In the debates he was not permitted to answer a question until about a half an hour into the proceedings.
Why was he cropped from a group photo of the debates?
Why was the poll showing Kucinich in the lead removed, replaced with a different poll which was also dropped when Kucinich was winning, and then buried when he pulled ahead again?
so much for the "liberal media" theory.

Once again, we are confronted by another example of corporate media serving it's corporate masters by limiting the scope of the debate to pre-approved limits, such that anyone who really speaks out on issues that concern the people is silenced. Dennis Kucinich is the best candidate that either of the dominant corporate parties can muster; it is inevitable then that the big business, big government, and the big media that serves both business and government interests will resort to any action it can to silence a candidate who generally cares about the conditions that workers in our country face and about all the social problems we still face in 2007. Shame on ABC!

Him and ABC has had problems since the 2004 election, especially when him and Ted Koppel and choice words. It's weird that it took 28 minutes to get to him and he only got to speak a total of 5:31 as compared to Obama, who spoke 13 minutes and Hilary Clinton who spoke 11. ABC has issues with the third grouping of candidates, none of them spoke over 6 minutes (George Stephanopoulous talked that long) and their campaigns don't get any coverage.

Well, the Liberal Media theory is alive and well. They are pushing for Hillary. They want to get guys like Kucinich out of the race so she can get more campaign funds that may have gone to the lesser candidates. Remember these are all Democrats. They are listening to the Democrat Machine run by the Clintons.

Kucinich is a hypocrite. I don't believe that he'd win any poll, either. Please post proof that he's winning any poll.
The guy has voted against women's rights for YEARS and then all of a sudden when he's running for President, he starts voting differently? Look at his voting record in depth. You'll see. He had zero ratings from NARAL at one time.
Didn't he order his wife online, too? What a pig.
I wouldn't vote for him in a bazillion years. He is just another manipulative con artist with sugar coating slapped on.

So your thought is that he is even too liberal for the liberal media? Interesting. Maybe they are trying to minimize the damage he would inflict on their chance to gain the Presidency. I don't think there is anyone who is farther left than he is.

Because even the liberals know that Kucinich is a bit too far out there to be electable in the General Election.

you mean the media picks and chooses what 'truths' they want their watchers to believe?
and then slants the 'evidence' so it seems as if their pre-ordained outcome is everyone's choice??
