CNN Ignored DNC's Request To Not Count Superdelegates Before They Vote

Cenk was recently on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” to argue that networks shouldn’t include superdelegates in their official totals until after they vote. Another person made the same exact same point on CNN a month prior: Luis Miranda, Communications Director of the DNC. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down.

“It’s really important to report these [super-delegates] in a completely different way,” she added, in the event her repeated admonitions on the topic had been unclear.
