Wonder why MSNBC is in the tank for Hillary - could it have anything to do with this?

I wrote a little response on #37, http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511270740#post37 , but thought maybe some of you might want to do a little more with this. In the meantime I'm going to bed.

1. Aww jeez

2. Disgusting

3. My view...

... is that use of these links should result in an instant tombstone. Like back in the good old days when this was a site for Democrats.

7. Totally agree

8. They used to be good for a hide, at least

12. There are honest mistakes, for sure...

but these things seem to happen quite a bit lately.
I figure when a newbie does it, they either don't know
what they're doing, or are RW trolls making Freudian slips.
When someone who's been here for a long time does it,
it probably just shows how deeply entwined Bernie's
"Revolution" is with the TP style conservative discontent.
He probably picked up the link from a pro-Bernie message
board (well, a non-DU one at least...*sad Haha*).

I'm pretty sure I've screwed up before, but I usually take
the time to see how legit the outlet is before I post.

4. I agree

with wysi.

5. That whole thread

is like a visit to the land of make believe.

9. Here's another, from Rupert Murdoch's New York Post. In Late Breaking News

to add insult to injury.

Pro-Clinton PAC desperate to make Sanders look bad
Team Clinton launched a harsh attack Thursday on what it called Bernie Sanders’ “troubling history of campaign shenanigans” — but the supposed offenses were so minor that any dirty trickster would find them laughable.

I did a Statement of Purpose alert on this being an opinion piece (not allowed on LBN) and pointing out the source as well. The more such alerts the merrier....

10. really sad. Use right wing sources against Hillary on DU has been going on for some time

[Cha]

14. It's funny how they ratonalize that.. they're so addicted to posting bad news for Hillary any

smear will do. Keep 'em coming.. Hillary Hate Inc.

11. K & R for exposure. nt

13. Wow, just wow.

I thought linking to Fox News was bad. But CNSNews?? Really???

15. Well, when that's all you have.

If you are not raising money to help other Democrats down ballot to win their races, are you really a Democrat? Apparently from all the data I have looked at, Mr. Sander's doesn't appear to be interested in helping fellow Democrats win their races. Without a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate, his campaign promises are just smoke and mirrors. I have to laugh if he thinks the rebukes will just crumble before the powerful Bern.
