Not enough coverage, pro-impeachment Dem launches KucinichTV

Published: Wednesday November 14, 2007

Largely ignored by the mainstream media, a dark-horse Democratic presidential candidate has decided to create his own coverage with a new online TV station set to launch Wednesday.

While the media seems more focused on Rep. Dennis Kucinich's alien encounters than his universal healthcare proposal or warnings about the march to war with Iran, the feisty Ohio Democrat is using the Internet to side-step the normal gatekeepers of presidential campaign coverage. KucinichTV will feature a live town hall meeting at 9 p.m. Wednesday as part of a series of broadcasts planned for the next 10 weeks, the campaign says.

Kucinich did receive a burst of coverage when his resolution aimed at impeaching Vice President Dick Cheney provoked several hours of unexpected action on the House floor. Republicans joined with Kucinich and his allies to defeat the Democratic leadership's attempt to kill the bill, but it has been referred to committee where it is expected to languish.

On KucinichTV.com, the congressman lists the details of his impeachment measure, which he says is necessary to prevent Cheney from plunging the country into another war with Iran.

Wednesday night's Webcast will unveil the campaign's "New Constitutional Convention Initiative" that aims to spark debate on a variety of issues, according to an e-mail to supporters from Kucinich's campaign manager Michael Klein. The campaign plans to "outline the ongoing assaults on the constitution."
