When Bush (or Kerry for that matter) are on TV, it is very important to see cheerful people all around, the picture has to be homogeneous, disturbing elements have to be removed.

Actually, 3 weeks or so ago they had a couple of snipits from a guy that sat in one of Kerry's caucases and was pretty beligerant about him... That guy wasn't removed (on TV).
Since you bring it up though, if you read the European newspapers there is LOTS more information in them as is in the Americans, different views and oppinions are allowed!

Land of the free? Only for very select few!
