So what CNN has done in presenting the data in this way is to mould the viewer's perception from what he or she clearly wants, Medicare for All, convince them subtly that this position is extreme and not as realistic as expanding the ACA, then provide a breakdown of which candidates are for Medicare for All (Sanders) and which are for expanding the ACA (Biden and every other candidate) to bias the reader away from what they want from government.
Biden has been the clear favorite of corporate media over renegade Sanders so this comes as no surprise. Their attempts to stifle and subdue what the people want is endemic to their reporting and regardless of the issue I'm sure they will continue to do more of the same going forward. Eventually they will of course use their "lies damn lies and statistics" to reduce the expectations of all voters into the "middle" so that we again can have the pleasure of voting for the "lesser of two evils".
My hope is that one day, we will ignore the people telling us what we supposedly want, and what we realistically expect to get, and we vote for what we actually want.
