BS had to know that press isn't always positive. But the BSers needed something to keep the fire Bern'ing so they hyped the perceived lack of media coverage.

Sanders was on the Sunday talk shows nearly every week, if not one or more of them each week. I don't have time to search all the dates he was on, but I recall pointing out to my wife on several occasions that Sunday morning had become the Trump - Sanders hour.
