ABC Drops Coverage of Kucinch, Sharpton, Braun

HeadlineDec 11, 2003

In campaign news, the Denis Kucinich campaign is reporting that ABC News has pulled its reporters from covering his campaign as well as those of Carol Mosely Braun and the Rev. Al Sharpton. The decision comes more than a month and a half before the first primary vote is cast. Kucinich said this is an example of “the media trying to pick candidates, rather than letting the voters do so. In a democracy, it should be voters and not pundits or TV networks who narrow the field of candidates.”
