It's simple here.......a vote for Gingrich was a vote against the 'main stream media'.
However....newt will sink on his own. He really didn't need the stupidity of the liberal media to try to sink him faster. In fact it backfired on them. OOPS!

Newt Declares War on Media Larry Elder Jan 26, 2012
The Republican re-embrace of former Speaker Newt Gingrich says a lot about whom he sees as his opponent -- and it isn't just President Barack Obama. It's the media.
If not for major media's embrace, Obama would still be sitting in the Senate, perhaps mulling another run for the presidency. A UCLA economist-political scientist recently tried to measure how the liberal media bias influences the way people vote. He concluded that this bias gives the Democrat candidate 8 to 10 percentage points.
Republicans understand this. So does Gingrich -- on a very deep level. He knows the media dislike him above and beyond their anti-conservative Republican disdain. That he is testy, no-nonsense, whip smart and knowledgeable makes him formidable. That he engineered the 1994 GOP takeover of the House and pushed former President Bill Clinton into governing in the center makes him effective.
The good news for the media is that Gingrich is a Southern white male Christian Republican. He belongs to a group for which no advocacy organization exists to play the race/sex/religion card when Gingrich gets called -- on-air by cable hosts and pundits -- "racist," "disgusting" and a "pig."
Gingrich bites back. Hard. Thus, he addresses the question of his messy personal life while hitting the CNN moderator for bringing this up as the first question. Gingrich knows he lacks the Reaganesque "aw, shucks" persona. Reagan used his sunny disposition to counter the media's attempt to portray him as a dangerous nutcase whose finger should never go near the nuclear button -- not unlike how many try to portray Gingrich...............................>>>>.........................>>>>...............................http://townhall.com/columnists/larryelder/2012/01/26/creators_oped
All conservatives consider the Main Stream Media to be their enemy. The reason??? Conservativces can't manipulate the MSM, so they whine cry and sob "IT"S THE MEDIA'S FAULT"!

Very different than Hilary Clinton's "vast right wing conspiracy" that was out to get her husband.
Newt won So Carolina because the electorate is sick and tired of the msm!! the msm is no longer considered credible. Journalism is a lost art....unfortunately! They are all 'shock jocks' now and the 'bottom line' is all that matters!!! That is why the internet is full of citizen journalists!!

I watched Gingrich's concession speech last night after he got creamed in Florida... Instead of congratulating Romney, Gingrich gave a 'victory speech'... (even though he lost by 15%). All mouth... no class.

AWESOME VIDEO! I think it's probably wasted on this audience. Many on the board will not understand any of the punch lines... For them it isn't a punch line, it's their personal view of America!

Gingrich: Michigan is do-or-die for Romney By Tim Devaney-The Washington Times Sunday, February 19, 2012 Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich hinted Sunday that if rival Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney loses the primary election in his home state of Michigan, he should drop out of the race.
“If he loses his home state, I don’t see what he says the next morning to his donors to stay in the race,” Mr. Gingrich told “Fox News Sunday.”
If Mr. Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, can’t win his home state in a primary election, how can he beat President Obama in Michigan, which typically votes with the Democrats, Mr. Gingrich asked.
“For a general election, that’s not a very good sign,” he said.
Mr. Gingrich pushed the stakes higher, indicating he also needs to win his home state of Georgia in the primary election.
