So last week Senator Bernie Sanders (D. VT) launched a huge campaign kickoff live stream. I wanted to do a piece covering the event but focus it on the grassroots efforts, especially with younger voters. The UCLA based group, Bruins For Bernie, were kind enough to film their event. Since this is a news piece I had to strike a good balance between portraying the Sanders campaign in a positive light while also being fair in my coverage. I think we struck a right balance and the Bruins For Bernie group was very pleased with how this turned out. They will be my main contacts and they are pushing to get a Sanders event going on UCLA's campus. My overall goal is to cover the Sanders campaign for Opposing Views and hopefully score an interview with the big man himself. It's really a shame how the media hasn't covered his campaign events and I am aiming to fill that void. So let me know what you think (please be gentle, this is our first one) and please do Subscribe to the Opposing Views channel for more coverage:

Also, for anyone who wants to contact me about Sanders events and campaign coverage in Los Angeles or California in general, please do shoot me a message.
