Kucinich files debate exclusion complaint
The Kucinich for President campaign filed a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission charging ABC television violated its obligation to operate in the public interest by excluding Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich from the New Hampshire debate.
Kucinich’s complaint charges the televised event was not a true presidential primary debate because it did not include all credible candidates, but “instead is effectively an endorsement of the candidates selected by ABC.â€?
Kucinich is the only Democratic presidential candidate who qualified for federal matching funds but was excluded by ABC.
The complaint also notes that ABC “is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Walt Disney, Co., whose executives have contributed heavily to other Democratic presidential primary candidates, including Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, former Senator John Edwards, and Governor Bill Richardson.�

I believe the Ron Paul campaign has been shut out of the next GOP debate by Fox. That’s also hard to justify, seeing as he’s essentially tied for 3rd place with Rudy.
Ron Paul and Kucinich should take their
act on the road….The Burma Road.
Guess there are a lot of saucers flying tonight in the Kucinich kitchen. And plates.
