No, WREK will not be covering this debate. Hank, I don't know who told you that we would, but a Republican debate (nor Democrat, Libertarian, Sub-Genius, or Grass Roots) would be not be appropriate for airing. The reason why is that it only benefits a political group, and not the interests of the Atlanta and Georgia Tech population. Now if you set up a debate among all the final candidates (including democrats and all the others), then WREK may consider covering such an event if it were held on campus. Sorry, but you are going to have to find a different media source.

The >reason why is that it only benefits a political group, and not the interests >of the Atlanta and Georgia Tech population. This is quite a bit of logic. Why doesn't a Republican (or any other party) debate serve the interests of Atlanta and GT? Given our electoral system (there will be party primaries soon, presumably one each for the Republicans, Democrats, and Libertarians) please explain to me why it wouldn't be in the public interest to help those voters become acquainted with the candidates? The only way I can see that one could construe some sort of "benefit" to the Replican party is that those in the GT population that are inclined to vote in the Republican primary might be smarter about the candidates and actually help to elect the best choice. So the Replicans end up with the best choice for the general election. Isn't that also best for the public in general? Now we have the choice between the best candidates from each party. WREK should cover it. If someone organizes a Democratic (or Libertarian) candidate debate, WREK should cover those. After the primaries then a debate among the final candidates would be just as appropriate. Your rationale sounds like snobbery to me... Robert -- | Robert L.
