but struggle with any practical way to accomplish them
even if the media were not bought and paid for, even if they were responsible journalists serving as te Fourth Estate, the "people's watchdog:, forcing coverage of a candidate is a non-starter.
With full public funding, I guess a reporter and phoptographer could be assigned on the public payroll to journal the candidate's moves, provide video and print to the wire services. Then maybe a public-funded website could provide all that. And NPR or cspan or something could air it. The commercial media are still going to obsess on their favorites though.
