    This is a serious indictment against this country. I mean, our politics sucks, our media sucks, and our political media sucks.

    I'm not a Sanders supporter (I like Warren, Harris and Buttigieg in that order), but this is just fucking ridiculous. When will the broader public realize that the media are corporate-owned and will always serve their corporate masters' interests first?
