The Young Turks with a look at the recent presidential town halls and how easy our corporate media is on Republican candidates compared to the Democrats. The other night, Uygur went after CNN's Anderson Cooper for the softballs he lobbed at old Stabby Ben, Big Gulp and Tailgunner Ted.

Later this week, they compared and contrasted those questions with the ones fielded to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders during the Democratic town hall on MSNBC: Democratic Town Halls vs Republican Town Halls

During the recent town hall's some are saying Anderson Cooper was a too soft on Republicans especially when compared to how the mainstream media treats Democrats. Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola, Ana Kasparian and Ben Mankiewicz of The Young Turks try to figure out why CNN's Anderson Cooper asked the GOP candidates such silly softball questions.
