Angelides vs. Leno

You know things are getting bleak when the best California's Democratic gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides can do is to whine about not getting as much face time with Jay Leno as Leno's old pal Arnold Schwarzenegger. Protesters gathered outside Leno's studio and Angelides' campaign manager sent a letter to NBC to decry what they called the network's unfair gift of extra exposure to Arnold, in the form of a cozy interview yesterday. OK, it's true that Schwarzenegger has refused to participate in more than a single debate with Angelides, thereby limiting the Dem's free time on broadcast TV. But c'mon, Phil. Maybe if you had some actual ideas or positions that anyone was excited about, Jay would want to talk to you, too.

This is what happens when when you sit back and let the government take control of news?,entertainment and telecomunication. Your approval rather than condemnation of this flagrant violation of that law that used to prohibit such misuse just shows how willing you are to allow the right wing to control this country! Congratulations,you just joined the right wing!

Too bad you can't do some real journalism and find out what Angelides' positions are - he didn't win the primary just by luck.

I will not be renewing my subscription to Mother Jones because if I want to read stupid comments by uninformed hacks, I can read the SF Chronicle.
