Romney Believes In Media Conspiracy Theory

Likely Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has admitted that he believes in a conspiracy theory that the media is plotting against him.

Speaking to the conservative site Breitbart.com, Romney said, “There will be an effort by the quote vast left wing conspiracy to work together to put out their message and to attack me.”

He continued: “They’re going to do everything they can to divert from the message people care about, which is a growing economy that creates more jobs and rising incomes.”

It is unclear which media stories have prompted the apparently paranoid response from Romney.

Later in the interview, Romney also said, “Many in the media are inclined to do the president’s bidding.”
