Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders speaks during a television interview after the Democratic presidential debate at the Fox Theatre on July 30, 2019, in Detroit, Michigan.
It was “like clockwork.”
In the middle of a heated back-and-forth on Medicare for All at the beginning of Tuesday night’s Democratic presidential debate in Detroit, Sen. Bernie Sanders called out CNN for airing anti-single payer ads from the pharmaceutical and insurance industries during commercial breaks.
“By the way, the healthcare industry will be advertising tonight on this program,” Sanders said after accusing CNN moderator Jake Tapper of deploying “a Republican talking point” against Medicare for All. “They will be advertising tonight with that talking point.”
