There was a slight difference in how it was reported. Breitbart emphasized a leftist victory. CNN emphasized a counter establishment victory. As usual, the basic facts were the same, but the spin was there.I'd say they both got it right. The left won and eliminated another more capitalist minded Democrat. As I've said, socialists and capitalists are like oil and water and don't mix well.
I would emphasize the counter establishment theme. One of the things to respect in the red movement is their dislike of establishment figures, one place they are a little ahead of the blue. The blue are hopefully catching up.
