Reply #137: Perhaps you don't care, but the field is being purposefully tilted [View All]

Personally, I think you should care. I think we should all care. It's anti-democratic not to care about other people making our choices for us.

Look at this http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20031006&c=6&s=taibbi
down near the end of the article. Four reporters admitted filtering in favor of Dean and against Kucinich. How many others are doing the same thing?

Look too at the charts here: http://www.politicsus.com/presidential%20press%20releases/Kucinich/102903.htm Note that the difference in coverage is stunningly disproportionate to the difference in poll results.

The problem is a significant one. It favors Dean today, but what happens tomorrow? Are you willing to live with that?
