And a huge number of commenters said it sounded like their reporters didn't see the same debate as everyone else.

The MSM is in the bag for corporate Hillary and they don't care who knows it. So, once again, we have to do it ourselves.

Truly, it will be a people's revolution.

CNN is really looking bad on that.
Edit: they closed comment section. The MSM isn't into democracy...it's pretty evident they want to push their candidate...and don't give a shit what the people say.

They do, however, make it difficult to access all the comments, but one can read the Readers' Picks and NYT Picks. The Readers' Picks on any 2016 Democratic primary column are always heavily pro-Bernie.

If you're interested in a closer reading of this phenomenon, I just posted a comment on another thread about NYTimes columnists reactions to the debate:

I can be a little geeky on this sort of thing.
