Ralph Nader has this op-ed in the New York Daily News. Nader’s general point is that mainstream news media do a terrible job of covering candidates. His column is specifically triggered by the Huffington Post’s policy of not covering Donald Trump in its political news, but instead in its entertainment news. Nader’s piece also criticizes the Commission on Presidential Debates.

Covering Nader or Trump or others not so credentialed by the major parties is very close to admission that the established political system is failing us, which it is of course.
What new divisions must emerge to address failed public policy are not the tired ones corporatists employ but ones that value and encourage mass critical participation, multi-partisanship, and the independence that can only exist without to big to fail and corporate agendas.
