F*** Off CNN: Bernie Sanders promises $2 ATM Fees

[HerbChestnut]

Really??? An hour long speech on the greed and malpractices of Wall Street with numerous policy proposals and *that's* the headline?

http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/05/investing/bernie-sanders-wall-street-atm-fees/index.html

Note: The headline of the actual article is different from the one on the CNN homepage, which is where the OP title comes from.

1. I believe he said you should NOT have to pay $2 to take out $40 from the ATM. n/t

[litlbilly]

3. No, he said he would cap the atm fee at $2. He said 10% charge to take out $40 was unaceptable.

[litlbilly]

5. You really should watch the entire speech. It was quite remarkable. Just amazing.

[HerbChestnut]

4. Not quite.

He said you shouldn't have to pay a 10% fee ($4) to withdraw $40 of your own money and that ATM fees should be capped at $2.

[litlbilly]

6. that's because you actually watched and listened to the entire speech Herb:)

20. Especially when the ATM eliminated teller jobs.

2. CNN has put out more than one article on Bernie's speech today.

7. Are they showing that on television? Never mind I thought your link was excerpts from Bernie's

speech today but it's not.

[Cali_Democrat]

8. Not sure

I don't watch CNN and I'm not near a television at the moment.

[Uncle Joe]

9. Those aren't clips from his speech today. n/t

[Cali_Democrat]

10. I didn't look at the clips because I block streaming video from CNN

However, I read the article and it describes Bernie's speech today.

The OP was concerned that the only thing CNN picked up was the $2 ATM fee.

However, CNN published another article describing the speech which I posted.

[Uncle Joe]

11. Earlier this afternoon, they didn't even mention Bernie but they covered Hillary

Trump, Bush, Rubio, Cruz, and even Fiorina, Christie and Paul.

[HerbChestnut]

13. That one's new.

Must have been put up after I opened my OP. Though you have to admit it's a much more substantive article that what's on their homepage. It's also the one less people are likely to see.

[Cali_Democrat]

14. Incorrect

The article in your OP is time stamped 5:18 PM ET.

The article I posted is time stamped 4:26 PM ET.

The article you posted is newer.

[HerbChestnut]

15. Whatever.

[Cali_Democrat]

17. Sorry to bother you with the facts.

Sometimes they can be so inconvenient.

[HerbChestnut]

18. I notice you didn't bother addressing the second part of my post.

But go ahead, lay on the snark.

12. Trivializing Revolutionary Policies.

Bernie is rockin' and they don't like it.

They backed Hillary, what can you expect?

Clinton Foundation donors include dozens of media organizations, individuals

On top of donations, Hillary personally made a fortune from Wall Street.

Will Hillary bite the hand that feeds her?

16. Look when the journalist is not smart enough to understand

a concept you cannot expect them to report on it.

[Agony]

19. I'll always think of CNN as the corporation that brought us Glenn Beck

so yeah… F*** Off CNN

Bernie has an awesome record of supporting ordinary people
