CNN just showed Bernie speaking for all of about 20 seconds before cutting away just

[Uncle Joe]

as he was hammering home fundamental points about justice to a "Greenland is not for sale" segment as if that meant anything of importance to the American People.

Two days ago Anderson Cooper actually had an excellent interview with Bernie giving him time to make his points and present his perspective uninterrupted, part of which was criticism in general of the corporate media's consolidation and its' adverse affects on democracy, CNN was included in this, kudos to Anderson for that.

Immediately afterward Anderson had an interview with Stephen Colbert, by the next morning the Colbert interview was and is listed on at least a half dozen sites including CNN's.

The Cooper interview of Bernie on 8/15 which was most excellent to date has not been posted.

I have tried googling for it, but to no avail.

It's as if that interview with Bernie never happened?

If anyone can find a video of the Anderson/Sanders interview whether you favor Bernie or not, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks and peace to you all.

P.S. They did just cut back to Bernie for another ten seconds speaking about college tuition.

Now Elizabeth is up for her 20 seconds.

On thing is for sure if the pundits were running for President everyone would know where they stood on the issues.

1. Obviously more bias against poor Bernie

[Uncle Joe]

3. I challenge you to find Anderson's interview with Bernie from 8/15. n/t

24. That was an exhausting search...took all of three minutes

2. Sorry

I googled "bernie sanders interview with anderson cooper august 15th" and found nothing.

[Uncle Joe]

4. That's my point, it isn't posted anywhere, but I viewed the interview.

I have tried googling it every way that I know how.

[crazytown]

7. The campaign should be (and no doubt is) recording all media content

for their own records.

[Uncle Joe]

8. I agree crazytown, they will need to if they haven't.

Peace to you.

9. Bernie can access the clip from CNN and post it on his twitter page - most public figures do this...

[Uncle Joe]

10. I hope he can and does but why can't we?

Why wouldn't CNN post it as they did the Colbert interview?

[Skya Rhen]

15. They randomly include videos on their site. Last week, I tried to find a Cuomo segment that I found

very interesting but they never posted it...

[Uncle Joe]

17. I just found it odd that an interview with a major Presidential candidate

wouldn't be posted by CNN on google whereas the Colbert interview was, nothing against Stephen Colbert, I like him.

Thanks to crazytown using Bing as a search engine, the interview with Bernie is posted below.

[LongtimeAZDem]

22. All you have to do is bring up the August 15 AC360 segment, and fast forward to it

sheesh

[crazytown]

6. I can't find the 8/15 Cooper interview on YouTube

Last edited Sat Aug 17, 2019, 01:12 PM - Edit history (1)

What I did find, posted by CNN was a five minute piece titled
"Bernie Sanders makes Trump-like attack on Washington Post"
I won't bother to link it.

[crazytown]

11. OK - found this - Premiered on August 15

Cooper/Sanders 10 minute interview beginning at 14.55

I used Bing's search engine for videos.

[Uncle Joe]

12. I never thought of Bing, thank you so much crazytown.

27. Your headline says that CNN let BS speak "for all of about 20 seconds

before cutting away" to the Greenland story.

So it was actually almost 10 minutes?

[Uncle Joe]

28. The 20 second clip, that I referred to was today, a speech at the church in Georgia.

The Anderson Cooper interview was two days ago.

[lapucelle]

29. Was it a live remote report from the same event in Georgia where E Warren spoke?

If it was part of a general news block or a cut-in, I don't think the expectation would be that they would air a long segment.

I only saw little bits of coverage of that event throughout the day.

[comradebillyboy]

13. Attacking CNN and the Washington Post won't

broaden Sanders base of support. Instead of whining about how mean the "corporate media" is maybe his campaign should focus on why Sanders is failing to win African American support and why his base is shrinking. If he gets this worked up about the mildly critical news coverage he's getting now I can't imagine how he would react to a full scale Trump assault if he were the nominee much less the kind of hostile scrutiny Hillary got.

[NYMinute]

14. Whining is a sign of desperation nt

[George II]

16. The report was on the event itself, it wasn't intended to cover the full appearance of any....

....of the speakers.

Did you see the two people sitting behind him while he was speaking? The man looked like he was texting something on his tablet (not paying attention) and the woman sat there glassy eyed.

[Uncle Joe]

18. Did you hear the audience enthusiastically cheer Bernie for the brief time he was on? n/t

[Uncle Joe]

19. P.S. I didn't expect the full speeches to be covered but 20 seconds, just to cut away for

"Greenland is not for sale!"

How much import is that subject to the American People?

[SidDithers]

20. Does he ever really say anything different?...

Isn’t part of his “charm” that his message is so consistent?

Maybe people are just getting tired of hearing the same thing from Bernie over and over.

21. The cries of victim hood are endless.

[cwydro]

23. That's about 19 seconds longer than I could bear to listen.

Too bad.

[Margot]

25. That is unfair

I don't support Bernie (though I always liked him), but his overall treatment by the media this time around has been grossly unfair. He is a top tier candidate with a devoted following, but media coverage is generally negligible, and what coverage exists is often harsh. He has been not gotten the positive hype given to Elizabeth Warren, and is often portrayed as running a weak third--even when many polls still show him in second place.

I think there are factions in the media who want to marginalize him, believing (probably correctly) that his supporters will gravitate to the weaker, less competitive candidate (i.e., Warren).

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. Thats odd, I dont see it AT ALL.

Reading this stuff about Bernie being mistreated by the media makes me wonder if I walked into a movie halfway thru but dont know it.

And I consume MOUNTAINS of msm daily.

[Me.]

31. i Cannot Relate To Your Claim

In my view, I can hardly turn on a Sunday show where he isn't featured and his interviews are countless. His complaints are a common ploy to guilt the media into even more coverage. The problem is his story hasn't changed so everyone knows what to expect right down to the pointed finger in people's (especially women's) faces. And, his hires are insulting and combative so I expect a lot don't want to interview them and when they do I bet, channels get changed, ratings drop.

[Green Line]

30. 20 seconds of Bernie is enough

He’s been saying the same thing over and over for 30 years or so.
