The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) called out MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd for bringing up a quote suggesting that supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., are part of a "digital brownshirt brigade."

On Monday, during a panel discussion about the candidate's surge ahead of Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, Todd cited a column critical of Sanders' online support.

"I want to bring up something that Jonathan Last put in The Bulwark today," Todd said. "Here's what he says: 'No other candidate has anything like this digital brownshirt brigade. I mean, except for Donald Trump. The question that no one is asking is this; what if you can't win the presidency without an online mob? What if we now live in a world having a bullying, agro-social media running around, hobbling everyone who sticks their head up is either an important ingredient for or a critical marker of success?'"

Boo hoo ADL is mad

What is it with so much self directed fire amongst liberal Jews today

Could they be gettin sad knowing they are going to get their kippahs handed to them in November

Todd is usually lauded by the very folks attacking him

And further irony

They are all afraid of Bernie getting the nomination

You simply can’t make this stuff up

Hi SaveFerris, and those in the days of lot did a lot more than what you suggest of course.

On topic, sorry social media, computers etc., are here to stay and one can only wonder what’s up next.

F Chuck has to stamp down any truth that leaks out. Notice the Trump slam while hammering Bernies brownshirts.
