Don't even own a TV, but CNN was on at work during lunch, so I checked it out curious if Sanders extorfinary weekend would be talked about. I think it was Jake Tapper (?) who was on...plenty of talk about Trumps flap over his McCain comments, a little about Hillary speaking somewhere over the weekend, and even the reaction O'Malley got at NN when he said "all lives matter".

Not mention one of Sanders...at all.

Doesn't surprise me...they appear to be going into ignore mode. Won't work, though.
