Supporters protest CNN's coverage of Bernie Sanders
Protesters upset with CNN's coverage of Bernie Sanders stood outside of the network's Los Angeles bureau on Sunday, holding signs accusing CNN and other media outlets of bias against him.
About 2,000 people gathered on Sunset Boulevard, NBC Los Angeles reports, with many saying they don't think CNN reports enough on their candidate, ignoring him for candidates like Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. Protester Stephanie Lieb said she believes "a lot of candidates have been treated unfairly, but I think some have been obviously favored, [like] Trump and Hillary. Those are really the two that everyone's hearing about. People are hearing about Bernie but they don't understand what he's about." CNN has not commented on the protest.
