The mainstream media is not so much the
propagandist wing of the democRAT party....
as the democRAT party is the legislative wing of the corporate media giants.
The media creates and drives their agenda via the political uniparty in DC, which in turn, implements the corporate media agenda via legislation.
In essence, the corporate media companies are the ones running the country, not the politicians.

1. The staff was charged to attack any thing that make their boss look bad. The paranoia was such that is could be described as hair trigger
2. If it is deemed unprosecutable, it is ok. Nickle and dime infractions are not to be prosecuted and are therefore OK. It is better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission

These people are Dims and will never be investigated or prosecuted. Just another issue to add to the already huge pile of other items where the DC elite on the Left never gets questioned.

"One of former Attorney General Loretta Lynchs top lawyers at the Justice Department helped edit Obama administration press statements about the infamous meeting between Lynch and Bill Clinton on a tarmac last summer.""The same attorney, Paige Herwig, is now the deputy general counsel for Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee. That panel is now investigating whether Lynch played any role in trying to influence the scope or intensity of the FBIs investigation into the Hillary Clinton email scandal
"
The GOP head of the Senate Judiciary Committee should insist that Page Herwig be removed as deputy general counsel for Democrats on that committee.

Simple: Clinton told Lynch to lay off his wife and shes continue as AG.Ummm, that one does not even need to be deduced. Hillary openly said to the media that she would retain Lynch as er AG if she gets elected... and she said this just 3 days after the tarmac meeting, and 2 days before Lynch made her "decision" to not investigate Hillary. It was an open bribe, published in all the papers, and none dare call it what it was.

BTW, offering anyone a job in the government in exchange for anything of value is illegal.

How did it go from tinfoil hat to accepted history without ever spending as much as a day in the news?
Great observation. I would like to ask that question to some "seasoned" "journalists".

The second question is even more puzzling and deserves a thorough scrubbing if anyone in the MSM can be bothered to ask. There are generally accepted rules for when the government can or should redact information being released to the public. These can include privacy considerations if the personal information of individuals (such as their Social Security number) are included. Also, the government can withhold sensitive information which might endanger national security. But this was a document which contained a list of talking points to be used if they had to answer questions for the press. In what version of reality would a set of press talking points qualify for redaction?
Redacting talking points that would be politically damaging? Not a national security function. Why would our government get involved in the partisan talking points business?
Also, by who's authority was Lynch's itinerary leaked to Bill Clinton? Isn't that a privacy concern for Lynch, since leaking this information seriously damaged her career. Also, there are security/safety issues since Hillary was using a unapproved server located in a closet somewhere.
I will wager a bet that some good agents were appalled at this activity and would be willing to drop a dime.......

Nothing at all wrong with average looking if everything is functioning.
