From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
But McKinney's aversion to the mainstream press has frustrated many Greens who see her as the only one of the five declared candidates who can bring the party the kind of attention it got when Ralph Nader was at the top of the ticket in 2000.
Instead of calling a press conference, when she announced her candidacy McKinney posted a seven-minute speech on YouTube.com and her campaign Web site, runcynthiarun.org.
When a reporter called her campaign aide, Hugh Esco, for a comment about the announcement, he hung up.
"Put it this way," said Green Party national director Brent McMillan. "I'm not into the press blackout."
