MI Greens get covered
One of the difficulties we face as Greens is that the "mainstream" media pays little attention to us, unless we "spoil" one of "their" elections...by participating. What clap-trap. But there are times when the "alternative" media cover us...and make us look foolish, deluded, or worse.
It's not that we don't understand that we are jousting at windmills, we do. The point is that we must do battle because the media doesn't, or at least that's one reason.
The Metro Times has run an article wherein we Greens are called "Political fringe" and "on the margin"...and this is friendly press. Anyway, the article is a good one. There is nothing behind the "read more!" link this time.
