wish i were surprised. waiting to see what excuse is made this time

[vindictaa]

right? let's see how the media treats this, idk how often the story will be picked up and how it will be contextualized.

[fauxkaren]

It won't be reported on, lbr:

[koushiba]

It hasn't really been, most reports seem to be coming from the conservative news media.

[vindictaa]

yeah lots of conservatives saying if this was a republican saying this, it would've been everywhere. which is a fair point. if it was bernie it would be every where too.

[shakeyobootay]

then use google. I think there's legitimate dialogue to be had about tone in this race. But are we no better than trump with his "mainstream media"??

[koushiba]

Tone down your aggression c: thanks

[spiritoftherain]

No better than the blowhard of a conman who's been condemned for his remarks by world leaders across the globe?

That's quite the low bar to compare yourselves to!

i was trying to be optimistic lmao when i saw this, there was 1 article of it on a pro-bernie site, on the one i sourced and 2 more and less than 10 tweets about it. probably won't get better than that.

[headcaseheidi]

the media will completely ignore it. i meant her followers - but looks like they're taking the media's lead, as per

[vindictaa]

oh yeah her followers will ignore it, no doubt. or just won't care. there is no critical evaluation in her camp.

[headcaseheidi]

the de facto response is either ignoring it, or bringing up bernie in a negative context hoping to lessen the responsibility for her

[vindictaa]

lol that's always it. it's a formula.

[blackjedii]

We totally meant Central Pacific time! reallly!!!! it's just sexism working against her!!

[headcaseheidi]

"no one would care if a man made the same joke!!!!"
