Wait until she finds out that the internet isn't representative of the general voting population. -- nm - MDH Aug 19, 07:58 1
- It is representative of the voting population of Bellevue, however. -- nm - Blue Punch Baron Aug 19, 08:04

- Also true. -- nm - znufrii, drinking heavily Aug 19, 07:34
- They tried to ding her for dancing when she was 19. Like, what the fuck. -- nm - Reagen Aug 19, 07:33 7
  - And most people reactions was "hey, she looks fun!" -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:34 6
    - agreed - - Epiphany- Tour Guide for the Sausage Factory Aug 19, 07:39 5

      - But, we're so droll! -- nm - rollo Aug 19, 07:45
Popcorn futures just spiked. -- nm - Blue Punch Baron Aug 19, 07:23 1
- Heh. -- nm - znufrii, drinking heavily Aug 19, 07:32
Meh. If all you do in your speech is nominate Bernie, that's all people will talk about. -- nm - Inigo Aug 19, 07:04 6
- She did what was asked of her, and NBC News spun it into something different. She’s right. It’s damaging. - Mopsy Aug 19, 07:42
- I disagree that it's a meh thing, nor is that what she is taking issue with. -- nm - ty97 Aug 19, 07:23
- this is more than 'meh' on NBC's part (imo). They screwed up. -- nm - Diva Aug 19, 07:13
- But if you’re a major news org, maybe don’t post a tweet characterizing it as something it’s not. -- (edited) - znufrii, drinking heavily Aug 19, 07:10
- That's all they would give her and it is done every convention. NBC knew what was going on and chose to post that terrible tweet. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:08
- and yet if that procedural stuff didnt take place, Sanders fans would spend the next 2 months complaining about it. -- nm - tRuMaN Aug 19, 07:06
I genuinely think it was just someone who didn't understand what was going on, but it's no time for amateur hour. -- nm - Reagen Aug 19, 07:03 9
- NBC knew in advance what it was. That tweet never should have been posted. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:07
- Probably, but that just speaks further to institutional failures at NBC and the broader media environment to allow that to happen - znufrii, drinking heavily Aug 19, 07:07 7
  - If AOC's tweet is true and everybody was briefed in advance, absolutely. Laziness as part of the MSM. - Strongbad Aug 19, 07:15 4
    - They shouldn’t even have required a briefing, how many conventions has NBC News covered? You’d think there was some element of institutional memory... -- nm - znufrii, drinking heavily Aug 19, 07:22 2
      - yep -- nm - mud Aug 19, 07:53
      - You would think, yes. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 19, 07:37
    - Laziness on the part of NBC. -- nm - Diva Aug 19, 07:19
  - this. Somebody knew and it still happened. Media cries when people don't trust them. Stop effing up the easy stuff. -- nm - Diva Aug 19, 07:15
  - Yep. -- nm - Judge Bane Aug 19, 07:08
