Hillary Clinton plans to improve her relationship with the press for 2016, and her choice of Tom Nides as a top campaign official could be a good start. He is married to a top executive of CNN.

Politico’s Mike Allen reports that Tom Nides, who was formerly Hillary Clinton’s deputy secretary of state, will be leaving his vice chairman position at Morgan Stanley for a top role in Clinton’s 2016 campaign.

Unmentioned by Allen is that Nides is the longtime husband of Virginia Moseley, who has been the vice president and deputy Washington bureau chief for CNN since 2012.

Each new campaign season has the standards of integrity,objectivity continue spiraling downward. Not so long ago, this sort of political infidelity would never even be considered. There always was at least some degree of feigned impartiality to illustrate no preference emanating from the MSM regarding candidates and their political affiliation but even that has now been breached where a candidate employs a very close associate of the MSM and no one bats an eye. CNN sees no legal obstacle to the arrangement, probably jumped at he idea seeing it as means for them to get the inside scoop on Hillary's campaign, the matter of appearance of impropriety didn't even come into question.

While they do realize this latest arrangement between the allegedly objective news organ and the candidate they are obligated to report on fairly and without preference, stinks from the head, a deal in which they themselves realize is sinister, to say the least,they've employed the Administration's strategy on responding to surreal political phenomena by using the White House's approach to say anything, without the need of making the slightest sense as political cover in concocting a very honorable sounding objective that carries the air of legitimacy and validation to an arrangement that has no place i n politics.

The utter brazen chutzpah to play the relationship between CNN and Hillary as a laudable effort to "improve relations with the press … to help her get off on a better foot with the journalists who will help shape her image”.

"This is a perfect relationship for the Clinton campaign, which according to Allen, is taking shape with a “determination to improve relations with the press … to help her get off on a better foot with the journalists to help shape her image."

And why is it the press' responsibility for that, when it should be the other way around?

This way the MSM will not report on her husband’s
continuing rape of minor girls.

But this will not in any way influence the objectivity of CNN, because They Are Professional Journalists.

[lbryce]

Yes, absolutely. Our integrity, impartiality, objectivity will in no way be effected by this arrangement, as we do not at all subscribe to these long ago abandoned archaic concepts of news reporting.

[SharpRightTurn]

From “deputy secretary of state” to “vice chairman position at Morgan Stanley” to “a top role in Clinton’s 2016 campaign.”

This guy has certainly been through the insider revolving door. Where will he end up next, running the World Bank? Or could he have a date with Fort Marcy Park before that?

[edpc]

Well....it is the Clinton News Network.

[lbryce]

Right on the money.

"improve relations with the press … to help her get off on a better foot with the journalists who will help shape her image”.

Good luck polishing that turd.

As I've said before, in this country, the media is the primary enemy. They bamboozle the low information voter and sweep rapists like BJ Clinton and Communists like Bath House under the rug.

Every time CNN tries another smear, this incestuous relationship between the Democrats and CNN needs to be pointed out.
There are other examples of the revolving door between the media and the Democrats.
There will be more examples soon.

will be leaving his vice chairman position at Morgan Stanley for a top role in Clinton’s 2016 campaign.

Yes, leave behind the investment banker's chump-change for the big money.

That's the ticket.
