This to me just makes Hillary seem a lot smarter than her opponents. I don't think she's the one who should be criticized about this.... If I really wanted to win an election I'd try to get the media on my side too. Brilliant.rssesq said:
The fucking press needs to be put under a microscope though. Is the journalistic ideal dead in America? That is an issue unrelated to Hillary Clinton or any other politician in particular.
But then my third thought comes up.... What exactly was the press expected to do in this case? Act as though Trump is perfectly normal, and a reasonable candidate for POTUS???? I feel like Trump himself put the press in an impossible situation if it's total objectivity people are looking for in this election cycle. I mean, if you had a chimp running against Hillary, would the press be expected to take that seriously too? To not just be honest with the clear fact that a chimp is not a legitimate nominee? I honestly think that is a perfectly valid comparison to the Clinton vs Trump situation and how the mainstream press is supposed to handle it.
FWIW, I think Bernie Sanders got okay treatment from the press, but probably not enough. If we're looking to really evaluate how the press is biased towards Hillary, that would be the case study to look at.Post edited by PJ_Soul onWith all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

I would love to post a video right now to show you how I feel about Hillary.HughFreakingDillon said:
nonsense. but keep whining.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:^^^
It is better to post links to videos.
That way people can choose to click on it or not.
I'd assume though that if it is a positive Hillary video only people can post away.

Reading opinions like this.
No coherency whatsoever.
Of course in no personal way whatsoever as well.

Seemed to me that the press like Bernie. What examples can you give showing that Bernie was badly treated by the media besides the point I already mentioned, which was not enough coverage?tonifig8 said:

What about my post seemed like an excuse to you? Do you not agree that objectivity of the media is the responsibility of the media and not a political candidate trying to win an election?With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

First off, the media wasnt tough on Bernie at all. They didnt challenge his policies and didnt explore his past. I'll buy that he didn't get as much TV time as Hillary, but Trump got more than any candidate and the right wing wasn't complaining about it being rigged for that reason.tonifig8 said:

Second, Huffington Post absolutely fawned over Bernie and savaged Hillary until she won the nomination. And they are not exactly small time. They are in the top 5 media sites in the country. It's where Democrats go for mainstream news and I'm sure you can't argue that point.0 -

Btw, I like O'Donnell as a guest but he isn't good enough to have his own show. He's not that interesting. Rachel is. So is Megan Kelly, btw. I think they are the two strongest political personalities today.0
