2. Howard Dean knows.

The reason he was destroyed was because he vowed to break up the MSM.

[Uncle Joe]

5. This isn't 2004, the Internet is much stronger today and the

corporate media is diminishing in influence, of course it's still a dangerous beast.

To my knowledge Bernie hasn't proposed breaking up the corporate media, but he has proposed overturning Citizens United, which of course is the corporate media's gravy train.

The American People have a choice continue living in a corporate media bubble and trust their brainwashing will be for the benefit of the nation ie; the war with Iraq, funneling blood money to the less than 1%, the Patriot Act, never having universal healthcare etc. etc. or make a stand against oligarch/mega-corporate supremacy and claim our supposed birthright.

Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.

7. I agree, marym, and I believe the people are waking up to

the corporate media's devastating propaganda.

Peace to you.

10. And they are pushing back.

But pundits and commentators largely gave the victory to Mrs. Clinton, suggesting that her crisp performance could assuage concerns about her candidacy and quell calls for Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. to enter the race.

Are they right? Not according to Mr. Sanders’s fans, who point to an array of online surveys and metrics that indicate he got the biggest boost from his performance.

“Bernie won the debate, yet the corporatists say otherwise,” Claudia Chiuaru wrote on Facebook, next to an article that suggested Mrs. Clinton had the better night. “This is insane!”

Mr. Sanders is known for having an eager army of Facebook backers who promote his cause. Several unscientific online polls did show that Mr. Sanders was the overwhelming winner of the debate, and his campaign offered its own evidence to support that.

“On social media, where Sanders’s grass-roots revolution began, there were more Google searches for Sanders than for any other candidate,” said Michael Briggs, a spokesman for the Sanders campaign. “He was the most retweeted candidate of the night, according to Twitter. He gained more followers on Twitter than any other candidate and Twitter said people talked about Sanders more than any other candidate online.”

If there weren't so many objections - all day long from people all over the country - I doubt the NY Times would have even concerned themselves with this.

11. Thanks, Fawke Em, that's an excellent sign of what I'm talking about

but the people need to stay vigilant and keep the pressure on.

Peace to you.

8. This is why net neutrality is Key!

But it also explains how all the political "experts" agree.
