Obama rips media, says Clinton was covered unfairly © Getty Images
President Obama rebuked the media on Friday for its coverage of Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign, saying she was not "treated fairly."
Ive said before that I couldnt be prouder of Secretary Clinton, her outstanding service, the president said during his year-end press conference at the White House. I think she has worked tirelessly on behalf of the American people, and I dont think she was treated fairly during the election. I think the coverage of her and the issues was troubling.
Earlier in the briefing, Obama addressed the theft of emails from the Democratic National Committee and John Podesta, Clinton campaign's manager. Those emails were released by WikiLeaks and received heavy media coverage during the campaign.

They sure didn’t. Ignoring her many heinous crimes wasn’t fair at all.
She was covered unfairly in the media? Obama is making it up as he goes. They had her ahead all the way along until the actual vote count which they could not manipulate.
LOL. I saw first hand that CNN was 100% in the tank for Clinton - I had to walk out of the room when my wife was watching because it was so biased against Trump. God only knows what MSNBC, etc. was doing.
Obama is The Great Divider.
And he’s angry at us for not furthering his “legacy”.
MAGA
Even 0bama still largely gets a pass on anything remotely bad and plenty of fawning Fake News items generated.
Any (R) would die for her unfair press coverage.
Even the folks at CNN and the NYT laughed out loud when he said that.
That’s funny, as the MSM were the shills for Hillary throughout the entire Primaries and General Election periods. But then again, Obama, as well as Hillary, lie all.the time.
So what is he saying? That if not for Wikileaks and what he perceives as negative media coverage, then Hillary would have,won????
Does Obama wonder why Hillary wasn’t 50 points ahead, as she complained about that time????
How many days until he gets "promoted" into "the trash bin of history"?
That's what he means by being "on the right side of history", isn't it?
Jesus. Wasn’t it like 90% negative Trump coverage vs. 60% Clinton?
A 30% edge ain’t enough?
The press has been better to 0bama than Hitler’s own press corps and he still whines about how unfair it is.
Fair = Where you get cotton candy
Geez imagine a POTUS winging and crying - or initiating a” no-fly zone” and nuc confrontation - if someone didn’t treat her “fair”
Like it was fair to call Trump voters “deplorable”
Showed her, didn’t we?
One month left for “Bath House Barry”: please go away enjoy your completely unearned retirement and try not to start a war before you go.
I agree. The media refused to put out the truth about Clinton.She did nothing to help herself by dodging the media,not going to Michigan and Wisconin and in effect I honestly think she had it sowed up or maybe she wasnt able. The Media never complained because they thought she had it sowed up also.
That our country suffered 8 years if this very ignorant, stupid, petty, little man speaks volumes about our citizenry and how far we had fallen.
Thank you Lord for another chance.
Here in southern md. we say fair is where the pigs f@@@.
Amen to that! The bias was obvious.
