Bernie Sanders supporters protest election coverage at Hollywood CNN building
HOLLYWOOD (CNS / FOX 11) - About 200 people lined both sides of Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood on Sunday, and protested CNN political coverage outside the network's Los Angeles bureau.
Campaign supporters of Bernie Sanders said they were unhappy that corporate news media were covering Donald Trump's campaign extensively, but ignoring issues that Sanders is raising.
The protest was being live-streamed to the Internet. Los Angeles police cars were visible parked along the street.
"I used to be a CNN junkie, I used to watch it 24/7,'' said one protester on the feed. "Now, CNN spends 90 percent of the time covering Trump, and there are so many issues other than Trump arguing or bickering with people.''
Los Angeles police said they were aware of the peaceful protest. No arrests were reported, and march organizers said on the video feed that they were working with police to ensure all laws would be followed.
The CNN national desk was unable to provide a spokesperson for the cable channel on Sunday.
