Political conventions -- Informative or infomercial?
Here's the Wichita State University Newsline tentative schedule:
9 a.m. Monday, Aug. 25, until further notice
This topic features five sound bites and one voice wrap.
A lot of time and money is spent on political conventions, but some pundits characterize them as a four-day infomercial. Ken Ciboski, a Wichita State University political scientist, says that, although most people probably don't pay a lot of attention to them, there are still some reasons to have political conventions.
