Take that, CNN: This Little Light of Mine Edition!

Faced with empirical garbage from CNN passed off as news, Atlanta for Bernie supporters decided to take matters into their own hands and shine some light on CNN's tactics:





This is an ingenious protest. The supporters didn't deface CNN's Atlanta headquarters with permanent graffiti and they didn't shout down CNN officials - they quietly made their feelings known with non-violent protest. After all, it's not against the law to shine letter-shaped lights onto a building... yet.

Bernie supporters are the best!

I've noticed you are always consistent in your posts to kick threads.

I like that about you.

Even keeled and persistent.

Of course MSNBC sure is giving them a run for their money.

I think this would be a great sign:
Clinton
News
Network

And the cops couldn't find them. It was hilarious.

A brilliant way to demonstrate the disgust people have with the Corp media.

Bernie won the debate. He won it on the issues and that was the conclusion of a majority of the people.

When a media outlet is as obvious as CNN was that they are simply a propaganda machine for the Corporations, people simply find other ways to get the truth out.

Brilliant, I love it!!
