...will media keep filing appeals to deplete Kucinich's limited money (he takes no corporate money..just from regular people).
I just received this in my email today
Breaking News: Judge says MSNBC debate
must include Kucinich
-from the Los Angeles Times:
A judge in Nevada has just ordered MSNBC to include Rep. Dennis Kucinich in Tuesday's Democratic Party presidential debate in Las Vegas or he will cancel the forum.
Senior Clark County District Court Judge Charles Thompson vowed to issue an injunction halting the nationally televised debate if MSNBC failed to comply. Kucinich had filed a lawsuit seeking to be included just this morning.
The judge ruled it was a matter of fairness and Nevada voters would benefit from hearing from more than just Hillary Clinton, John Edwards and Barack Obama. Kucinich had been invited to participate in the 6 p.m. Pacific debate Tuesday, but that invitation was rescinded last week ... So set up a fourth podium.

Dear Kucinich Supporters,
FINALLY, the principle that we are a nation of laws and not of corporate media control has prevailed. And without your support, your phone calls and emails and letters, this issue might never have attracted the national attention it has.
BUT, while Dennis is preparing to go to Nevada - court order in hand - to represent your interests, expect that MSNBC, NBC, its parent company GE, and dozens of other alphabet-soup corporations in the nation will start filing appeals on top of appeals to keep Dennis out of the debate and try to deplete our limited financial resources. Multi-billion corporations don't want Dennis on that stage Tuesday night. And they will do everything; spend anything they need to make sure that his voice - your voice - is not heard. The law is on our side, but the dollars are on theirs.
NOW, more than ever, we need your continued financial support to stop megalomania-media from robbing you of your Constitutional rights, taking control of the
American electoral process, and hand-picking the candidates they want you to choose from.
Defend your rights today. Make a contribution today to the only candidate who is willing to challenge the powerful interests that want to control you.
They will try to outspend us, but, with your help, they won't be able to out-fight us. Please, contribute whatever you can to defend your rights, and ask everyone you know to do the same.
We won today, but tomorrow is another battle.

My question in additon to will they keep filing appeals to deplete Kucinich's money is also don't we the people have a right to hear someone representing the democratic mainstream views since the other three candidates are essentially also of the same viewpoint..none are calling for impeachment, repeal of patriot act, single payer not for profit health care, out of Iraq now and did not vote against funding the war like Dennis.
They are not for cutting money from the military
budget to stem waste and give free college and preschool for all, nor for jobs for all through WPA like program to put America back to work nor for repeal of Nafta, etc They are not for cutting money from the military budget to stem waste and give free college and preschool for all, stopping vote fraud, stopping monopolies and corporate media conglomerates and so much more
Does he have a right to be on stage since he is the only one excluded who meet the requirement for federal matching funds and does this have anything to do with the fact he won the last debate polling far ahead of Obama as the next winner in the TV stations own polls)something like 34% kucinich in the polls and 22% Obama) yet last time he only got 1% of the media coverage..he is fighting hard not to let this happen again and I hope people help him..don't
the airways belong to the people. I am sick of the corporate media controlling who we hear and all candidate need to get equal amount of time to talk too
yikes..Kucinich is right..it began already NBC has already filed an appeal the wires said in the last hour

I am so not watching these big networks ago nor supporting their advertisers who I will now no longer see. Canceling my Disney trip this year too..seeing how it is who decided this control of who we get to see along with all the other rich corporation.
