Kucinich Declines 'Hardball' Interview


The series, which reaches millions of viewers nationwide on MSNBC, “is quite biased in the direction of right-wing and corporate interests,” said Kucinich spokesperson David Swanson. “The host of ‘Hardball’ has made false and biased statements about this campaign.”

“Matthews asserted that only former Vermont Governor Dean had opposed the Iraq war, which was clearly a problem from our point of view,” Swanson said, noting that Kucinich voted against the war resolution in the House of Representatives.

“It is not clear to us that it is in the public interest to dignify [Matthews’] show by treating it as a reasonable forum for discussion of the presidency,” Swanson said.

EL - It's ratings are not a million voters a day.
