In reply to the discussion: **** Who won the debate? **** [View all]LetThemEatCake
(9 posts)An effective Democracy relies on fair and responsible news reporting. We dont have that in the US. So we have to work harder to educate ourselves. Watch the debate. The entire thing. Dont rely on the highlights. The reel for Hillary is much thicker than Bernie's from which to clip out her highlights.
Hillary got more talking time. Hands down. With Bernie, CNN allowed him to talk only in response to direct questions. Hillary, on the other hand, they allowed her to speak when she wanted to respond to Bernie's statements regarding her record, as well as to direct questions. And re tge headline "they were shouting at each other" . . .
Umm. . . . Hillary was minutes over her talking time. Rambling. Over Wolfy's multiple requests that she stop. After 3 minutes of waiting, Bernie flatly chimed in bc it was his turn. Wolfy, expressing his loyalty, stoked the scale of emotion by reprimanding "them both" instead of just Hillary. Pathetic. CNN= Clinton News Network.
No joke.
Ultimately we lose. Bc our media is unconscionably irresponsible.
Good people have always had to work harder and smarter to get anywhere. So brace urselves. Bc this revolution will not be televised.
