be invited to the forum - that includes Duncan Hunter!

    Where is the link to the story, freeamerica?

    Rupert Murdoch has already donated $500,000 to hilaries campaign and plans to donate more. That must be part of the "fair and balanced" plan/agenda to make sure the weak fear the lesser of two evils and vote for a CFR candidate. Ron Paul all the way to the White House!

    My apologies for forgetting to include the link. It is true, Duncan Hunter should be included as well as Ron Paul.

    I just went to the site to get the link, and it right now it says "Stand by for an update".

    **I just added this through editing:
    I found (the author) Chris Brunner's site with the article filed:

    Since the initial site is having issues (updating).
