Progressives are at least 25 percent of the country, yet we are seemingly less than 1 percent of the media.
If you asked where progressives finished, they would write a derisive article about how progressives shouldn't even be running.
If you think they are on our team, even though they oppose all of our policy proposals, you either don't understand politics or again you're so biased that you treat progressives as invisible, which is exactly my point.
In normal times, this would already be a disastrous phenomenon, but in the middle of a Democratic primary it is worse - it is part of how primaries are rigged against progressives.
When everyone with a megaphone is screaming at the top of their lungs that establishment candidates are wonderful and progressives are unacceptable - and they don't even allow progressives to defend themselves - don't pretend that doesn't have a giant effect on the election.
Can the mainstream media at least not pretend to be outraged and offended the next time progressives attack them? What else are we supposed to do? You have a media blockade on us.
If we're being honest, progressives have no bigger enemy than the mainstream media that amplifies the message of our opponents and suffocates our own.
