"I've been standing here for the last 45 minutes praying to God you were going to call on me." - Dennis Kucinich to George Stephanopoulos, ABC news
Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich is alive, well, and free to move about as he pleases. Yet corporate media treat him like brutal dictators disappearing the opposition. They don't want voters to know that a Democratic presidential candidate will defend the citizenship rights of Americans and human rights around the world.
[snip]
They use a variety of methods to disappear him, including removing his image from photos, ignoring him during debates, and simply acting as if he doesn't exist.
During the ABC sponsored debate broadcast on August 19th, George Stephanopoulos did not ask Kucinich a single question until nearly 30 minutes had elapsed and then asked him fewer questions than he asked any other candidate. As if the blatant lack of attention were not bad enough, ABC literally took Kucinich out of the picture. ABC displayed an Associated Press photo on its website that purported to show the Democratic candidates, but Kucinich's image was no where to be seen.
When confronted by the Kucinich campaign, ABC lied and lied badly. They tried to blame the AP when the photo cropping was obviously their own handiwork. Then they replaced the original cropped photo with one that included Kucinich but never acknowledged the original attempt to eliminate him and his message from view.

Dennis who?
But not Gravel? Dumb.
Because THEY are out to get both of us.
Dennis is too short to be in the photo. Take a look at Edwards jacket. Looks like someone could be pulling on it. “Hey, I’m down here”!
“Cousin Itch” is a shaggy dogma.
It's easy, once you get the idea...
I’m sure Democratic operative vote counters or their trusty electronic voting machines will make sure every Kucinich vote is counted ‘correctly’ too.
Wouldn’t want them to throw away their votes, so moving those votes into the Hillary tab is really letting them be represented.
Dennis, Short, Pathetic, Meaningless, Weenie Kookyspinich, that’s who.
Why doesn’t Dennis (or anyone and many others) ever have the insight, reflection, good grace, humility and empirical reasoning ability to take a good look at themselves and realize that they are irrelevant and that nobody except their pathetic sycophants gives a damn about them and their narcissistic blind ambition?
Strange language used in this article...’they going to disappear him?’ What this, eubonics?
Righttttt.....the guy is so boring his wife had to get a pacemaker implanted just to keep her heart rate from dropping to zero.
Sure sounds like what they do to conservatives.
The media is “disappearing” him? This is hugh.
I’ll miss the pictures of his wife.
“standing here praying to..” to WHOM?
Democrat? Pray? God?
In short--- Denn"isn't"... : )
Take a position one or two galaxies to his left, and youll have her in the flesh.
Man the things you folks do to get your jollies in.
