Media blackout
Where's the national news media coverage of the Jill Stein Green Party presidential campaign? Or the Gary Johnson campaign for the Libertarian Party? Eighty percent of Americans say that neither the Democrat nor the Republican in this debauched race "represent their values" and still the news media does nothing to inform of alternatives. It is a conspiracy by multi-national media companies to purposefully ignore the opposition to the candidates they have purchased.What does that dissatisfaction statistic need to get to? 85, 90 percent? 97, 98? What will make things change? Take it from a person that knows a lot of immigrants. They see their ballots for the first time and are shocked to see that there are a myriad of other names on it. Since Monday, there haven't been any stories about Stein's campaign even on Alternet, at the Intercept, or at Mother Jones. And these news outlets purport to be alternative! They are failing.
The United States of America: Where even the children of Republican and Democratic candidates get more media play than third-party candidates.
