OMG: Fox forces removal of Ron Paul clip from YouTube!

Fox is just a propaganda machine, and Ron Paul does not drink their Kool-Aid. When they tried to create fear over the non-incident in with the Iranian Gunboats, he shot it down. Even Democracy Now on LinkTV stated the following about Ron Paul and this hoax:

JUAN GONZALEZ: Gareth Porter, I’d like to ask you, I was watching the Republican debate last night on Fox News and was astonished to see one of the moderators spend quite a bit of time on this topic, questioning every one of the candidates as to whether they believe the Navy commander on the scene did the right thing by not blowing the Iranian boats out of the water. Surprisingly, only Ron Paul, the maverick, even questioned some of the facts of the incident as reported. Your response to this suddenly becoming a topic for the presidential debates?

GARETH PORTER: Well, I think it’s astonishing that you have this incident being regarded as a test of whether the United States is being belligerent enough, when the commanders of the ships themselves clearly did not regard this as a threat to the safety of their ships. This is the point, again, that the commander of the 5th fleet made very clearly. He was asked by reporters whether the commanders were close to firing on the Iranian ships, and he said, “No, that was not the case,” that at no point were they about to fire on the ships and that they did not feel threatened by the Iranian boats. Bear in mind, what has not been reported by the media, that these are essentially small speedboats that are at most armed with machine guns, not with any weapons that were capable of harming those ships.

If they are attacking us this much and censorsing Ron Paul this bad that means we have struck a chord with them and they are running scared. Fox News dosen't know what to do. They exclude him from a debate and get bashed, they let him on a debate and still get bashed. I believe the tides are turning finally. We are making a difference and all we can do is push this further and farther than we have before. The seeds of liberty have been planted and its growing like kudzu!! More and more everyday. The elites have no idea what to do. If they attack us we only grow stronger. If they ignore us we only grow stronger. If they laugh at us then we get angry and grow even stronger! There is no stopping this movement. Now its the people's turn to be heard at last!

As the title implies, looks like this is the 2nd most digged item in the last 30 days. If it keeps growing like this, that would be awesome.

Maybe this will become as viral as the HD-DVD thing with the string of hex numbers that happened a while back!

After reading this thread, I checked Fox News' schedule for this weekend and they are not going to replay the SC debate. At least it's not scheduled.

With all their past debates, they replayed them during the weekend.

They really have no more credibility. And frankly, the candidates that joined in the laughing and snickering at Ron Paul should be ashamed of themselves. The have demonstrated not only in their records, but with their childish behavior that they are not fit for the office of president.

I just wrote a piece documenting the whole break-down of events.
I typed-out the entire transcript of that segment, so you can read Paul's words.
And it has a good, non-YouTube link to the clip.

Ok, this sucker's at 642 DIGGs and has not become popular. I'm starting to wonder what's wrong with my DIGG!!

in San Diego who only saw the re-broadcast of the Faux SC debate and when I talked about Ron Paul's answer to the electability question, my friend said he didn't see that in there. I can't confirm that it wasn't there, but he was familiar with all of the other questions that Paul answered.

If Faux is re-broadcasting the debate and editing out Ron Paul, the viewers should be informed and the world should know. It's as big as them excluding him.

he has both the original and re-broadcast versions on his dvr and says the clip was removed from later airings.

Did anyone Tivo both airings for comparison?

This sounds like a rumor/scam to me. I bet someone made this up to whip Paul supporters into another conspiracy frenzy. It's a very easy thing to do.

Someone make a flash video with all the talking heads and put the audio to it so that FIX news can't claim copyright infringement even though case law has been proven that they cannot.

Also, Ron Paul should have added to the end of his response:

"Now that I have answered your question, answer one of mine, After all the electioneering atempts FOX has made towards silencing my message, can you honestly sit there and call yourselves a credible media outlet?"

ahh I would have loved tohear the roar of the crowd and the look on their faces.

I watched and videotaped the debate, but I didn't see the re-broadcast. Anyone have a link to show the "electability" question was edited out so it's more than a rumor? I have it saved as an flv file, so I can repost it any time if it gets removed. I posted it here: http://youtube.com/watch?... (This is my first post; I hope everything shows up correctly.)

Digg it up people, with a vengeance

we will NOT be silenced

by "they" I mean all old media - but Fox has been the worst offender mainly because their viewers (conservatives) would normally be the most receptive to Paul's message, so they try to shut him out, and the mocking, and censoring, and not reporting by fox and all big media backfires on them.
The "electability" question resulted in Ron Paul's greatest answer in any debate so far - so they will try and censor - and the unintended consequence is that it will get more attention and will get people thinking "why was this done?"

But I think the route they are taking was strategically the best for them, because if they treated Ron Paul fairly and reported his every move like the others, he would be about 70% in the polls and probably have half the democrats as well.

So we are still winning, but their tactics are just slowing us down a little.

I don't know how to do this, but someone needs to send the video link to all the other news outlets. I would love to see this clip played over and over again. At the very least have one of the other networks expose Fox for its underhandedness in cutting the clip from its re-airing of the "debate."

...that this removal from YouTube was really done at the behest of FOX? Might it be possible that it was yanked due to someone else's complaint?

I see the clip on youtube. Looks good. How do we know that fox has done something wrong? It has been claimed that they clipped this question from the re-run but how do we know this?

My response in the comments box:

You cannot silence the idea of truth, justice, and freedom. If Fox News takes this video down they admit they are racist and beat their wives. It will be a total submission of guilt on behalf of Murdoch that they have a goal to censor quite possibly the greatest statesman of our time.
Don't agree with me?

They don't care about you either, your opinion doesn't matter to them. It doesn't matter if you like Thompson or Huckabee or Mitt, they have their own agenda at hand and your opinion doesn't matter.

The fact that they have Americans fighting each other makes it easier to divide and conquer. Why are we, as Americans, bred to believe that although we have different opinions, that we can't at least uphold the law of the land? Our god given rights, as written in our great Constitution.

We live in a society bred in hatred, Bill O'Reily vs. Olbermann, Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. White. It makes things simple for a controlling government if it can divide the masses.

If we fight each other, calling each other names and cannot unite against this tyranny, we have already lost.

We must as a society rise up and unite, even if you don't like Ron Paul most agree that his voice has a right to be heard. It has a right to be heard just like your voice has a right to be heard.

Well, Fox News is deleting this clip, omitting it from their rebroadcasts because it calls out the sheer insolence they have for the democratic process. They don't care about our great Republic, all they care about is money and power.

Money and power, power and money, money to buy the silence of truth and power to control our Countries future.

My response to people that think that this is just a joke is one Paul said Romney when Romney made a snarky remark to Paul at the debates.

"Keep Laughing, Buddy"

As far as I know it's fair use and has been ruled as such under the law.

a sound clip of it, just incase, and do it in a hurry...

The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. James Madison

Send news of this to Fox's competitors? Like CNN and MSNBC?? Mass of emails reporting this might make it on the main stream, and out to all the viewers that don't have the internet!

Youtube users wont let something like this die. There are already dozens of copies of the original video being posted as I type this, but if Fox is serious about this they probably will not last several hours, heres a copy of the video that (currently) works :

Dugg it and downloaded a working copy of the video in case it happens again.
