No, we don't hate the free press. However, we condemn propaganda outlets with a clear bias against certain demographics. Being supportive of the free press doesn't mean that you have to agree with everything

RE: Time for Dems to Cut the Crap: Impeach, or Don't

There's a lot of nuance in there, of course. In the Republican party even the less corrupted elements drive a plutocratic bargain. The Democratic party has had room for Bernie, and more room has been
