CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield was forced to admit a “mistake” at the tail end of her show Monday morning after a video edit on the network made it seem as though Hillary Clinton just might be laughing about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi, Libya. The former secretary of state was actually laughing about her plans for 2016.
During the report about Clinton’s remarks at today’s National Automobile Dealers Association convention in New Orleans, CNN juxtaposed her solemn remark that her “biggest regret is what happened in Benghazi” with a completely separate question about her plans to run for president, which she laughed off and declined to answer.

What difference, at this point, does it make?
what difference does it make now
They would never give a normal person this courtesy. They would do everything in their power to give the false impression that he DID in fact laugh at Benghazi.
The mediabots are bastards. There is nothing about them that merits even the faintest praise.
How many thousands of times has the media asked her that question about running for POTUS and she gives the same laughing response?
It’s like it’s just a required part of every appearance since the 90’s.
somebody else and you’d have hour long specials “did she or didn’t she laugh?”
Karma that this happened at all.
At least that’s what liberal Califonians usually would say.
Of course, there's probably more people who can fit in a Volkswagen than saw the original broadcast.
Just CNN trying to draw more attention to itself.
I remember Trump telling Wulf Blister that this conversation is meaningless since only 40,000 people are watching...
CNN should have just said “WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?”
Cankles Doesn't Laugh.
Cankles Cackles.
I don’t know about this “explanation”....
actually sounds more like a “my muslim faith” moment to me
Remember what happened to Vince Foster, CNN.
Welcome to George Zimmerman’s world!
