10. Because first you have to assume the Bernie mindset

There is a pre-requisite form of thinking:

1) Everyone is out to get him.

2) When he loses, someone clearly cheated.

3) There is a conspiracy theory against him involving the Democratic Party, The Republican Party, the media and Hillary Clinton to prevent Bernie from winning the nomination.

4) Bernie is actually winning, but Hillary and the media are conspiring to make it look like he isn't.

So, first pretend you believe all of those things are true and factual. Then it makes perfect sense for a "media blackout" to be associated with some sort of caucus execution issues.
