The Corrupt Media [View all]

So now that the Democratic chair is stepping down, we still have an issue with the press. The political pundits and the major news corporations did not give Bernie a fair shake. It was pretty obvious from the start. We can get our messages out there, but it is the media that has the largest influence on voters. They did not acknowledge Bernie for the longest time. If they are being fed by the DNC, and the DNC is corrupt, how can we change that? Replacing one bad apple with another is not going to get to the core of our issues. Bernie was a threat to the media who feast off of pharmaceutical and Wall Street corporations, two industries that are taking all of the money from middle class and turning us in to drug addicted zombies. Any thoughts out there?
