[See NewsBusters for more.] CBS This Morning on Monday uncritically promoted Bernie Sanders’s plan to make college “free” and that his contention that such an idea isn’t “radical.” The segment allowed no contrasting voices. Instead, co-host Norah O’Donnell introduced, “In Iowa, Sunday, he highlighted his plan to lower student loan interest rates and make public colleges tuition free.” She then featured Sanders declaring, “Now people say, “Well, that's a nice idea, Santa Claus. What else do you have to offer?” You know how' we're going to pay for it? We're going to pay for it by imposing a tax on Wall Street speculation.”
