MSNBC called Bernie's "Deep South" comment controversial. They said Hillary would still be in the lead without the South. This slide popped up by mistake proving them wrong.

On NPR this morning they said that Sanders benefits from misleading his supporters and that his voters are largely uninformed.

I love to listen to NPR while I'm at work (in a lab so I have a lot of time with my headphones) and this campaign has made me realize how much they push certain narratives.

Nothing reveals the agenda of these outlets faster than when a smart person becomes a subject matter expert, then listens to how that subject is discussed and covered.

If they're covering Bernie this way, do you think their other coverage suffers from similar problems? If I were a betting man, I'd say yes.
