Seth Meyers: Bernie Sanders' Rise Prompts Media Meltdown, Establishment Panic: A Closer Look

[Rhiannon12866]

Seth takes a closer look at some pundits and members of the Democratic establishment panicking after Bernie Sanders won the Nevada caucus in a landslide.

1. A well deserved mocking of pundits past their expiration dates nt

2. well no more seth until after the general election

where he will continue to make fun of our fascist dictator... at least right up until he disappears from the airwaves.

Oh, and btw Seth... talking about how France capitulated to Germany in WWII doesn't make you "get off my lawn" grandpa... it makes you well educated in history.

6. What are you talking about?

What do you mean "no more Seth until after the GE"?

And also, I thought his bit about Chris Matthews was hilarious! He did sound sound like an unhinged old man.

And hmmm. Been talking with some politico friends in Florida. It ain't looking so good for Bernie there at the moment. And many more states to go.

Let's give everyone a chance to vote. I am reminded at present about an old adage: counting your chickens before they're hatched.

4. This was a great segment; absolutely loved it. Great post. Thanks! (N/T)

5. Great segment! I miss Seth whenever he takes a break!

I get so cranky without his humor to help me get through the week and laugh about this nightmare! Thanks for posting Rhiannon!

7. Well, it wasn't just a break for him, all the late night guys were in repeats last week

Even Bill Maher! The only one we had to look forward to was John Oliver - who couldn't take another hiatus yet since he just finally came back last week!

And I so agree, we have missed the humor so much! I can only take so much news these days. I was under the weather for most of the weekend, had my shingles prevention shot Friday afternoon and did experience the fatigue they warned me about - I know you had yours as well.

So I mostly watched The Jeffersons marathon on Decades and realized for the first time (though I've watched and liked them for years) that it's the women on that show who are the smart ones, it's the guys who are often portrayed as (well meaning) jerks!

Anyway, I'm so relieved to have Seth and the others back to help us make it through yet another tough week!

8. Seth Meyers and Trevor Noah both play to the Sanders crowd.

They parrot the same talking points from the Bernie Sanders campaign, which are similar to the Trump campaign. When the media doesn't mention Sanders the media is corrupt and part of the democratic establishment, and when they report him as the Democratic front-runner his supporters are silent.
