Hillary Clinton is in the midst of a tour promoting the release of her book "Hard Choices." However, her rollout, which is widely seen as a prelude to a potential 2016 presidential campaign, apparently includes limited press access.
Clinton, a former secretary of state, spoke at the Council on Foreign Relations Thursday. Though she took questions from CFR President Richard Haass and council members at the event including billionaire editor and publisher Mort Zuckerman. However, Clinton did not take queries from reporters who were seated in the audience's press section. A spokesperson for CFR told Business Insider any member of the group, including journalists, were allowed to ask questions during the event.

The press is part of the left and allows the Democrats in government to spy on their sources and stories, so why would they be mad if Hillary limits their access since she will feed them what they need to report anyway.

Trees that could otherwise be absorbing deadly (sic) CO2 died to produce The Original Mrs. Clinton’s latest soporific.
Hillary reportedly (widely, I believe) hates the press but will use the toadies to do her bidding and they being fellow travelers on the leftist road to perdition will acquiesce. This is yet another instance of it.
There is no two ways about it, either Hillary was against gay marriage (in which case she was a bigot!!) or was she was too cowardly to support it. Which is it, Hilly?? LOLOL

This is always the case in leftist politics. The press think they are part of the inner circle but there is no inner circle outside the tyrants immediate and trusted few. They are tolerated as long as they are useful. The leftist leaders KNOW that journalist are dumbest of the dumb when it comes to educated people and that they are also the most self centered and least introspective. Useful tools, disposable assets
