Ron Paul Followers Plot Revenge on Fox News (for Nothing)

By the way, The Only Man Who Can Save America has not been excluded from a Fox News debate. But that hasn’t prevented the Paulians from feverishly plotting to get even, as Daily Paul calls for them to take off the tin foil hats and “Put On Our Thinking Caps.”

There is a war going on between the old media and the new media. Fox is the old media and it is threatened by us and our dynamic, people-powered new media. It is exercising its power the only way it knows how - in a clumsy, ham fisted way. Complaining to them isn’t likely to do much good. This is our biggest challenge and will be our finest hour - an end run around the old media and its centralized control structure, banishing Fox and its dinosaur old media tactics to the scrap heap of history. The question is how do we do it?

Let’s try to think of the best most creative ways to turn this situation to our advantage using the resources we have. Positive brainstorming encouraged below. Keep mulling the question - how do we do it? and the answer will emerge.

Remember, Fox is doing this because it is afraid. What is it most afraid of, and how do we use that to our advantage?

A few people try to point out that the story is false, but that doesn’t stop the rest of them from posting lists of phone numbers, plans to launch DoS attacks by downloading the Fox News site over and over (right!), freaky rants about the New World Order, and pleas for the “hotheads” not to commit acts of violence.
