If you don't already know, the Iowa Straw Poll, seen as a first test of organizational strength by news media and party insiders, took place yesterday. The results weren't too surprising, considering that McCain, Fred Thompson, and Giuliani all boycotted the event. What was surprising, however, is that Fox News blatantly cut certain candidates out of the results they reported.

Here are the uncensored results from the Iowa Straw Poll:

1 Mitt Romney 4516 31.6%

2 Mike Huckabee 2587 18.1%

3 Sam Brownback 2192 15.3%

4 Tom Tancredo 1961 13.7%

5 Ron Paul 1305 9.1%

6 Tommy Thompson 1039 7.3%

7 Fred Thompson 203 1.4%

8 Rudy Giuliani 183 1.3%

9 Duncan Hunter 174 1.2%

10 John McCain 101 1.0%

11 John H. Cox 41 0.1%

Here are the results that Fox News reported:

Notice that positions four and five were completely skipped. While it's a commonly-held opinion that Fox News seems to avoid mentioning Ron Paul, I've never seen an example of such blatant censorship from them before. In case you were wondering, they weren't mentioned in the audio of the show, either. (1 image)

Someone should check to see if they are violating FEC laws, and sue the living crap out of them in general principle.

Fox News Censors Straw Poll Results

Murdoch is the guy that arranged a benefit for Hillary in which his friends contributed several million dollars.

Murdoch is the guy that arranged a benefit for Hillary in which his friends contributed several million dollars.

That appears to be the true goal of the GOP, that is, ensuring Hillary Clinton's corronation.
