The Media

March 28th, 2008 by Rhonda37

Mr. Gravel,

As an american, I find myself becoming more disgusted with our media. They are only concerned about money and ratings which is leaving us Americans out in the cold when gaining the truth is involved. They; The media; have chosen our next president for us and I HATE that. I wish they would give equal time to ALL the candidates. How are we Americans suposed to make a truly educated and heart felt decision? If you are elected as president, do you have any plans on how to handle our out of control, self rightous; greedy and rumor passing media? I have been so confused about my next presidental election thanks to this media. the only way I found out aboyut you was by preforming an online quiz to help find your president elect match. So far, I like what i have seen from your web site but I wish our strongest form of advertising: the media: would pass along ALL of the information and leave it up to the Americans to make our choice.

Thank You,

Rhonda Nelson of Abbeville, AL

I will definitely sign up for that. Does he have a forward by Kucinich? I'm sure both can speak to the censorship they experienced as Democratic candidates in the media.

PS - I saw Gravel the other night and he said that the last few hundred copies of this printing of Citzen Power are almost gone, and they will probably be collector's items, because they accidentally left out the index.

Saw your post and that you haven't gotten a response

Senator Gravel is well aware of the conflicts of interest in our media today as he has been an overwhelming victim of it. I don't want to speak on his behalf, but I believe he would probably say that the answer to these problems lies with us as citizens and that we would be able to fix this once we enact the National Initiative and pass laws to reverse the consolidation of media that we have seen in the past 20-30 years.
