Oh, yes he did:  Avowed Communist socialist independent Bernie “Karl” Sanders (Marxist-VT) is squeaming that…
…are you sitting down?
…there aren’t “progressive” TV or radio networks to combat Fox News.
Let’s get this out of the way before we continue.
All together now: 
“I’ll tell you what else we need to do,” Sanders said. “We need to understand that it is very, very hard for the president or anybody else to take on not just the Republican Party, that’s the easy part – to take on all of right-wing talk radio, which covers 90 percent of talk show hosts, a whole Fox network which is nothing more than an arm of the Republican Party and the Democrats got to think long term. Why is there not a progressive television network?
Bernie-boy doesn’t get out much, does he?
Bernie, m’boy, ever heard of (deep breath) ABCNBCCBSMSNBCCNNHeadlineNewsPBS…
Why aren’t we supporting good and effective personalities on radio as well and building up a network there so that we can that kind of political consciousness-raising that the Republicans, in fact, are doing so well right now.”
(another deep breath) …ABCRadioCBSRadioNBCRadioAirScaremericaNPRCNN?
No?
Gee, why am I not surprised?
“If it is harder to rile people with hope than it is to rile them with fear, it may be hard to go sort of base versus base, activist versus activist, honestly shouting person versus shouting person at some of these events and in terms of competition for the overall narrative around health care,” Maddow said. “Do you think that people who are saying, who are promoting these myths – that the president does want to kill old people, all these crazy things about health care reform – do you think they should just be ignored? Is it worth debunking them or mocking them?”
Gee, Madcow, honey – maybe it’s that it’s a little more believable of Demoscum than it was when you bastards were accusing Republicans wanting to poison the air, dirty the water and throw Grandma down the stairs, y’think?
“Oh no, I think what you are doing and all of us have to do – we have to call a lie a lie and they lie a whole lot of times,” Sanders said. “And we have to hold the Republican Party and the officials who support these lies accountable. But that’s not enough. What we need to do is do what Obama did during is very brilliant campaign, as that is rally tens of millions of people to stand up and say that health care is the civil rights issue of the moment, that is not acceptable that a million people a year, this year are going to go bankrupt because of medically related costs. We need to do grassroots organizing.”
Smell the astroturf!
Fucking asshats.
