Shame on NECN and parent company, Comcast.

Like so many others, I have been checking the news regarding the NY primary. The broadcast I just saw (10:15AM @ NECN) made me so angry. Coverage about the R candidates, coverage about Hillary and negative coverage about Bernie.

It was said he was behind over 700 delegates. Not so. This kind of a false statement is meant to leave a negative impression on those who are undecided or to sway those who might think they wasted their vote if they cast for Bernie. They made it seen like a Hillary win was fait accompli. I believe the figures quoted include Super Delegates. This should not stand. The "Supers" have not yet pledged.

Why must we be subjected to this baloney? As an individual, I am powerless to fight this. Shame on you, NECN and Comcast!

Then again, I know this is the story throughout the country. Shame on the media, your shameful bias is noted! Which side ore you on, that of the people or that of the money?
