On October 20, Al Jazeera-English TV ran a 25-minute segment about the Commission on Presidential Debates. See it at this link. Especially notable is the interview with George Farah, who mentions details about the Commission that are not generally known. The segment also contains a fairly lengthy interview with Jill Stein.

In 1990, the United States signed the Document of the Copenhagen Meeting of the Conference on the Human Dimension of the CSCE. Among other things, the U.S. promised to “provide that no legal or administrative obstacle stands in the way of unimpeded access to the media on a non-discriminatory basis for all political groupings and individuals wishing to participate in the electoral process.” United States laws prop up the Commission on Presidential Debates, which are sponsored for the most part by profit-making corporations. The expenses are tax-deductible, meaning that the U.S. government is indirectly subsidizing the Commission. People in the world outside of the United States are interested in comparing U.S. rhetoric with U.S. reality.
