Halperin/Heilemann: MSM Has 'Anti-Clinton Bias,' Primed to Dig Into Hillary Dealings
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/17/2014 6:14:25 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Mark Halperin claims that the MSM has an "anti-Clinton bias." That might send the blood pressure of a Newsbusters reader rocketing. But before downing a dieuretic, consider what else he and John Heilemann had to say on their Bloomberg TV show today.

Halperin and Heilemann were riffing off the New York Times report that Hillary's State Department permitted a rich Ecuadorean woman to enter the US after her family donated big bucks to Dem campaigns. According to the Bloomberg duo, there are 20-30 such stories out there, and the media will be eager to research them, with Hillary's scalp being a prime prize for an enterprising investigative reporter.

Halperin/Heilemann say there are lots of stories out there about Hillary’s financial dealings and that media will go after them. Ping to Today show list.

Apparently, the MSM wants someone further to the left from the Democrats.

So, the propaganda machine is primed to go after Hillary, but it was all hands off Obama? Why?

Yah, from the death of Vince Foster to the Benghazi
scandal, poor Hillary has sure taken her share of
MSM hits. They sure don’t treat her like they do
lucky Sarah Palin.

You know as well as I do. The media was, and is, determined that the "first black President cannot fail!" ... Even when he does.

Obama was historic after all.

If they think there is an anti-Clinton bias now just wait until Obama gives her the heave-ho.

Because the purpose of Obama has been to block Hillary.

Think it through - the political agendas are identical. The only difference is between an indifferent puppet vs. a psychotic maniac at the top.

Which means that as bad as Obama is and has been, if Hillary had been elected we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

In fact, no one would be having any conversations, ever again.

All I want to know is who’s currently ahead in the rape accusation race Bill Clinton or Bill Cosby?

Who is he kidding. The MSM can’t get enough of the Clintons or else they would report on Bill’s history as a serial rapist.

It’s just a matter of time before reporters flood their papers with how Chelsea Clinton is an inevitable candidate.

No one cares about some visa she helped get through... we should be caring about dirty/failed policy decisions with respect to Honduras, Egypt, Libya, Russia, Syria, Iran, and who knows where else.

But, the MSM wants to look like they're asking the "tough" questions while they work for her election.

The Obamas still battle racists while Hillary is persecuted by the MSM?
Those poor dems can’t catch a break, according to their press agents.
