NH Governor candidate Jon Lavoie
NH U.S. Rep candidate Casey Newell
Why is New Hampshire’s biggest TV station, WMUR, Channel 9, screwing over two fairly popular candidates running for public office? When you log onto the election information regarding the NH Governor’s race, candidate Jon Lavoie is nowhere to be found. Then when you scroll through the candidates running for U.S. Representative in the 2nd Congressional District, Casey Newell’s photo and stances on the issues are again — Missing in Action.
Did I mention that both Lavoie and Newell are Republicans? But I’m sure a great “objective”, “fair”, and “unbias” media outlet like WMUR-TV would NEVER, EVER use political party affiliation to screw over a couple candidates in an election — and if you believe that line of bullBLEEP, ladies and gentlemen, I’ve got some nice ocean-front property in Nebraska I’d love to sell you.
Here’s what Jon Lavoie posted on his Facebook campaign page earlier today:
Jon Lavoie for Governor of NH
Below is a message I sent to WMUR-TV. I would encourage you to contact them with a similar message. It’s not right that our major source of information in NH is picking and choosing what they want you to know.
I must say that I’m disappointed in WMUR. I am not mentioned or shown in the list for Governor anywhere on your website. There is no one in this race that deserves more attention that anyone else. Each one of us went through the same steps to get our names on the ballot. Each one of us attends NH events spreading our message. Why is WMUR not exercising equal opportunity for all viable candidates?
