The sports section?

After all, he's so past any hope of the nomination that the media, like most of America (including the candidates) have pivoted to the GE. Bernie must have missed the memo.

And it's not newsworthy that the man you think is no longer even relevant continues to draw crowds of 31,000? Guess you never took journalism.

Yet another May newbie! Welcome to DU to you all!

Afford, is this the attention he wants? His rallies are not resulting in primary results for Sanders, when is his campaign team going to realize this.

You either caught them after they just got out of a meeting or they've been told to stay away from all the email scandal postings so you got a swarming.

Hey, at least you get coverage.
