Oh cool, just started watching CNN shows from today and first thing I see is Inside Politics and immediately the propaganda is turned up to 20. Every poll has Bernie kicking everyone else’s ass with 18-34, so they show that one Quinnipiac poll and ask if AOC can help w the demo
And show warren beating him with that group, because they selected the only poll that has numbers completely different in the demo breakdowns than every other poll out there
1) Rather than post the whole clip, I’m just going to show a few screenshots of things they actually put on screen. Here’s the first:
2) Wtf is this graphic even supposed to mean? It says in bottom right hand corner “Source: CNN , Quinnipiac Univ. Polls. Yet it has nothing to do with CNN polls, they ate literally just adding their name to give an extra source. Ya we know CNN is Making the claim,
3) we are watching the segment. The last CNN poll was a month and a half ago and had Warren at 18 and Bernie at 17. It’s like CNN was Embarrassed to admit they were just using one pollster for the graphic so they added their name to it
4) Next we get the CBS early state polls which they don’t feel the need to add their name to at least, and they show Bernie way down in New Hampshire.... except the most recent poll was by Boston Herald and showed Bernie in margin of error for lead. But let’s get to my fav part
5) they then show more data from The same Quinnipiac poll which they act like is the only poll that exists. They are so shameful they can’t even do a poll of their own or show one of the 6 or 7 national polls that came out afterwards refuting the Q poll and showing it as bogus
6) No other real pollster has ever had a poll where Warren got anywhere near 50% of the liberal vote and certainly no other polls show Warren with a 6 point lead in the 18-34 demo breakdowns. In fact, let’s look at some of the other poll breakdowns for 18-34
7) very liberal I meant above btw, but here are some other poll results in that age breakdown from less than 2 weeks ago. You will notice that the only pollster that has results similar to the latest Q poll is YouGov who seems to be herding results w Quinnipiac
8) You will also see that the previous Quinnipiac released just a week earlier from the current one, and also post Bernie’s heart issues, had Bernie with double the support of Warren in the 18-45 demo. They had Bernie at 44% and Warren at 22%
9) sorry for the typos, 18-35 not 18-45. Anyway That same poll still managed to have Bernie only at 16% and Warren at 29% despite the huge number of 35 and under for Bernie. It was mocked by many people including myself as proving that they were weighting their poll wrong and
10) just as a coincidence one week later they managed to get a completely different results with Bernie down 30% points and Warren up 28% points, numbers I think they fabricated, so people wouldn’t look at age breakdowns and show that they were intentionally misweighting it
11) Anyway getting back to the main point of this thread, outside of this one Quinnipiac poll Bernie leads Warren, if not dominates her, with the under 35 vote and has in every morning consult, every Harris X, every other Quinnipiac poll, every Fox News polls, CNN, Reuters, etc.
12) So CNN and MSNBC have been driving an entire narrative for about 2 weeks of Warren leading nationally and Bernie being nowhere near her, based almost entirely on the last w the Q polls and a bit of help from YouGov and of course by Real Clear Politics just not counting polls
13) that destroy the narrative. Reuters released a poll 2 days ago with Bernie ahead of Warren, and guess what, it’s still not on their site or in the average and probably will never be
14) I’m only one show in on CNN today, and I’ve already seen enough
15) Just watched every show on CNN from Today and outside of a Yahoo reporter saying, in an off comment that wasn’t followed up in any way, that no candidate is getting any headlines outside of Warren, Bernie, or Biden, there hasn’t been a single mention of Bernie’s name
16) not including inside politics where they smeared him as I detailed above. And I mean Bernie’s name, outside of inside politics there has only been one name drop and 0 conversation about Berne/AOC/ or his rally in 9+ hours of coverage
17) it took until 6:31 pm to be exact for Bernie’s last name to be mentioned in a comment that lasted 5 secs..... awesome job CNN
