CNN Covers for Hillary's Coughing Fit: 'Choked Up'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/16/2016 7:27:26 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

How can we put this politely? "Choked up," our hind quarters . . . In the most blatant case of the MSM covering for a potential health issue surrounding a liberal candidate that this NewsBuster can remember, CNN's Brianna Keilar has described a Hillary Clinton coughing fit as a case of Clinton getting "choked up."

Readers are urged to watch this clip from Hillary's speech in Harlem today. This is someone experiencing a serious, extended, coughing fit. Yet on Don Lemon's CNN show this evening, Keilar described this as Hillary being "choked up so badly that she struggled to speak for a few minutes and they actually cheered to fill the time." Rightttt.

Hillary has a potentially serious health problem. CNN tries to cover for her tonight, calling Clinton’s extended coughing fit a case of her getting “choked up.” Right.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

cnn’s license to broadcast should be called into question.

Nonsense. Never let the truth get in the way of the agenda.

My dog barked back at Hillary when it heard and saw Hillary barking on TV. Wonder what Hillary barked?

She didn't have a pillow over her head or anything, did she?

It’s not the coughin’ that carries you off, it’s the coffin they carry you off in.

I do not like Hillary. But there is a very bad cold with cough going around that leads to pneumonia very quickly. Even on IV antibiotics with pneumonia caused by this cold virus (not a flu) from hell, there can be coughing jags for weeks. I have had this for 3.5 weeks. (I wasn’t the one who got pneumonia from it, that was my poor mom). Normal people can start a coughing jag and stop talking. But if you are supposed to be giving a speech... You have to keep trying.

She’s a wicked, evil person. But this could be the cold from hell that attacked seven people in my family and acquaintance.

I am not convinced she has anything more serious than drainage that lingers after a cold. Just think of all the people she had been around in the last month. How many of them were sick, lots and lots.

It reminds me of that famous old song.........” I thought my nose was running money................. But it’s snot”.........

Probably her consistent lieing created a malignant tumor in her throat.

Hell, she's been "choking" (sports metaphor) ever since the emails and since Bernie Sanders gained traction.

If she's going to bow out for health reasons, will she endorse Bernie, Biden, or Bloomberg?

Hillary is just tired. She needs some R&R.

Like at some dude ranch in Texas.

Could be. But whatever the cause, it was a coughing fit, and the CNN correspondent lied to cover for her by saying Hillary got “choked up.”
