- Major media black out Paul's effortto repeal law on interning AmericansPresidential candidate Ron Paul's bill calling for repeal of a just-enacted law giving the president and the Pentagon authority to detain Americans indefinitely on mere suspicion was ignored by the mainstream media, as a Google news search (below) shows.
No major media touched the story. Previously such media went to extreme lengths to avoid the controversy, which has raised the hackles of people on the right and left of the political spectrum.
Major media similarly played down -- to the point of brown-out -- the Stop Online Privacy Act controversy and only relented when the new media, in the form of Wikipedia and Google, mobilized netizens to contact lawmakers.
One of the things that the old media hold against Paul is his effective use of the new media, which -- to their commentators -- doesn't strike them as legitimate for a presidential contender.
Although Newt Gingrich played to a debate audience about being abused by the press, it is Paul who is consistently chiseled and maligned by the old-line media. Gingrich, on the other hand, got into an ethics uproar over taking an outlandishly large book advance from media mogul Rupert Murdoch, known for his proclivity for manipulating lawmakers on both sides of the Atlantic.
