While the New York Times was writing "Crowley Wins Again" articles the Young Turks Network was following Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez all over the Bronx.


"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a 28-year-old Democratic socialist from the Bronx, has unseated Joe Crowley, a 20-year congressman, in a stunning political upset that sent shockwaves through the party.
Crowley, head of the Queens county Democratic party and the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives, was widely rumored to have ambitions to succeed Nancy Pelosi as Democratic leader in the House when the California Democrat stepped down. He had raised over $3m for his campaign, 10 times the amount raised by Ocasio-Cortez."

I was taken back by the realization that most people Chester County Democratic Committee Endorsement Meeting don't know what the Young Turks Network is. They get their news on cable.
They get their news from cable news that is rejoicing at the piles of Trump and Bloomberg cash pouring in. Cable news is careful to avoid anything that would stop the piles of cash from Bloomberg & Trump.
Cable news "anchors" walk a fine line on reporting news as journalists and embellishing or ignoring news to please Bloomberg and Trump. It's no wonder that CCDC in Chester County, PA leadership doesn't know the threat Bloomberg is to democracy.



"The Young Turks (TYT) is a left-wing,[6] progressive news and opinion show on YouTube that additionally appears on selected TV channels in the United States. TYT serves as the flagship program of the TYT Network, a multi-channel network of associated web series focusing on news and current events. TYT covers politics, lifestyle, pop culture and sport.[7] The program was created by Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz, and Dave Koller. Currently co-hosted by Uygur, Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola,[8] it is also often accompanied by various other in-studio contributors. The program maintains an anti-establishment stance and provides commentary on topics of varying news genres. The Young Turks began as a radio program that premiered on February 14, 2002, on Sirius Satellite Radio; it was later carried on Air America, before launching a web series component in 2005 on YouTube. In 2018, Regional News Network offered it initially on WMCN, its New Jersey broadcast television station. TYT is the longest-running online news show in the world.[9] 
In addition to being carried on the TYT Network and YouTube, it is also currently available on Hulu, Roku, and through a 24-hour feed on Pluto TV. It has spawned two spin-off television series, one that aired on Current TV[10] from 2011 to 2013 and a second that debuted on Fusion in 2016 as a limited-run program developed to cover the 2016 United States presidential election. The Young Turks also served as the subject of a documentary, entitled Mad as Hell, which was released in 2014.[11] The network also has a linear channel on YouTube TV. In 2017, TYT sought to expand its media network and hire more staff through various venture capital fundraising efforts such as a $20-million investment by Jeffrey Katzenberg into the company. The growth of the network over the years has made TYT the "largest online news show in the world".[7]"
