The takeway here is this:

Regardless of who did better in the eyes of those of us who watched the debate, thanks to mainstream media reporting on the debate, Clinton will be viewed as the overwhelming winner amongst people who didn't watch the debate.

It's terrifying knowing that corporations like Time Warner (owner of CNN) can essentially skew/sensor/filter and/or manipulate the news to influence people's opinions.

As someone said above, Time Warner is a contributor to Hilary's Campaign.

Somebody somewhere is giving orders for this shit. I worked in TV news for over a decade. Making shit like this happen requires real continuous effort from the execs, they have to get truly supplicant producers who will turn on them in a nanosecond.

Give us a name, who is changing the news at the order of whom, and we burn them. It is that simple.

I'd imagine the influence of the mainstream media is less than any point in history because of the internet. That's probably a good thing.

And that's why this campaign for Sanders HAS to be unprecedented. We need to throw away the old media and establish a new paradigm that's populist focused.

I know it's not popular to say, but I expected Sanders to perform much better against Clinton. I'm sure the online communities are pushing hard for Sanders, but I doubt the online polls are an accurate reflection.

If you are a Sanders supporter, this wasn't a decisive win. This was a great opportunity to get people who've never seen him to start developing opinions.

[–]NaptownSwagger [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

You know what? That's fine. Let them build Hillary up as the inevitable nominee, let them build her up as the undisputed front runner. Bernie is still ahead in Iowa and New Hampshire, and if it looks like an underdog win all the better for Bernie.

edit: /u/case-o-nuts is right, the Iowa polls aren't as favorable as I thought

[–]case-o-nuts [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

ahead in Iowa

the 2 polls that showed that seem to have been outliers.

[–]Nitroxium [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

That has yet to be proven. There are two legitimate polls that contradict those polls, one of which I'm sure didn't concentrate solely on caucusgoers. So we have yet to see which is the true outlier.

[–]wordwordwordwordwordTexas [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I think enough former undecideds/Clinton supporters watched the debate that Bernie will gain a few points in the polls regardless of the media spin.

Also, the people who will buy the media's spin are mostly people who already supported Clinton

[–]je_kay24 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Yup was watching CNN this morning about fact checking the debate. They clearly labeled as Bernie being wrong on facts and Hilary being right.

[–]MrKrazybones [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I loved how immediately after the debate everyone was like "Hillary won, she did everything right" but an hour after, you'd hear people bring up how she bounced around topics, changed her views to better fit democratic agenda, and used her gender to answer questions. After that I went to bed so idk what else changed.

[–]TenAC [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Exactly. These polls are skewed anyway due to people voting typically are motivated to vote... not just the general and more 'casual' public.

Meanwhile nearly every other poll online shows Bernie winning by a landslide

[–]Skizm [スコア非表示]  (33子コメント)

The internet population over-represents the younger crowd. The actual voters over-represent the older crowd. Internet polls are interesting but definitely not indicative of the actual numbers.

That said, CNN are obviously scumbags for removing a poll because it didn't turn out the way they wanted.

[–]bingaman [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

Actual voters, historically speaking. I think we're all working for a historic turnout of younger voters in the primaries.

[–]NaptownSwagger [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

Seriously, people keep saying that "young people" don't turn out to vote, but how often does that group donate to a campaign the way they have for Bernie? I'd say there's already been a historic shift in participation this campaign, why would that change for the election?

[–]PhysicsFornicator [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

If you look at the electoral college maps from '08 and '12, removing the 18-25 demographic put the Republicans ahead by a landslide. People keep discounting the "youth" votes because they don't view college students as adults, and they want to see themselves as authorities on important issues that the "youth" "wouldn't understand".

Digital democracy? Where those who can't vote influence the elections of another country.

I think that some people don't realize that in a lot of these internet polls, there are a group of people who's not American and yet they participate in those polls. May it be because they understand how international politics work, or because they just like a candidate. But it can not be denied that it has an influence in the perception of popularity of certain candidates.

Drudge Report, whose readers lean very conservative, also had Bernie winning at 54% to Hillary's 9%. Webb got 25% from their readers. Bernie appears to be connecting with "regular" people, conservative and liberal.

[–]unclewaltsband [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

But how did they come to the idea that Hillary won? I don't see any polls in their article. They just decided it for everyone. If the internet poll is is biased, then CNN is extremely biased because that decision was made by probably one or two people. I'd like to see a scientific poll. Hopefully one will come out soon.

[–]lennybird [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I agree completely. Any such non-scientific poll is mere fluff and shouldn't have been posted in the first place. Obviously it over-represents the youth and under-represents older ages; that should've been expected. Which is why they shouldn't have done such a poll in the first place unless they were willing to accept this from the start.

Or, you know, do your work and perform an actual scientific poll with proper random sampling.

[–]foobar5678 [スコア非表示]  (10子コメント)

That poll raises some red flags. I just voted, then afterwards it asked "what issues would you like to see next" followed by a list of the most nonsensical "issues" I've ever seen. Including (in their exact phrasing):

-Bill Cosby
-MH17.
-issues.
-politics.
-life.
-outside of work.
-early release.

Seriously? What does that even mean? The next issue should be "issues" or "politics" or "Bill Cosby"... Really?

[–]TheTurtleBearBernie Squad - Cadet [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

I don't think that's a continuation of the debate poll, I think that simply asks which topic you'd like to take part in next

Possible, but it doesn't let you type your own answer, so where the hell did they get that list?

[–]green_euphoriaNew York [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Also it must be an extremely small sample size because now it has Bernie tied, by the time you look at it again, he will be winning.

Edit: he's winning now, and it lets you vote repeatedly :/

I, for one, am SHOCKED that CNN would do something like delete a poll that they held that went against their own narrative so heavily.

This was going to happen with CNN having so much invested in Hilary.

They will push for the next 2 weeks about how Hilary won and they will slowly fade out the pro Berne material, such as the poll.

What needs to be done by the people is to collect all that material as comes and keep it fresh by repost so it doesn't fade out.

Screenshots, and the like, of things like that poll should be constantly circulating the Internet. If all it does is show how disgraceful CNN have been, that would be a positive step.

As much as the campaign is funded by money by the people, it needs the people to help in its media coverage... screen grab, video edit and record everything possible to create our own media to counter the very broken CNN and other news corporations.

This is ridiculous, CNN is such an obvious puppet of the Clinton regime.

Unfortunately, there isn't much we can do about that. What we can do however, is continue to contribute. Every contribution counts so be sure to donate to the campaign, even if a small donation.

And the fun doesn't stop there.

After Bernie gets elected, you then get to make even more contributions!

For everyone's free college, for everyone's free healthcare, for everyone's crappy wind turbines and solar panels that won't work, for everyone's unemployment checks after jobs leave America at an alarming rate, for NASA to land men on a big red rock in the sky, for millions of illegals education/healthcare, and much much more!

Fortunately, instead of making those donations yourself, you can just pay the government and trust that they can do all of these things correctly without wasting your money! How great is that??? The government is so trustworthy and not wasteful that we should pay them more and more so everything can be free! The more you pay, the more things are free. No fallacy here. And there is no way we will run out of money, one liberal economist said so!! The other economist who disagree are wrong!

[–]kvachon [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Internet polls are meaningless. Do you not understand this? This sub was literally telling people to flood the polls last night. All it proves is that bernie supporters are passionate. If it meant anything else we'd be in President Ron Paul's second term. He won a lot of internet polls too. Be realistic with yourselves for a change. Stop trying to blame "the media" for any and all problems with this campaign. It does literally nothing to help your cause. If scientific polls come out in a few days and show Bernie with a huge lead, then you can say the media called last night incorrectly. Not before then, not based on gameable internet polls.
