Hillary collapse coverage reveals absurdity of biased media
New York Post ^ | September 14, 2016 | By Michael Goodwin

Posted on 09/14/2016 7:37:31 AM PDT by detective

It is said that history turns on small hinges, and now maybe the presidential race does, too. For hinges don’t get much smaller than the 20-second video of Hillary Clinton collapsing and being lifted into her security ­vehicle.

Without it, Americans would still be clueless about Clinton’s serious health issues. Because of it, she was forced to admit she has pneumonia.

Because they were scooped by the video, an army of journalists is now under pressure to report facts instead of covering them up. Most important, voters got fresh proof that Clinton’s first instinct is to lie, and then lie again.

If not for a cell phone video by private citizen Americans would never know about Hillary Clinton's collapse and the severity of her health problems.

The media had lied repeatedly about Clinton's health and her uncontrolled coughing fits.

The media are nothing but paid liars. They will tell any lie to help Clinton.

Thank goodness that the lame-stream media don’t control ALL the media. We DO get to know some true events.

Was the person who took the "stumble", (H/T MSM), video a media member or just a citizen?

Either way he/she should avoid Fort Marcy park.

Hillary has had a number of these public moments for years. No telling how many health breakdowns she has had that have been completely hidden.

The great fruit of this video, even beyond revealing Clinton's state of health, is that it reveals that the media LIES, Democrats LIE AND CLINTON LIES, LIES AND LIES!!!

I think this video, historically, may rank up there with the Zapruder film.

‘Start with the fact that she ­humiliated the so-called best and brightest news organizations. Despite her unshakable reputation for being dishonest and untrustworthy, Clinton nonetheless managed to snooker most mainstream outlets into believing that her coughing fits were just allergies.’

I find this a completely silly statement. They werent hoodwinked but are complicit and helpful to her campaign running interference when needed. Theyre also strangely uninterested in any story that doesnt fit her narrative. Yet, they become hyper-interested in any story on the opposition esp when its negative. In short, as the title reads, theyre biased to the extreme. Theyre a complete disgrace and have whored themselves for bread crumbs.

The leading cause of death in Parkinson’s is aspiration pneumonia, caused by difficulty swallowing. . .the coughing, choking she does.

The media and the democrats (sorry for the redundancy) are doing all they can to minimize the concerns about The Queen of America’s health. They can’t fool all the public all the time. Only those who choose to be fooled.

I’m hoping that the American public isn’t 100% stupid and that they can see through the media lies and coverup. I think they will get a glimpse of the truth and come to their senses.

FOX affiliate ch12 in Portland censored part of Trumps response where he wished a recovery for Hill and only showed where he talked about his health.

...the press corps closed their minds and treated dissenters like pariahs to coerce conformity. NBC News got the full treatment when it dared to break ranks. Alone among the big networks and major papers, it did a four-paragraph, 91-word story on Clinton’s uncontrolled coughing fit during her Labor Day speech. In a flash, campaign operatives and their media handmaidens declared war on the reporter, Andrew Rafferty, lest others also get the crazy notion that their job is to report facts. Rafferty was mocked and swamped with insults, including from some MSNBC commentators ...

Man bites dog... So there's still some old school journalists... way cool, Good job Andrew Rafferty...

But don’t worry. FacebookGoogleBuzzFeedTwitter are creating a FirstDraft network where they get to verify what’s real news and what’s a hoax.

God help us.

I’ve had pneumonia and you don’t recover as fast as she did. Something they are not telling us!

Not often. And then we're told what we are seeing and are told what understanding to take away from the "events".

Now try to remember exactly How Far all this goes back, They have been Covering for her for Well Over a Year.

In my opinion, since it can be demonstrated without any doubts whatsoever that All of these “news” agencies have been making “IN KIND CONTRIBUTIONS” to a Presidential Candidate, and ALL REVENUES should be reported as such.

Where is the FEC??????????????????????

I agree. The people in the media were mostly complicit. They are simply paid liars.

There are also probably a few who lie because they are afraid of losing their jobs.

Including, I note with sadness, Fox News!

Yesterday morning I watched on more than one occasion as Martha McCallum attempted to equate Hillary's ill health with Donald Trump's tax returns.

Fortunately, David Bossie would have none of it!

Later in the day, a forceful interviewer attempted to force Mike Pence to call David Duke "deplorable" and I found it a bit odd until I later learned the MSM meme was to get Trump, his running mate or his supporters to admit that "at least some percent of Trump's supporters are 'deplorable.'"

Anything to help out Hillary, while she's forced by some malady to quit her "working like a demon" on the campaign trail!
