'Relentlessly Negative': Hillary Blasts 2016 Media Coverage for 'Opening Door to Charlatans'
Fox News Insider ^ | 4/23/2018 | Staff

Posted on 04/23/2018 11:35:22 AM PDT by simpson96

Hillary Clinton took some more jabs at the media on Sunday, blaming negative coverage for playing a role in her loss in 2016.

Clinton made her comments at the Pen America World Voices Festival and said that during her campaign, "the mainstream political coverage was influenced by the right-wing media ecosystem."

She pointed to a "false equivalency" in the media's coverage, originally noted by Harvard University professor Thomas Patterson.

Clinton also said that negative news imparted by election coverage "has had a leveling effect that opens the doors to charlatans."(snip)

Clinton also said that media coverage has been more "straightforward" and "fact-based" since her defeat in 2016.

However, she added that she believes that is because it "reflects an effort to avoid the errors that helped Mr. Trump to the White House."

Let me see if I understand this.

Her complaint it that the media didn’t support her.

She just can’t stop. The “charlatans” were decades of liberal Democrats, most definitely including Shrillary.

The Ministry of Propaganda could not have been more accommodating to her Heinous.
They covered up her crimes and trashed Trump at every opportunity.

Hillary Clinton is continuing her “Blame everyone but herself” tour and even many on the Left are tiring of it.

She just won’t shut up.

Hardly a day goes by that she is not yammering about why she lost.

Her people need to stage an intervention. Her brain injury meds coupled with the mass quantities of grain alcohol are not helping her delusional outbursts.

Not helping at all.

Ahem. In my best Elsa voice...

“Let it go, let it go
Can’t hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don’t care what they’re going to say
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway”

Hillary Clinton speaks of "charlatans"??

Hillary and the Progressive regressives have passed the point described by Thomas Jefferson in the following words:

"Nothing is so mistaken as the supposition, that a person is to extricate himself from a difficulty, by intrigue, by chicanery, by dissimulation, by trimming, by an untruth, by an injustice. This increases the difficulties ten fold; and those who pursue these methods, get themselves so involved at length, that they can turn no way but their infamy becomes more exposed. It is of great importance to set a resolution, not to be shaken, never to tell an untruth. There is no vice so mean, so pitiful, so contemptible; and he who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions." - See "Letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785," in Thomas Jefferson: Writings (New York: The Library of America, 1984), pp. 814-815.

". . . he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world's believing him." - Jefferson

Errors that led Trump to the Whitehouse?

I've been called many things, but never an error because I and a few hundred million people voted for someone other than Hillary Clinton. Deplorable maybe. But never an error or mistake?

Clinton made her comments at the Pen America World Voices Festival

WOW, she's headlining all the major world events. I'll bet next year she is in Pennsylvania with the groundhog to see when Winter is ending.

Hey Hillary Clinton: I have more excuses down here.

As one who read Stephen King's It from cover to cover more than once (back when I was a lot younger) I'd love to see what follows that moment, in a scene starring Hillary.

The only thing missing is how "vast" it is.

Who'd have thought that a "media ecosystem" would dare to try to influence an election? She's just mad that ours was better than hers.
