Reply #30: I wrote a note to the PBS Ombudsman [View All]

[Hekate]

"I have been closely following the Democratic candidates for president and thus am aware that the Iowa caucuses' top 3 were, in order: Barack Obama, John Edwards, and Hillary Clinton.

"I eagerly watched the PBS Friday-evening line-up for your usually excellent analysis.

"Imagine my disappointment when all the conversations revolved around Obama and Clinton. Edwards, who came in second, was not mentioned once beyond the initial graph showing percentages. Jim Lehrer, Shields and Brooks, Gwen Ifill's round table, even Bill Moyers -- NO ONE talked about the man who placed second.

"It was sickening to watch what the corporate media did in terms of ignoring Edwards, not to mention their utter disrespect for Kucinich, but I expect far better from PBS.

"Sincerely,

me
