Where's the Bern? Networks ignore Sanders, Sanders ignores today's voting

Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio have all been called for Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump just wrapped up a relatively short speech following victories in Florida, Illinois, and North Carolina. Missouri and Illinois have yet to be called, and Sanders is currently enjoying a slight lead in Missouri.

There’s word floating around that Sanders delivered a speech which no one carried. Well, that’s not exactly true: Hillary Clinton’s source for “real news” carried it.

Most cable taking Kasich live speech, but Al Jazeera is taking Sanders live. Make of that what you will.

If no one saw it, did it happen? Where in the world is Bernie Sanders?

I thought earlier it was a bad sign Sanders was in Arizona and not Ohio or Illinois for a victory speech. @KasieHunt confirming.

Um, that’s odd, considering there was a lot of voting today. Super Tuesday 2?

Sanders is just giving his stump speech. Like today is just any other day on the campaign trail.

Unless he pulls out a win in Missouri, it is just another day on the campaign trail. If he doesn’t want to talk about Super Tuesday 2, we understand.

Seriously? He spoke for an hour?

Appearing before a crowd of 7,000+ in Phoenix, Bernie Sanders makes no mention of tonight's election results during his hour-long speech.

Some Sanders fans (and even opponents) are feeling burned.

Shame on you @cnn @cnnbrk #CNNElection for ignoring Sanders speech – this is not what democracy is about. You disrespect your audience.

Networks Ignored Bernie Speech, Promising Trump Would Be Speaking Soon – Wow. Bernie ignored. Only on C-Span. Sick. https://t.co/yLpQCp1LOb

I'm for Hillary, but it's quite unfair how all the networks neglected to show Bernie Sanders speech tonight.

@nycjim So f'ing disrespectful to a man who has given countless hours to this race. You're the media – let the man speak.
