    Ron Paul Super PAC Calls for Removal of Dana Bash

    PRWeb – Tue, Jan 10, 2012

    Revolution PAC condemns bias of top CNN Political Corespondent.

    Manchester, NH (PRWEB) January 10, 2012

    On-air comments made by CNN Senior Congressional Correspondent Dana Bash January 2 are being flagged by Revolution PAC for strong personal bias. In the statements, made on the eve of the Iowa Caucuses on “John King USA,” Bash noted her concern about the success of one particular Republican presidential candidate, U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, who is currently polling in strong second position in the Granite State.

    “I’m sure you talk to Republicans who are worried as well, just like I am,” Bash offered from New Hampshire, “that Ron Paul will continue on long into the spring and summer … He could really hurt whomever the Republican nominee is because, still, nobody thinks, even if he does well here in New Hampshire, that he will ultimately be the nominee.”

    “In America, voters rely on the media to provide objective reporting,” says Revolution PAC Chair Gary Franchi. “Editorializing like this obviously influences public perception and has no place in a hard newscast.”

    “Dana Bash’s statements are particularly disturbing,” Franchi continues, “because they fly in the face of established facts. General election polling consistently shows that Ron Paul – because of his unmatched appeal to independent and disaffected democrat voters – is the only viable candidate against Barack Obama.”

    Franchi concludes, “It is clear, when the Paul Camp has to end interviews early with her, that Dana Bash is tainting coverage of this election and deserves a reassignment, call CNN right now at 404-827-1500 and demand it.”

    Revolution PAC is supporting U.S. Rep. Ron Paul’s campaign for the Republican nomination and consistent, constitutional message with targeted TV advertising, direct mail campaigns and innovative Web promotions complemented by billboards and radio ads in key primary states. Unlimited donations by individuals, businesses and organizations are being accepted by Revolution PAC to support that effort.

      Maybe CNN can reassign their reporters? It seems Ms. Bash likrs to ask the fluff questions that have nothing to do with the issues our nation face.
      Please assign her to the Romney campaign where she can ask him the hard questions. EXAMPLE Gosh Mitt, just how much money DID you spend on your kids dental work?

      Dana Bash is a Israel Firster! No wonder why she is afraid.

      Why is anyone surprised that a shrill, shill, J.A.P. would be upset at the idea that America may no longer fight Israeli proxy wars and continue to borrow money from the Chinese to fight for Israel?

      They should fire her. Disgusting that this kind of biased coverage is coming from a a political correspondent. Not going to happen though since she's married to John King and her daddy is a producer for ABC News.

      She should be sent to Israel since she seems to care so much about them.

      No reporter is naive enough to put their job on the line. She obviously meant: I'm sure you have talked to Rebublicans, just like I have, who are worried about blah blah blah.

      Reassignment? I hope they fire her. I'm sure there are plenty of people who are currently out of work who can do a much better job than Dana Bash.
