Campaign News

There is a good commentary about the perfidy of some journalists in the Irregular Times. The columnist rightly notes: "It ought to be the job of the voters, not reporters, to decide which candidates are worthy."

Ballot access is not the only hurdle facing many candidates; filtering on the part of many news outlets is a major impediment. The media should go out of its way to do its job -- get unbiased information to the people so that they can make informed decisions when the time comes to cast ballots.

Dear Sen. Gravel:

U certainly are a breath of fresh air.  I was disappointed in the way Keith Olberman acted toward u. Did he think we would not notice his snickering at u?  U sir, are a truth teller and that is always needed.  I am disabled with NO INCOME.  How nice to live in a country were people are as disposable as dixie cups.
