Newsweek Interviews Ron Paul

Free Market News Network
Monday December 10, 2007

Newsweek has provided a fairly major platform, via interview format, for the views of presidential candidate and limited-government proponent Ron Paul (R-Tex). While the information contained in the interview labels Ron Paul a “libertarian” and probes the idea of running as the candidate of a third party, it also points out that Ron Paul is now running at eight percent in Iowa and is a “legit wild card’ in New Hampshire.

What is not explained in the article is the reason to feature it as the magazine has. Is it possible that a recent, flawed article that received hundreds of rebuttals had something to do with this follow-up? A recently published article, Highway to Hell, basically denied the reality of what can be seen as a huge sociopolitical event, the so-called North American Union.

The Highway to Hell article seeks to make the argument that there is no grand political plan for a North American Union, as GOP presidential candidate – and limited government advocate - Ron Paul has suggested there is. Ron Paul is prominently featured in the article and “fired back” at the article in a piece that can be seen here:

As WorldNetDaily recently pointed out, there are literally hundreds of feedbacks attached to the article. This is similar to the deluge that Rolling Stone received when it published a short, negative squib about GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul. The furor is yet more evidence that the life of a mainstream journo or editor these days (in the Internet era) is more precarious and fraught with sudden pitfalls than those directly involved with such prestigious papers might ever have imagined.
