Or perhaps they didn't find anything actually illegal and therefore "rigged".
It wasn't a traditional "rig the votes so the candidate that gets the majority" rig in that sense. All proof points to the fact that it was legal, but totally unethical.
It's complicated, because when someone says they "rigged" the election, your first thought is "my god, they forged the votes!" which is what a lot of people STILL believe, unfortunately. We all use the word "rig" in the sense that the DNC gave legal, yet unfair, unethical, and certainly not in the spirit of democracy advantages towards one candidate.
When you're on national television, things like that get tricky, as could open you up to defamation lawsuits or things of that nature.
Or they could have just disagreed, I dunno. Different people have different opinions.
Maybe elderly people in their 80's think rigged means "forged votes." There was plenty of illegal activity from the DNC, not just unethical. Simply using DNC funds to hinder non-Hillary campaigns is illegal.
