...the media treats the Trump vs Cruz race as CLOSE, and NEVER treats the Clinton vs Sanders race as close, no matter how close Sanders gets. This is a very important point in Cenks' rant.

Another is the $4+ BILLION that the Corporate Media gets from political ads, that will dwindle or disappear if Sanders' policies on clean elections succeed. They so-o-o-o don't want that to happen, and thus are outright lying when they include superdelegates in Clinton delegate counts, and in every other respect, including calling Trump vs Cruz close, while treating Clinton vs Sanders as if it were not close.

The Clinton vs Sanders race IS close, and getting steadily closer, as to delegates, opinion polls and other criteria (rally numbers and enthusiasm, small donor numbers, on line activity, creative arts activity). And all the momentum belongs to Sanders.

I worry that the Corrupt Media knows that the fix is in. They were in on the fix in 2000 and in 2004. Why wouldn't they be now?

There is already evidence of a fix in the massive numbers of registered Democrats whose registration status has been changed without their knowledge, disqualifying them from voting in the Dem primary (big evidence in AZ, growing evidence in NY, some evidence elsewhere). There are a couple of lawsuits in progress about this. But the trouble is, it won't be UN-fixed in time to make a difference in the Clinton vs Sanders race. That's what happened in 2000 and 2004. Once the fix is in, the Corporate Media supports it, and it becomes impossible to challenge.

And CLEARLY the Corrupt Media is FOR Clinton, and really deeply hates and fears Sanders.
