I think Warren gets—and Bernie mostly doesn't—how to appeal to Democrats' partisan cues. I don't know about the utility of appearing on a Fox News town hall, but Democratic primary voters (at least the ones that would consider voting for Warren) mostly hate Fox.
In 2016, only 1% (!) of Sanders primary voters (and 4% of Clinton primary voters) reported Fox as their main source of news, so it's not like you're forsaking all that large an audience that won't see your message elsewhere. pewrsr.ch/2HjisR2
In certain respects, Sanders's fetish for nonpartisanship forms a poor contrast to Biden's fetish for bipartisanship. For instance, with Bernie reluctant to remove the filibuster, they both seem to be engaged in some magical thinking for how their agendas would pass.
p.s. This is one thing that @AOC gets. She's very much on and of the left, and she's also very much a partisan Democrat, and while she's had a few missteps, it's this combination of things that seems to have propelled her to stardom.
