Feel the Bern

Sometimes, politicians make a mistake and say something which reveals how politics really works. Like Bernie Sanders (story from The Hill):

Bernie Sanders on Monday said one of the reasons he decided to run for president as a Democrat instead of as an independent was to attract more media coverage. 

“I just happen to believe that in this moment of history, given the crises that we face, it is too late for establishment politics and establishment economics," Sanders said at an MSNBC town hall. 

“We concluded — and I think it was absolutely the right decision, that … in terms of media coverage — you have to run within the Democratic party,” Sanders said.

One thing I have always suspected was the Media doesn't have a "liberal bias", or even a "progressive bias" to be more accurate. The Media supports the Democratic Party, right or wrong. Now I have confirmation from Bernie Sanders. Thanks Bernie!
