Friend—Comcast-owned MSNBC just won't stop attacking Bernie Sanders—even if it means helping reelect Donald Trump. Will you make a donation to help reach our Winter Fundraising Goal of $70,000 to counter the corporate media narrative? We're still $34,000 short!
Friend,
On Saturday, Bernie Sanders won the Nevada caucus with a commanding 46% of the vote—more than double the support of his closest rival.
After the victory, MSNBC went into "full-blown freakout” mode.
They described Bernie voters as a “squeaky, angry minority.”
They said Vladimir Putin was the biggest winner of the caucus.
They even compared Sanders’ win to the Nazi invasion of France in 1940—and said four more years of Trump might be better than a Sanders presidency.
The enormous gap between the corporate talking heads on Comcast-owned MSNBC and actual voters has never been so embarrassingly obvious—and as the November election approaches, their bias toward the 1% will become more and more damaging.
Common Dreams exists to counter the dominant corporate media narrative that says change is impossible. Will you donate to help support our ongoing coverage of the 2020 election and the issues that matter to the 99%?
MSNBC might be an extreme example, but it is hardly alone. The corporate media is blind to the needs of everyday Americans because their super-rich owners and executives live in an impenetrable bubble of wealth.
They dismiss broadly popular proposals like Medicare for All and the Green New Deal as “pipe dreams” and “unrealistic.”
Meanwhile, they cheer for America’s forever wars and ignore the massive transfers of wealth caused by 40 years of trickle-down economics and tax cuts for the 1%.
Common Dreams is the antidote to the achingly out of touch voices of the corporate media. But because we have no corporate owners or advertisers, we count on you, our readers, to help us keep reporting the news for the 99%.
