    but if you put together the 'sum total of media snippets' from when she was running vs after she got elected it is clear that she has ignored independent media and embraces only mainstream media and puff pieces the sames ones that trash politicians like her and Bernie every chance they get - but im sure she hasn't sold out yet, lets just wait and see how she will vote on the military budget...oh wait

      You mean the military budget she literally voted against five days ago?

      It's not at all clear that this is the case. Without knowing what she's been invited to do or what she's sought out, this is just speculation. And mainstream media is important, anyway, because we're trying to make ideas like M4A and the Green New Deal acceptable in the political mainstream.

          It's clearly not; that's undeniable. We also just elected the only Democratic candidate who flat-out said he'd veto M4A if it somehow got on his desk, so the polling that shows enormous support for it needs at least a few caveats. That huge percentage of Democratic voters don't all view opposition to M4A as disqualifying, for instance.

      embraces only mainstream media

      How dare she appear on media that had the widest reach.
