Couple different perspectives from Media Matters staff on that weird Sanders campaign quote about Fox being fairer to their campaign than MSNBC
Good thread from Parker detailing how awful Fox has actually been to Sanders:
Good thread from John about some of the structural issues at play:
I think my take is the Sanders campaign doesn't actually think Fox has been better to them than MSNBC, but finds it tactically useful to suggest as much as a way of trying to leverage better MSNBC coverage, since that would both be more beneficial to them and is more plausible.
Is that short-term thinking that undermines long-term efforts to minimize the damage caused by the president's personal megaphone? Yup.
