Clinton to keynote jellyfish journalist gathering, but no questions allowed

Finding Excellence in Journalism among the jellyfish journalists of the day is a lost cause

The mainstream media’s ‘Grouse of the Day’ shouldn’t be why Hillary Clinton reportedly will not be taking any questions at the Toner Prize Celebration, an event honoring “excellence in journalism”, but why Clinton, of all people, would be keynote speaker at such an event.

“Organizers of the March 23 Toner Prize Celebration, which is named after the late New York Times reporter Robin Toner, told the Center for Public Integrity the event would be open to reporters. However, the keynote speaker, Clinton, does not plan to take their inquiries”. (Business Insider, March 5, 2015)

Fire the speaker, and bring in someone else even remotely connected to excellence in journalism.

I seem to recall past events that were boycotted by the oh-so-objective MSM reporters because a Republican declared in advance an unwillingness to answer questions.

They responded by saying “I’m not going to a photo-op.”

The rules are different for Democrats. Hillary is afraid of being asked questions about e-mail, and about foreign governments giving money to the Clinton foundation. We are not supposed to say anything about her having the spine of a jellyfish yet she wants to be entrusted with the most powerful office in the world.

Two to three billion dollars from foreign countries go into the Clinton Family Foundation and not one question is asked?

The REAL newspeople, from FOX, Newsmax, Drudge should be trying to buttonhole Monica’s boyfriend’s wife with some real questions on her way in/out.
