Original headline: Raw footage shows Ron Paul DIDN'T storm out of CNN interview over racist newsletters... the interview was simply done
It seems I owe Candidate Paul an apology. I still don't like his friends, though. |
Reports that Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul stormed out of a CNN interview earlier this week seem to be dramatically over-exaggerated.
| Or, in fewer words, CNN lied. |
Raw footage of the Thursday interview shows that it lasted nearly ten minutes, which is not unusually brief on the campaign trail. After discussing foreign policy, the payroll tax, negative advertisements, and super fund PACs, the interview concluded with three whole minutes of discussion on the issue of the incendiary racist and homophobic letters that were published in Mr Paul's name in the Eighties and Nineties.Â
