And we will continue to cover people you object. That is what RESPONSIBLE media does. You are free to ignore that coverage. We will also continue to cover people you may like, you are free to follow that coverage too. That is again, what responsible media does. I understand you may not be used to that, since that is the standard that used to exist two or three decades ago, not in the age of FOX and MSMBC , or should I compare to this to the Hurst paper era?
It is absolutely NOT my place to decide that for you. It is YOUR place as a citizen to make that decision.
For the record, I disagree with Ron Paul and Libertarians in more ways than I can list, but I will not pretend they do not matter, and hide my head in sand either. You, on the other hand, are free to do so. You see when doing political reporting, I cannot pretend that. Also as a responsible citizen I cannot pretend that either.
