2. Excellent analysis of what the Daily News did to Sanders.

Really, really dirty ass questions, full of WRONG information that anybody would be baffled to answer. On the Fed. On drones. So Sanders judiciously says, "I don't know," as he's trying to figure out what the hell they're asking and what is the pointing of asking him about something that is factually wrong?

Then the rest of the Corrupt Media piled on the "I don't know."

We can hate them for it, and, boy, do they deserve it! But one of Sanders' strengths in every interview I've seen of his is his brilliance at turning "gotcha" questions back round to his message. I haven't read the full interview yet, but it sounds like he wasn't as sharp as usual. And they really knifed him on Sandy Hook. I've never seen him let alleged reporters get away with shit like that before.

TYT says he actually gave good answers on every issue. But they contorted their questions to elicit an "I don't know," then quoted that entirely out of context. There is probably nothing he could have done about this.

It doesn't much matter to me or anyone else. I don't give a damn what the Corrupt Media does or thinks. And I'm pretty sure that most Americans are fucking sick of them. All it means to me is that Sanders was a bit tired--God knows that is forgivable given his insane schedule--and probably should have taken a break instead of meeting with those bastards.

Well, it does mean one thing more: The transglobal billionaire class is shit scared of Sanders. Internals must be showing he might win New York. (He just surged 16 pts in PA!). They wouldn't be gunning for him like this if his numbers weren't on the rise and hers in decline.
