msnbc's kucinich embed
Edited on Mon Dec-29-03 04:38 PM by morgan2
used to do two or three reports a week about following his campaign. After the abc incident, there has only been one report. Seems they have unofficially pulled his coverage also.

on edit:
seems they havent been doing new stories on any of the candidates lately.

1. I Wouldn't Worry Yet
It's been slow with the holidays.

By the way, I dined as a vegan this Christmas. Well, very close anyway -- a little cheese. It was a nice change this year.

3. I think there'll be a lot more vegans and vegetarians now that mad cow
Is "what's for dinner."
And we damn well know the USDA won't protect us 'cause
they're in bed with Big Meat, as is BushCo.

So:

Spuds, They're What's for Dinner.

2. Actually, I think it was official.
Both ABC and MSNBC clearly conspired, and used
media whore extraordinaire Ted Koppel to be the trigger
man. Screw them. We know a great candidate when we see one.

Every donation to Kucinich is a big bird flipped to Ted Koppel.

4. The press acts en masse.
It wasn't individual media companies who decided back in June that Dean would get a press plane. It was ALL the corporate media in on that decision.

5. They are no better than sewer rats
No, sewer rats have more integrity than the press. The media is trying to dictate to us which candidates we should consider for the Presidency, and later on, they will be telling us who is "electable".

I'll say screw the media! As Jello Biafra says, we must become the media.

Oooh! I like it!

The Kooch knew from the get-go he would be ignored by the media. He knew we would have to do this ourselves, door to door.

There was a discussion about it in the politics forum.

8. Link?
Sorry, I was off the web during that time. Want to get "the rest of the story." with no apologies whatsoever to Paul Harvey.
