8. "Jeez! I find that comment condescending and dismissive."

So the writer was quite effective in conveying his intended effect.

The NYT has no interest in giving Bernie an even break. Expect nasty, gooey little things like this to come attached to anything they write about him. They're hoping to transfer the nasty-gooeys to the candidate himself.

Nice story, but I think Bernie's quotes are quite pithy. merrily May 2015 #1
