Two National Public Radio interviews with Cynthia McKinney this week:

• Wednesday, Oct. 22
Ms. McKinney will be interviewed by Neal Conan on NPR's Talk of the Nation,
1-3 pm ET.  We're told the segment with Ms. McKinney will begin about 2:40
pm ET.  This will be a call-in show.

Ms. McKinney will be interviewed on NPR's Weekend Edition, hosted by Scott
Simon.  The show begins 8 am ET, and we've learned that her interview will
take place about 8:10 am ET.


Recent interviews with Cynthia McKinney archived online:

• 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
