2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumRe: the alleged disrespect of Jane by Bernie - an apology
http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/davidbadash/an_apologysnip
Sunday afternoon The New Civil Rights Movement published an article on Senator Bernie Sanders with a video showing him speaking to his wife, Dr. Jane Sanders, as the two were onstage. The article inaccurately described their interaction, and even incorrectly reported his words. The Senator appeared to say to Dr. Sanders, "Don't stand there," and we reported that as, "Don't stand next to me."
Worse, however, was the tone of the article. It described the Vermont Senator as a "cad," which we have no reason to believe is fair.

Was from Bernie supporters denying it.
Didn't really see it being spread anywhere else.
