Sen. Bernie Sanders: Aggressive Class Warfare

“Many important issues facing working people don’t get the attention they deserve, and other issues get a whole lot of issues because they’re sensational or if they divert attention,” says Senator Bernie Sanders of the media’s failures these days. He notes that we’re now seeing a newly aggressive push from corporate interests and the politicians they sponsor, making attacks that have little to do with deficits.

Senator Sanders joins Laura via Skype from Washington, D.C. to discuss the assault on programs that aid working families, the way the media helps conservatives wtih framing, and his state of Vermont’s steps toward single-payer healthcare.
