I have a grievance to lodge against our News Director. Today I was ordered to remove Ron Paul's name from the list of Republican candidates from our Vote 2008 page. I tried to argue that he should remain since he is still in the race, regardless of how far behind he is in the delegate count. He wouldn't have any part of it. He said that Ron Paul didn't stand a chance and was of no consequence to Minnesota voters. I tried to use the same argument to remove Hillary Clinton from the list. He didn't bite and so I removed Ron's name.
Well at least Ron is still in the news:

I guess those who are looking for info on Ron Paul will go to your news director's competitor.
ReplyDeleteThanks for trying.
Yes, the media still does run things, but are becoming less and less relevant with the free market of the internet.
Just think what we'll be able to do in four years!
