I think it's pretty reasonable that Bernie Sanders, who is notorious for being blunt and speaking his mind freely, said something tone-deaf that Warren interpreted negatively at the time. With Warren attempting to smooth things over it seems like some people on her campaign started this shit and the media and angry twitter users blew it all way out of proportion. This might be the dumbest scandal of the primary so far, and that's saying something.

this is correct

unfortunately media's been angling for a Warren/Sanders feud for ages so it ain't just gonna end

I don't for a moment think Warren herself is "behind" it. If she says the exchange happened then I believe her, but I also believe she doesn't think it's anything worth talking about. (joke's on her the media won't let it go)

Mostly I don't think she's dumb enough to be "behind" it, this kind of attack would have absolutely no way of working out in Warren's favour. Way too many people that despise women playing the "woman card" in any sense and I'd say most people view Warren as less trustworthy than Bernie (many online depicting Warren as entirely untrustrable without the comparison). Even if the comments were more negative than I assume it is, it's a hearsay allegation that most would not be willing to believe easily, and it *definitely* wouldn't convince any Bernie supporters in which case what the hell point is a Bernie attack that doesn't hurt Bernie carrying a lot of blowback for Warren.
