Alright so now I'm annoyed!

I started watching MSNBC and Rachel went to Bernie and Hillary's speeches. Sort of a
recap. She plays Bernie's speech. Mentions that it is long. Only plays a few seconds of it.
Hillary's speech is next and I really didn't want to hear it again, but left it on. Well they
started playing a lot of her speech! I mean a lot of it! I got mad and clicked off MSNBC.
Since when does the loser get more air time than the winner?!!!!!

That will be the case until November. Media is the establishment. The establishment is now very frightened.

Bernie is mentioned 5 stories down, and then only in the context of Rachel ripping "idea of liberal media, liberal establishment."

Pathetic.

It's because of the web that Bernie's message can bypass the MSM filters and they now know it.

Maybe if your network gave him more airtime in general, he would not feel like this speech was his one chance to reach voters out there who might not be able to research him on the Internet, etc.
