Absolutely no offense meant to Investor’s Business Daily’s Andrew Malcolm, but apparently we weren’t the only ones who read his tweet and had our doubts. We knew that Mitt Romney’s effort to convince ABC to include Carly Fiorina on the debate stage Saturday night turned out to be fruitless, but could it be true that ABC determined that it wouldn’t even sell ad time to her campaign?
Breaking: Not only has ABC barred #Carly #Fiorina from tonights NH GOP debate, its now refusing to sell her ad time then. #Rigged

@whignewtons Inexplicable decisions against the only GOP woman & only GOP cand barred unless it really is rigged. Wheres the RNC?

So she really can’t even buy a commercial during the debate? At least there’s Twitter.
Check out this parody video about ABC’s rigged debate tonight—hilarious!https://t.co/9fMrU65Pw3

@AHMalcolm Something wrong with her money? Can a broadcast network preferentially exclude political speech? Seems hinkey.

@RocIngersoll @AHMalcolm GOP is trying to narrow the field faster (artificially) to bun rush Trump. Good idea, bad execution.

@lisalunu @RocIngersoll Huh. How naive of us to think GOP voters ought to make those decisions.

@AHMalcolm Ever since she shot up in the polls, the legacy media has starved her of air and attention.

@AHMalcolm @imcrews That's bullshit. Media controlling outcome of elections.

@AHMalcolm @ABC #Boycott Republican Debate on ABC. Barring @CarlyFiorina is unfair and sexist. Support @CarlyFiorina

Yes, she is. And that would bother ex-Clinton aide/ABC anchor Geo Stephanopoulos https://t.co/JOnA9nq3NO

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson isn’t likely to succeed where Romney failed, but he too is urging ABC to give her a microphone too.
Logic & fairness support @CarlyFiorina being in the @ABC debate tonight. I say let the lady debate. She adds a critical perspective.
— Gov. Asa Hutchinson (@AsaHutchinson) February 6, 2016
Thanks for supporting the fair debate the American people deserve, Governor! https://t.co/3H3rQQ1eto

@CarlyFiorina @GOP @Reince Way to go GOP! Let's make sure the anti woman stereotype sticks like a tick to the Republican party.
