The MSM is now more focused on how "dangerous" Bernie is.

Why listening to them, you'd be forgiven for believing that Bernie is a greater danger to this country than Donald Trump or Ted Cruz or John Kasich or Mario Rubio.

Now about that bridge.....

what MSM says anymore? I believe most of those who do still tune in-must understand what their corporate agenda is.
MSM used to have a much stronger influence. I think that's mostly gone-with maybe one exception...FOX Fans

6. First they ignore you. Done. Then they laugh at you. Okay, we're now past that phase.

Corporate pigs, fuck them. They do keep making Bernie's case for him
over and over again.

14. Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch News, Bertelsmann and Viacom find Bernie dangerous?

That's hilarious. Of course they are deeply invested in crony capitalism
that would allow just six corporations to own the information stream we all must
drink from. There is nothing Democratic in a corporation's makeup.

------

By 2000, six corporations had ownership of most media, and today five dominate the industry: Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany and Viacom. With markets branching rapidly into international territories, these few companies are increasingly responsible for deciding what information is shared around the world.
