‘Corporate journalism’ hurt Sanders

The Fresno Bee should be heartily ashamed. There is no excuse for printing a story the day before an election about Hilary Clinton having enough delegates to win the party nomination. Of course, many Sanders supporters stayed home –– that’s shown by the low voter turnout statistics.

Would he have won without the story? We will never know, will we?

This story does put the lie to the ridiculous conservative claim of “left wing journalism.” What a crock! This is just the latest of many examples of corporate journalism harming or ignoring progressive stories and candidates.
