Why is the media attacking bernie more than trump?

[Csainvestor]

Does that make any sense to anybody?

[TDale313]

1. Yes- the corporate media see Bernie as a threat to their bottom line

Whereas Trump is ratings gold. I am not a bit surprised the knives are out for Bernie.

2. How is the media "attacking" Sanders?

3. Bernie's attacking the ONLY person standing between Trump and the White House.

Seriously. I hate him for that. Watch how low Bernie's numbers will sink now that he's threatening convention fights.

[Fawke Em]

14. His numbers won't sink.

More people hate her than will ever hate him.

Hell, I can't stand her or Trump. They can both go to hell as far as I'm concerned. I keep hoping for some divine intervention.

[griffi94]

17. More people hate her

than will ever even think about him.

The flip side is many more people support her than hate her.

He's irrelevant.

That's why she's burying him in the primaries.

Bernie's coming off as just another
angry old white guy.

4. Whatever you do - do not go to the following link!

Media wants the Pro_Corporate Candiate, who is of course, HRC.

So this theory -- Trump was just a stand in? My spouse came up with said theory about a month ago, but it is all over the blogosphere. Just google "Are the Clintons and Trumps friends?" and then "Wll Trump hand the win over to Hillary?" and watch how many links are reported.

I mean, today is the first full week that the Donald has held the nomination for his party and he lamely insists that HRC is a bad candidate due to how she enabled her hubby to cheat on her? When everyone knows that fact only increased Hill's popularity. As they say in New Yoik, "What's Up wid That?"

7. Hmm Trump has been toying with running since 1988

oy... really, this is not to help her.

[Samantha]

10. He called Bill Clinton and asked him did he think he should run

Clinton said yes.

5. Bernie is the only one talking about fixing what's wrong with them.

[pressbox69]

6. Maybe they want to improve Bernie's numbers

worked for Trump.

[msongs]

8. got some evidence media is attacking bernie more than trump? bernie people keep saying

the media is IGNORING bernie!

[Samantha]

12. Well it worked so well the first time I guess they decided to try it again

The irony of it is many of us are now ignoring them ignoring Sanders.

9. Because the media is corporate owned and Bernie Sanders is the only candidate who

presents a real threat to the status quo corporate power enjoys. Just having a person such as Bernie Sanders with access to the presidential bully pulpit is something that absolutely cannot happen from the corporate/banking point of view.

[KingFlorez]

11. At this point I think they have started focusing on him less

Before New York and the 4/26 primaries, the media really boosted Sanders by driving the underdog narrative.

[JaneyVee]

13. DIDNT YOU GUYS COMPLAIN ABOUT A BERNIE BLACKOUT???

Now he's getting media coverage and you complain???

[truedelphi]

15. Didn't you go into full out nasty mode denouncing Bernie and all

Of us supporters for the incident with the Democratic Party Campaign server, and --

Then when it turned out (NO surprise with this) that Bernie was not to blame and was in fact innocent, you never bothered to retract or to apologize?

[JaneyVee]

16. Nope. Wrong person.

[truedelphi]

20. This wasn't your autopsy of what went on and how Bernie was to blame?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511867429

The OP sure got anti-Bernie folks riled up.

And if you didn't write it, then did one of Bernie's staffers sneak into yr account here and hijack said account?

[ecstatic]

18. When did it come out that his campaign wasn't to blame?

[AgingAmerican]

21. Is insulting Sanders and his supporters the only thing you are capable of?

Seriously are you kidding me?

[AgingAmerican]

19. Fear

He want's to govern for the people. Corporate America just can't have that.

[DrDan]

22. this is really quite confusing

here is a thread saying he is never mentioned on television - with lots of support from other DUers

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511928294

and you are saying just the opposite

[Tarc]

23. "The media never talks about Bernie!" vs. "The media is talking too much about Bernie!"

Holy schlamoley, guys, make up your minds.
