1. The media DOES realize what they are doing by framing Bernie as an extremist.

The media is owned by the PTB and is doing their bidding.

We have lost our Representative Democracy that so many have fought and died to obtain and protect. Our politicians represent their Donors first, last and always. The evidence is everywhere and most Americans will acknowledge this as fact. What bothers me is how so many are still willing to cede that control to the wealthy when they know it goes against their interests. They are too willing to be distracted by the intentional divisions placed in their way by the media and those same corrupt politicians!

I say screw that! I support Bernie and any other running for office who refuses to be bought off with campaign money! I vow to spread this message to as many Americans as I can, I hope you do to!

Who cares about Sean Hannity---he should be up on charges for supporting and inciting a criminal in Nevada.
And then in the bar below the public gets to read the following:
Are liberal publications unfairly promoting Sanders-----------------------
I HOPE SO------------------this right wing CNN moderator was trying to marginalize Sanders.
And if this MSM moderator should be called out more often, then have at it --------------
Good on Katrina that was totally awesome--------------for telling this hack that he is nothing more than a propagandist ---------------------its about the ISSUES, and Sanders is on the ISSUES


Honk-----------------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016

like the banks- Disney (ABC), Comcast (NBC, MSNBC), Viacom (CBS), News Corp. (FOX) and Time Warner. What a reflection of these extremist conservative times when Katrina VDH has to defend John Nichols of the 'Nation' and Bernie.

4. This poor guy is confused by what the media job is.

Their job is to spread the propaganda as it is given to them to spread.
Journalism is dead to them and has been for years.

Don't watch NBC. Don't watch ABC. Do not watch CBS. Do not watch MSNBC. I hope you know to avoid Fox News in all its forms.

They are biased and unfair. They want you to remain in the dark. They do not want you to know the truth.
