No candidate in modern history ever received more media support than Hi Larry.

This fully illustrates just how bad a candidate she was.

Trump out campaigned her by a factor of 10 even though he was relentlessly attacked 24/7 by that same media.

This fully illustrates just how bad a candidate she was.

The issues you felt were important, minimum wage hikes and a partial push for tuition-free college, all register miserably with voters.

Maybe that explains why she ran "Trump is a meanie!" ads 10-1, maybe 20-1, over ads with those "issues" in Pennsylvania on every commercial break on every news show on every network for three months.

Hillary is working much harder to prove she’s not a loser than she ever worked to win the election for a position she thought was hers by entitlement. I’m glad we never saw this much energy from her side during the election (except when her staff were blocking cameras and tossing her around like a side of beef).

If the press had honestly, truly, done their jobs she’d have lost by 40 points.

BS of ALL BS!

It was TOP priority by the media to get Clinton into the third Clinton Reich.

This bimbo and many like her are disingenuous and full of sour grapes because the venom spewed from Clinton on her excuse tour has thrown the fake news whores under the bus. America can do without Clintons and the agenda driven propagandists disguised as journalists.

Political ads don't convince me to vote for someone or against someone. I make my mind up by myself and don't need anyone to tell me who to vote for.

The same with commercial ads. I don't need to tell me what to buy. No matter how cute or good a commercial is, and there are some.

It is true that the press were bemusedly benign toward Trump during the primaries. They thought they were helping to fragment the republicans; besides, he made for interesting news, day in and day out.
BUT... once he had secured the nomination, the press became utterly poisonous toward Trump. They knew he would lose; but they wanted to make sure he lost BADLY.
Then, a funny thing happened...

Even now the media refuses to investigate voter fraud.

Where's Claude Rains when you need him ?

Thanks to wiki-leaks...this occured a couple of days before Hillary announced.
Notice Amy Chozick accepted the invite.
Notice one of the goals of the media dinner is to Frame HRC message and to frame the race.

No, they merely provided her debate questions in advance, stacked debate moderators with leftists who posited one-sided questions, let loose a torrent of fake polls designed to boost her electability, distorted Trump’s words at every turn, pronouncing him a racist, misogynist, homophobe and nazi and ignored Trump’s good qualities while dismissing Hillary’s bad ones.

In short, they did everything imaginable to get Hillary elected and to act as if it wasn’t good enough for her is the epitome of undeserved entitlement.

“...the Third Clinton Reich”

I like the phrase, but doesn’t that describe the Obama regime?

I agree - totally in the bag for Clintoooon-

“Amy Chozick, a reporter for The New York Times”

They meant to say-for BIG BROTHER- AMY has just
sunk her career- she will be laid off in 1,2,3, sec-

Just like - Jedediah Bila on the View- ask any type
of NON SCRIPTED question and you are gone

ANY Criticism of the royal family- bill,hitlerly,chelsea,
huma, or extended family- balsio,shumer Pelosi,warren-

will get you a one way ticket to hell

” she said that the media covered her emails like it was Pearl Harbor”
Change the word “emails” to “crimes” throughout the article, and it makes more sense.

“Admitting that you suck is the first step to recovery. For Hillary, she’s afflicted with this notion that people like her. It’s a terrible addiction made all the more tragic that no one can really stand her and they hope she just goes away.”

BINGO

The media did not give free air time to Trump. Trump simply would not turn down interviews from hostile reporters.

OTOH, Hillary would not accept interviews from anyone.

The first year Hillary played the inaccessible candidate game. There were rope and fence barriers to access. There is video of news people rushing from one spot to another just to get a shot of her exiting an SUV.

The classic pic in this inaccessible early campaign was Hillary in dark glasses ingnito in a Chipotle restaurant line.

Trump, meanwhile, would do interviews with anyone at any time.

Hillary definitely cut access throughout, and especially after the 911 physical collapse.

Perhaps she thought she was so far ahead in the polls, indicating she believed the polls, that she could only hurt herself by public interviews and appearances. The other possibility is that Hillary knows she’s awful in front of a camera and with open ended questions from reporters, even friendly reporters.

This is proof to me that the media isn’t neutral-—they are very biased.

They are supposed to REPORT news-—not MAKE news.

The more the public realizes that the media has lost it’s purpose, the more they will become not relevant.

Couldn’t happen to a worst bunch of people, IMO
