I don't want to harp on the Donna Brazile revelations. The DNC should just issue an apology and get to work making the party apparatus more democratic. Try to earn credibility. But the Clinton soldiers have dug in like Trump.and insist on denying reality (along the lines of "I did not have sex with that woman").
Consider these two excerpts from THE INTERCEPT. (Google THE INTERCEPT TO to read the full article.)

The Clinton/DNC agreement explicitly vested the Clinton campaign with control over key matters during the primary season: the exact opposite of what journalists on Twitter caused hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions, to believe. Nonetheless, DNC-loyal commentators continue to cite headlines and tweets citing the legalistic language to convince huge numbers of people that the truth is the exact opposite of what it actually is:

What we actually know for certain – what exists in reality – is that Sanders never signed any agreement with the DNC that contained the control provisions that were given in 2015 to the Clinton campaign. In other words, the provisions cited by Brazile in her “rigging” allegation did not exist in any contract signed with the DNC by the Sanders campaign.
(the contracts are in the public record)
