Sanders - WashingtonPost Feud Erupts

"Move over, Donald Trump. Stand aside, Fox News. There's a new feud underway between a
presidential candidate and a news media organization — this one between a Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders, and the editorial page of this newspaper.
The first volley was the editorial, posted late Wednesday online and in Thursday's print edition, headlined: "A campaign full of fiction." The print edition sub-headline contended, "Sen. Sanders is not a brave truth-teller. He's just telling progressives what they want to hear."
It got even rougher from there. The senator from Vermont is making "fantastical claims about how he would make the European social model work in the United States," ignoring the fact that Wall Street reforms since the financial collapse are "significantly reducing the risks big banks pose," and distorting the fiscal implications of his proposals, the editorial argued."
