Gary Johnson questions pollsters as he tries to join Clinton, Trump on debate stage

Gee, TIL George Orwell and many other intellectuals sound like edgy teenagers...

Gee, TIL that an edgy teenager thinks he's George Orwell.

The problem with 1984 is that the government will spy on you and kidnap you if you write that 2+2 = 4 in a private diary. That is not remotely comparable to anything you complained about.

You sound like you think everything's great the way it is.

And you sound like a snake oil salesman who whines that modern medical science is bad because they haven't found the cure for cancer yet and therefore the cure for cancer lies in snake oil.

Media is biased because people are biased, and biased people have freedom of expression. Trying to deny said freedom of expression completely misses the entire point of "1984."

If a journalist honestly believes that Bernie Sanders has no shot of winning, then they should be free to say so. If you disagree, then you're free to start your own competing news agency with a contrary opinion.

I am well aware of the difficulties of making changes. But if you don't try, you get nothing.

Then focus your "trying" on making sure your candidate gets 15% of the vote. Which is a lot more realistic than anything else you've managed to suggest, like your total disregard for the first amendment.

"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man." - George Bernard Shaw

Donald Trump is a very unreasonable man. Does that mean that Donald Trump is now your idol?

As for you r bollocks about Sanders getting lots of coverage and positive coverage... I don't know what study you think you read... But a Harvard study for one says the opposite

Bullshit. Here is what the study said: "Sanders’ coverage in 2015 was the most favorable of any of the top candidates, Republican or Democratic. For her part, Hillary Clinton had by far the most negative coverage of any candidate. In 11 of the 12 months, her “bad news” outpaced her “good news,” usually by a wide margin, contributing to the increase in her unfavorable poll ratings in 2015."

not to mention what I saw with my own eyes

Your own eyes just straight up lied to me about the contents of a Harvard study that everyone can read for themselves, so why the fuck should anyone believe those eyes as an unbiased and omniscient observer for all media in general?
