How Often Does The Debate Winner(Edwards) Get Ignored By the MSM and the Press?
It could not be any clearer that the MSM is trying to silence and marginalize Edwards, who by all accounts won the Debate last night.

1. "by all accounts"
I suspect that you'll get a bit of disagreement on that on DU, particularly from supporters of Mr. Obama.

3. Edwards was on Stephanopolis this morning... he's had a lot of airplay on other shows
I don't think he is being ignored. He did well last night and is getting some exposure. Good for him.

Just ask any Kucinich supporter.

5. Edwards wants to take Corporations to the woodshed.
Corporations own the American media.

Easy math.

6. He's showing up .the TV shows
They showed clips of each of the candidates best moment, or what they thought might be the most telling moment, etc. Pretty even coverage

7. They're all anxious to fluff McCain...
so it's hard to get a word in edgewise. I actually thought that Edwards got a bit (just a bit) more attention today. Also, aren't the Sunday shows taped on Friday (before last night's debates)?

8. every time the winner is not one of the corporate annointed
by my estimation that has been the case in every debate except one.
