4. Rachel Maddow And Coverage
Mon Sep 23, 2024, 11:18 PM

Rachel is one of the few media figures that has been covering this stuff. We need more coverage and also more discussion on forums like DU. Also, your average voter has not heard about CREW much less the capacity to read a 112 page document. So that is a message problem. I am retired and have an undergrad background in political science and I will still have to carve out time and energy to read that CREW document (and I will read it.). Most people aren't able to, so we need to have clearer and simpler messages about this subject, including discussion here on DU. Part of why I am posting about this issue is again, it is not getting enough general attention outside of experts, policy wonks, and the occasional media figures like Rachel Maddow. I will repeat my point- we need to have much more awareness and discussion about this issue. The general population needs to be aware of this. We can not leave democracy just to the wonks and experts. People in the general public need to be aware of this issue.
