Watching the media ignore Bill Clinton attacking BLM

Should tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about media bias.

Media bias, like corruption, isn't about parties, or ideology, it's about money. Those in power protecting their power. It's one of the reasons being a legitimate outsider makes national success so difficult.

This year, like in the last two Presidential elections, social media has manage to subvert these power structures. But even that can't really stop the media from affecting the perception of the masses completely.

Hopefully, hopefully, the hypocrisy of the Clintonites will be SOOOOOOO glaring after this incident that people finally cop on the the fact that Hillary Clinton has been playing them for fools.

We live in hope.

Bernie stands aside, lets them speak 'RACIST'
Bill ranks the protesters to the dogs and back, doubles down on racist privilege 'THATS OUR GUY'

WTF?

MSM has played that over and over again. I've seen them play it at least a few dozen times (in the background and whatnot).
And they say it over and over again, about Bernie's "problem" with black population.
And How many times did they play that disgraceful video of Hillary getting in the face of BLM protester? MSNBC interviewed a protester that stormed Bernie event. They didn't interview Ashley Williams at Hillary's event.
Can you imagine Bernie chastising BLM protesters saying "You know where black lives matter? Africa!"? Can you imagine what will happen if he said that?

but all those people that called Sanders a privileged white racist, or implied it, even here on DU, they'll just zip their mouths shut and ignore this.

they know they can mostly turn him loose- and they MUST since he is a large part of the owed favors rationale and the only really popular pol in the entire camp.

But, Twitter won't, Facebook won't, DU won't, JackpineRadicals won't, Reddit won't, You Tube won't, Young Turks is already on this, the news will travel pretty fast. Not as fast as MSM fast, but it will be swift and justice will be served.
