massive time given to trump... mostly negative coverage of Clinton... yes the media plays large role in choosing candidates

Even in this forum, Democratic Primaries, there aren't that many OPs about her. The majority are about Bloomberg, Sanders and to a lesser extent Biden.

that he planned on breaking up those media monopolies, well, a few days later they broke the Dean scream as something huge, spending days on it and the rest is history. So much power in so few hands has always been dangerous.

He gave his us his scream, and his campaign imploded.

Warren was never a frontrunner in the way Dean was, any similarity is superficial, all they will really have in common is not getting the nomination.
