Special Report on Fox tonight covered Gingrich’s complaint that not allowing audience participation denies free speech. I do not agree that it denies free speech. However, NOT allowing the audience to display approval and enthusiasm puts the MSM in the position of interpreting public acceptance of the candidate’s message. Stated another way, it allows the MSM to spin support for a candidate to their liking.
Audience participation cuts into the power of the MSM. The MSM has controlled information way too long. I am with Newt on audience participate, but for a different reason. We MUST defeat the press at their games.
Thank you RatRipper - right to the heart of the matter.
“”Audience participation cuts into the power of the MSM. The MSM has controlled information way too long. I am with Newt on audience participate, but for a different reason. We MUST defeat the press at their games.””
Plus, if the StateRunMedia can lull the electorate to sleep, it gives the subconscious impression that none of these candidates inspire us.
May God grant us strength, wisdom and courage.
