COLUMBIA (WACH) -- It's not just Republicans and Democrats seeking the governor's office.

Third party candidate Morgan Reeves says he's gaining support.

The retired NFL player and Irmo native is the Green Party candidate.

Reeves tells WACH Fox News he's disappointed with the lack of media coverage he's received and says he wants to spread the word so people know he's a real candidate.

"This is the biggest form of discrimination and racism since the emancipation proclamation in South Carolina," Reeves says.  "We are better than that.  The news reporters should report the news and quit trying to determine who wins the election."

Reeves plans to make several appearances next week to address what he feels is a lack of respect for him by the media.
