Bernie doing the same ol’ schtick…
Vermont Senator and Democratic Socialist Bernie Sanders unloaded on CNN and “the corporate media” during a recent town hall event; he was upset at the network for not talking more about healthcare.
“Sometimes these issues about health care, about income and wealth inequality are not talked about in the corporate media,” Sanders said. “And it‘s time that we did talk about them. That‘s why the question a moment ago, why are people losing faith in the American system? We don‘t talk about it on CNN. We don‘t talk about it in Congress.”
“When I‘m running around the country with Alexandria [Ocasio-Cortez] and other people, what we are trying to do is demand that working-class people begin to stand up and fight for their rights. There is no reason we should be the only major country not to have health care, not to have paid family and medical leave, etc.,” he added.
Anderson Cooper chimed in, saying they were “literally talking about it right now.”
“Yeah, but I’m forcing you to talk about it, Anderson!” Sanders shot back.
Watch the moment above.
Cooper also went viral on X for misgendering a member of the town hall audience.
