(17,301 posts)They convinced us that it was alright for a supreme court to select our president (and we had no protests).
So, I suspect convincing Americans that Hillary won when all facts point to Bernie as the winner is child's play for them. Hell they managed to convince most Americans that bombing Iran when Saudi bombed us was a smart move. So, I suspect the media will try and convince us of a lot of dumb ass stuff.
It's very similar to Venezuela. They have a socialist government but their media owned and operated by their uber rich are constantly attacking their own government and trying to ferment rebellion to put the uber rich back in power. If Bernie wins the presidency, I suspect the relationship between corporate media and the government will be very much like it is in Venezuela.
