So MSNBC is reporting from Iowa. Bernie is there so whom are

they showing? The Trumpster!

Oh, they did mention Bernie after talking about all the security Hillary has. There was a throw away remark about that he didn't have any. Gawd they are disrespectful of the man.

"In Iowa at the State Fair! Oh my goodness, I can't wait to see the Butter Cow! Oh look there's TRUMP! Haha, love that guy! Hillary has a bunch of security as usual, maybe they're handling those emails for her haha. Oh and Bernie's also here. No security. Weird. Oh well!

Oh my god look at those corn dogs! I gotta have one!"

And that's how I envision the report going.

so much for the very small liberal corner of cable TV.

We still got freespeech TV - but that is about it.

with my post.

But do pay attention how the media manipulates America to believe Bernie is not even a player and that he is a radical. Watch how they normalize Trump's rantings and the extreme radical right wing utterings of the likes of Bush and Walker.

Our media these days is little more than the propaganda arm of the 1%. Sanders scares the crap out of them.

MSNBC had a livestream of Bernie's soap box speech on their main page a few minutes ago. I caught the tail end of it, but the Q&A was pretty good. Trump is just entertainment.

I'm not really familiar with the Iowa fair so it may very well have been something different. Either way, it was a live Bernie speech where he took questions at the end.

but he has to request secret service protection to get it, until
something like 90 days before the GE. And I suspect he is
averse to doing that.

Still it makes me nervous how exposed he always is to
whatever and whoever.

stands for Mostly Stupid Nonsense Brodcast Continuously

CNN stands for Chicken Noodle News.

ABC= Always Bigoted Content

CBS= Continous Bull Stuff

FOX= For Only X-Files

NBC = No Believable Content.

Have I missed any?

I'll probably DVR Chris Hayes and Rachel so I can zap through the coverage of the Trumpster and the rest of the Republicans and just watch the reports that they do well.
