Here's what a PAID moderator at Sean Hannity's forums had to say - and people say Fox has no bias:

The bigger question is: Why does moRon apPAULling® insist upon wasting so much damned money on a lost cause? I thought he was some kind of financial wizard? There's exactly 0% chance he will get the nomination, much less become President. Just more idiocy from an idiot I suppose.

Not sure Bachmann's win in Iowa means much given she's a local gal. Everyone would expect her to have a strong showing there.

How do you know he's paid? I'm actually wondering, because if he is (and you can prove it) that could be taken as an official Fox News response.

He's paid by Hannity, not Fox News, so that's a bit of the loophole there, since Hannity has a syndicated radio show. Mods on the forum have mentioned before that they're paid a stipend for it.

Please, give it up.

Even if he doesn't win, denying the fact that he has had a massive influence is stupidity on your part.

AMES, Iowa — It appears that while Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann beat Texas Rep. Ron Paul by 152 votes in the Iowa Straw Poll on Saturday, she gave away far more admission tickets than he did.
Paul’s campaign gave out 4,750 tickets to straw poll voters, his campaign chairman, Jesse Benton, told The Daily Caller.
Alice Stewart, a spokeswoman for Bachmann, wouldn’t disclose the number of tickets her campaign distributed. But Ben Smith of Politico reported that Bachmann’s campaign gave away 6,000 tickets.
