Now that the New York Daily News has endorsed Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders after having conducted hour long editorial board interviews with them both, it turns out Bernies wife Jane Sanders isnt pleased with how it all went down. Shes not complaining about the endorsement, but rather the nature of the interview that her husband was put through. Based on her subsequent words to CNN, it appears she believed the interviewers were too hard on her husband.
Likening the editorial board interview to an inquisition, Jane Sanders who was in the room while it was conducted appears to believe that Bernie Sanders was ambushed. She feels that he was interrupted too many times and wasnt allowed to finish his answers. Observers have been able to look at the transcript to judge for themselves whether the think he was treated fairly by the interviewers. However, even that appears to be a sore spot for Jane: We didnt realize they had planned to release the transcript.
Going on to seemingly suggest that the New York Daily News may have been trying to embarrass her husband, Jane states that It became a little bit more evident what they were trying to do.
Its not clear why Bernie Sanders would have sat down for an editorial board interview with a major New York newspaper without he and his campaign first making themselves aware of the ground rules, or studying up on the newspapers precedent from past elections. In any case, with the NYDN having emphatically endorsed Clinton over Sanders based on the two interviews, it appears the Sanders campaign is looking to do damage control
Poor Bernie could not handle to many questions on interview.....and he wants to be president...

(30,058 posts)are going to get harder, decisions are going to get harder, the hours are going to be long, maybe they will allow Bernie to go home and rest, the campaign trail has been long. Also, Jane's is saying something many of us knew for some time.

(2,577 posts)Ummm ... do they have any idea what they would face in the general once the right-wing machine directs its focus on the Sanders campaign? The Daily News will seem like a walk in the park.

(297,323 posts)shite?! Can you imagine if Hillary whined about her "inquisition"? Oh wait.. Hillary had no problem answering the tough questions.
If I were a BS camp advisor.. I would tell them to quit whining about it.. it's only making people more curious on how he blew his interview.
Oh never mind.. keep @ it BS & JS.
Thank you, Iaaa~
