PRETTY TELLING: @BernieSanders camp manager @fshakir debunks nonsense from @cnn's @jimsciutto-who lies that majority of Americans don't support Sanders' policies (polls show they do) & shows isolated poll 2 knock down socialism.

You have an army of producers that are more than capable of providing you with all this information. But the reality is—your bias drives you to cherry pick the polls and stats that drive home the narrative you and your network want to push. That’s not journalism-it’s propaganda
