Bernie Sanders goes into attack mode, skewering Joe Biden and the media after a string of crushing defeats on Super Tuesday

Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont went on the attack Wednesday following a string of disappointing losses in the Super Tuesday Democratic presidential elections.

He kicked things off at a press conference by skewering the "corporate media," which he accused of adopting an adversarial stance against his campaign.

Sanders said he had dealt with "venom" from some in the media, mentioning that his campaign had been compared to the novel coronavirus as well as the Nazi occupation of France during World War II.

"As we come into the last several months of this campaign, what I hope very much is that what we can focus on is an issue-oriented campaign which deals with the concerns of the American people," he said.
