Late-Night CNN Makes Excuses for Warren Losing: It’s YOUR Fault, Sexist Voters!
By Curtis Houck | March 4, 2020 6:40 PM EST

The broadcast and cable networks were fairly lackluster on Tuesday night and early Wednesday during their Super Tuesday coverage, in large part due to former Vice President Joe Biden’s upsets over socialist Bernie Sanders. But at 3:31 a.m. Eastern, CNN spent almost eight minutes bashing Democratic primary voters as sexist heathens for not supporting Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).

CNN Tonight host Don Lemon set the table, fretting that there were all these “women and their influence or really sort of the lack of influence in this election” despite them being “very strong, very powerful, [and] very smart.”

Throwing in Hillary Clinton winning the 2016 popular vote, Lemon continued to bemoan: “You had this very diverse Democratic Party and then you have the women, you have all the white guys who have the delegates. What's going on here?”

CNN should take it up with Dem voters. I could not vote for/against Fauxcahontas, because I'm not a registered Dem. And had she been the Dem nominee, her reproductive plumbing would not been on my list of reasons to vote against her, no matter how long the list.
