'Journalists' clap and cheer for Clinton during 'press conference'
American Thinker ^ | August 6, 2016 | Rick Moran

Posted on 08/06/2016 7:21:15 AM PDT by detective

Hillary Clinton chose the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists convention to admit she "short-circuited" her answers on the email controversy.

She chose well. During her address, the "journalists" in the audience cheered and clapped for Clinton, interrupting her about a dozen times. And then there was the carefully screened "Q&A" as some of these same "journalists" who had recently been cheering her became little more than props in her campaign asking her questions.

Clinton officials as well as representatives of the two "journalistic" organizations insist that the Kabuki dance between Clinton and the "reporters" should be considered a "press conference" – the first in more than 230 days for the candidate.

Journalists are no longer journalists. They are now simply in-kind donaters to the Dems.

There hardly are any journalists anymore -- cept some bloggers. They just Communists with pencils behind their ears doing political anilingus for the Democratic party.

You know I did notice something moving under her blouse — do you think it could have been a reporter? She did whisper something like, “Wolfie and Chrissey be still.”

Is Huma devoted to Hillary? Or is Hillary devoted to Huma? Which is the puppet master (ValJay)? Which is the puppet (BO)?

Inquiring minds want to know.

The Donald should call Shrillary out on her shabby little Potemkin press conference in front of a pack of clapping MSM trained-seals sponsored by a painfully-obvious DNC front-group.

McLame and Romney played the roles that had been scripted for them. Jeb was ready to play the same role but got upstaged.

And the non-invited white lap dogs MSM will take this like the little plow children they are. The MSM is the greatest blight on the Republic.

I agree with everything you said except “state controlled”. This is worse than that. State controlled means the government tells them what to say under penalty of jail or whatever. In this case, the media doesn’t have to be told, they voluntarily spin, lie, propagate Dem talking points etc without being told and pass it off as fact. To me that is by far worse.

The Founders were right to say the government cannot restrict the press. The Supreme Court was wrong to give the press de facto if not de jure blanket immunity from civil defamation suit in New York Times v. Sullivan. They had a right to print, now they have a license to lie.

Trump should say that wasn’t a real press conference and keep counting the days.

The “journalists” all graduated from leftist “journalism” schools which are largely state schools funded by state and federal governments. So, if you trace back the roots of their leftism, it goes right back to the governments. They may not be owned outright by the governments, but these people and their media companies are completely “state controlled” in a broader sense. It just amazes me that NOBODY comes out of these “journalism” schools with a sense of curiosity or the ability to question and challenge the far-left propaganda they’ve been fed for four or more years. They are brain-washed so thoroughly they dutifully fall in line and obey their masters.

Today’s so-called ‘journalists’ are really ‘Democrat Butt Kissers’... it’s disgraceful.
