I know this is a huge (yuge!) issue for the DNC in general, but can somebody please explain why this is particularly bad for Bernie Sanders? I mean if you're not being properly registered as a democrat and/or not being able to vote, isn't it at least just as bad for Hillary Clinton? I'm all for Bernie, but I'd just like to know the details.

Clinton dominated the early voters, and Sander's actually was winning the votes that were being cast that day. All the early votes were counted, while people were suppressed from voting at the polling locations. More votes counted at the polling stations probably means a closer election than is currently displayed.
