Re: Dishonest Coverage (none / 0)

Reminds me of the California Gubernatorial Recall in 2003.  The media decided to invite 5 of the 135 candidates to a debate on the pretense that these were the "major" candidates.  Other than Swartzenegger and Bustamante, the other three were McClintock, Huffington, and Camejo.

The latter two had the support of about 2% in most polls.  Just below what Gary Coleman and some other candidates had.  

But the media has the power to arbitrarily decide who the candidates are that will be completely ignored.

It would be nice if the media could be held accountable.
