This is how that liberal PBS News hour talks about Bernie

http://crooksandliars.com/2015/07/david-brooks-bernie-sanders-doesnt-get

Just makes me want to throw up. Like Bernie (that socialist from Vermont) is only drawing big crowds from college kids.
This is how the corporate third way shills talk about Senator Sanders. I'm really hating Clinton .. already.

Only on weekends do they have worthwhile entertainment. Wait, Wait is good. Wada ya know is good, 99% invisible is good, The Splended Kitchen is good, Most of the rest is just more American Pravda.

We really need to break up the corporate media.

Just curious so I can keep tabs on the nasty dirt dishing from Team Hillary as to fellow Dem candidates.
Thanks

SOP, seems to me. Their reportage... if you can call it that... of the DEM contest is even more condescending.

In fact... after they do the ritual roundup of each the 2,345 currently announced gop candidates they typically make a perfunctory mention of Clinton and/or her campaign. Ignoring the other four (?) announced DEM candidates.

PBS News is not "liberal" and hasn't been since the pre-Clinton era.

Which is fine with me. Although it was more one-sided than I usually see from the Newshour.
