WASHINGTON — After each of Hillary Clinton’s campaign events, a large group of reporters gathers on one side of the room and shouts questions at her. She rarely responds, opting instead to ignore them, not even glancing in their direction.
Clinton has largely closed herself off from media questions in the first month of her campaign. Her refusal to take questions stands in stark contrast to virtually all other candidates in both parties, who routinely wade into a pack of reporters after events, often fielding more questions in one event than Clinton has so far in her entire campaign. They also are facing reporters in one-on-one interviews and appearing on TV news programs.
Republican Sen. Marco Rubio on his first day on the campaign trail in New Hampshire answered 10 questions from reporters trailing him, on subjects including running against his political mentor to the theory of evolution.
Business executive Carly Fiorina, also a Republican, went from her announcement of her campaign to a conference call with reporters, taking questions for 40 minutes.
And on the day he officially announced his candidacy this week, Bernie Sanders, the independent senator from Vermont who is running as a Democrat, took more questions from the media than Clinton had in the previous three weeks.
In total, Clinton has taken eight questions from the media since she entered the race April 12.

Her Thighness doesn’t have to answer questions from mere peasants!
Is this her ‘reset’ with the press?
She’s royalty, she doesn’t HAVE to answer questions.
Cruz’s team should add up all the media questions he’s taken, compare to Hillary in new Tweeter campaign.
SHE CANNOT KEEP THIS CHARADE UP INDEFINITELY................
My guess those 8 questions came from shills.
They’ve “sequestered†Hillary.....better then giving her a mike to answer from their stand point. They did so with Michelle Obama as well because she just screwed things up.
IMO...Hillary cannot handle questioning...they are covering for her inability to handle pressure at her age. Just like her tour...everything was staged and set...she simply can’t cope Imo.
All the press are shills................
And don’t hold your breath for the media to do ANYTHING that might diminiss her thighness.
Hillary....No one wants grandma for president.
This must be her ‘Listening Campaign of 2000’ redux. I remember how impressed Big Media was with the fact that Hillary! really wanted to hear from The People. They completely ignored that fact that it was her strategery that she answered no or very few questions. What morons they all must think that We, the People, are!
That’s because the fix is in.
Like I said earlier, the MSM loves Bill Clinton. His wife, a lot of mixed feelings.

She absolutely believes that she does not have to face tough questions. When she ran New York, where she had an overwhelming advantage in democrat voters - even THEN she would not take questions from anyone unless they had a votive candle in front of her picture in their bedroom. She will try to do the same in her race for the presidency.
She has another ‘fainting spell’.
While her underlings are scrambling to find a plausible “What Difference Does It Make” excuse. Gotta test them on focus groups, you know.
