So consider the bias of the source when evaluating the NYDN endorsement of Hillary Clinton.

(58,785 posts)planning in that editorial board interview for how he might go about making good on his promises to Americans.
No one expects his supporters to toss Sanders under the bus as a result, but you do know that tossing media under the bus instead won't work, right? If this tabloid even noticed at all, it'd just write something about Bernie supporters they didn't like. Best way to handle it is to let it fade into the past and be forgotten. Don't keep poking where it hurts.

(58,785 posts)This is what I mean about the foolishness of attacking the Daily News instead of ignoring it. This story followed their report on the editorial board interview. Don't take 'em on. Don't perpetuate the story.

(58,785 posts)I have never sought information from one of their articles in my life and don't expect to. That's no doubt why they published the complete transcript of Bernie's interview, instead of just reporting on it -- their severe lack of credibility.
I just commented on this thread because I was amused that this tabloid was now a focus of dislike on DU for a rare instance of accurate reporting. Lol.

(12,471 posts)Why should that change today?
They probably gave Clinton here questions in advance, so that her script writers could come up with positions that would be palatable to the masses. Who knows, they could have been coached by the News itself.

(3,017 posts)and given his contributions to the Clinton Foundation and friendship with the Clintons, I suspected Mort Zuckerman might endorse Hillary. What a crushing blow.
