There is a pre-requisite form of thinking:

1) Everyone is out to get him.

2) When he loses, someone clearly cheated.

3) There is a conspiracy theory against him involving the Democratic Party, The Republican Party, the media and Hillary Clinton to prevent Bernie from winning the nomination.

4) Bernie is actually winning, but Hillary and the media are conspiring to make it look like he isn't.

So, first pretend you believe all of those things are true and factual. Then it makes perfect sense for a "media blackout" to be associated with some sort of caucus execution issues.

they were all disenfranchised, so there *was* something wrong with voting in all three states, X, Y, and Z, but those are the rules set at the start of the contest. But something was most certainly wrong.
