I suppose the collusion is more guilt-by-association -- the DNC's tight relationship with major media means unfair activity on their part will be amplified in the press, and given the extremity of the bad-faith activities in this case, anger at the press is justified. But I concede that direct collusion is unlikely, and probably not even what folks are angry about if they choose their words carefully. Bernie's campaign tread over many sacred cows -- Palestinian rights on national TV?? Single-payer health care?? Labor?? (The press HATES labor!!) -- so add their institutional hostility to a left-wing candidate, and collusion isn't necessary.
