Breaking News… Barr to be featured in TIME Magazine
Posted by Brett Bittner on July 11, 2008
UPDATE: For those of you that are interested, here is the story I described below last night.
Today, Editor & Publisher is reporting that TIME magazine will be running a feature on Bob Barr’s candidacy and the Libertarian movement. This issue will be available at newstands tomorrow, and it discusses the standard national media coverage, asking the same questions that everyone else is, asserting that Barr’s candidacy will steal votes from John McCain, implying this vote loss will result in the election of Barack Obama. The typical “spoiler” message will be presented, and the slant against anything that is not the status quo will be continued, as they compliment the LIbertarians backhandedly with a “The (Not So) Lunatic Fringe” title. The positive side of the feature is that it will add to Barr’s national media exposure and hopefully draw people into the fold that appreciate the message of liberty and freedom.
