Yes the mainstream media did not cover Sen Bernie Sanders filibuster on the Senate floor at all and yes this is why I no longer waste time watching CNN, Fox, MSNBC, and their ilk.<br /><br />Once again, true news came only through Twitter and a couple of AM Talk Radio Shows that cover progressive topics.<br /><br />A friend of mine attempted to post Bernie's URL on his Facebook page, the URL was reported as Spam and all he could say was Google it...how pathetic is that. <br /><br />Facebook, big on you not having any privacy and also big on censoring what Americans see...as huge a fail as the mainstream media was.lamapperhttp://twitter.com/lamappernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7919445796418354163.post-91630159241287837972010-12-11T17:21:33.774-05:002010-12-11T17:21:33.774-05:00I love Firedog Lake.... their article was great.I love Firedog Lake.... their article was great.raybeckermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11063235302436280455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7919445796418354163.post-43117452702040138412010-12-11T16:58:58.893-05:002010-12-11T16:58:58.893-05:00Thanks for a good summation!
