Thom Hartmann: The Media's "Wave of Silence” on Sen. Bernie Sanders & Why



Richard Eskow, Campaign for America's Future/The Zero Hour & Gaius Publius, Independent Writer joins Thom. Two strong candidates have announced that they're running for the democratic presidential nomination. But the media is acting like it's Hillary Clinton against the Republican party. We’ll break through the media's "Wave of Silence" later in the show.

He's got style to go with his honesty.


Excellent commentary that picks up on many of the observations I (we/us) have also seen.

This is a rhetorical question, as he ain't bought and sold like "others"...and therefore ain't playing the game, so he's not included...This is clear, but is bound to change as Bernie starts doing very well in polls, debates and then the primaries. Just watch.
