TNR gets Hillary wrong
The New Republic has an article about how Hillary Clinton’s campaign manipulates & intimidates the press in order to block negative coverage and promote cooperation between the MSM and her campaign. Personally I can not say I am either surprised or impressed. I do agree with the basic premise that the Clinton campaign has been masterful at manipulating the MSM coverage of their candidate, but the fact is - and TNR doesn’t point this out - the majority of these supposed reporters are all more than glad to go along. What they do point out is how they, in their BDS infected minds, feel Hillary’s campaign was able to start doing this because of the Bush Admin doing the same. What a crock of shit. The Bush Admin didn’t go into an adversarial mode with the MSM - and as far as I am concerned is still way to friendly to the BDS infected MSM - until after these tools started divulging every national security secret they could hurt the country and the GWoT with if they exposed it, and after being stabbed in the back repeatedly by both the MSM reportage and the democrats whenever they attempted to reach out. Remember all the talk about bipartisanship - meaning doing what democrats/leftist tools want and not what the people that elected you want, even if you were the one that won the election - back at the beginning of the Bush Admin? I do. Of course, what do you expect from people that report that they want to do the hard hitting Hillary stories but just can’t when it is obvious they have all bent over backwards to kiss her ass. Hillary has been masterful at avoiding any real reporting, but the reason she can do that is because she carefully orchestrates who gets to report, and those reporting would never give her any real trouble - don’t be fooled by the fluff pieces pretending to be hard journalism because all they are really doing is trying to make her look human and piss off the women vote by creating the illusion Hillary is attacked because she isn’t one of the boys- anyway.
We will not get the truth about Hillary until she destroys our economy and straddles us with the greatest socialist expansion ever. Of course as we thenn really see people that object silenced and the left resorting to drastic measures to curtail information and silence the opposition, I doubt the idiots that cry “fascism” about the Bush Admin. will be doing the same. Buyer beware.
