> • Cynthia McKinney's Sunday, Oct. 19 interview is archived online and can 
> be viewed at BreakTheMatrix.com 
> (http://www.breakthematrix.com/node/28047).
>
> This interview was originally intended to be an online forum featuring 
> several alternative party candidates, but the other candidates who were 
> invited missed the event because of confusion caused when a different 
> forum was scheduled to take place at the same time at Columbia University, 
> which was subsequently canceled.  Ms. McKinney had earlier confirmed her 
> participation in the BreakTheMatrix.com broadcast, and followed through on 
> her promise.
>
> The organizers of the canceled forum at Columbia have announced another 
> forum, to take place in Washington, DC, on Thursday, Oct. 23.  Despite the 
> organizers' claims of confirmation by the candidates, Ms. McKinney has not 
> been consulted on her participation in the Thursday forum or on ground 
> rules or other parameters of the event.  We're urging members of the media 
> to regard announcements about the Oct. 23 forum with some caution.
>
> • Cynthia McKinney was also interviewed on Thursday, Oct. 16, on Democracy 
> Now! following the final McCain-Obama debate, from which she and other 
> alternative party candidates were excluded 
> (http://www.democracynow.org/2008/10/16/breaking_the_sound_barrier_third).
