#HillaryMen: NYTimes Lies Again about Hillary: How Many Media Screw-Ups Before She Gets an Apology?
Unbelievably, the New York Times has stepped in it yet again with shoddy Hillary Clinton coverage.
Here’s the lede and the correction… excuse us, the “update.”
Original Item: Hillary Rodham Clinton was directly involved in arranging a new government position for a top aide that allowed the aide to begin working for a private consulting firm while remaining at the State Department, according to documents released on Thursday. The documents, released by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, show that Mrs. Clinton personally signed forms establishing a new title and position for the aide, Huma Abedin, in March 2012.
Update: According to a document obtained by The New York Times, the certification of a new employment position for one of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s senior aides at the State Department was signed by Mrs. Clinton’s then chief of staff, Cheryl D. Mills, who was authorized to sign such documents for Mrs. Clinton.
This new misinformation follows months of scandalous behavior from the media and commentariat in which rank falsehoods have been spread about Hillary Clinton with nary an apology or admission of responsibility.
The most widely reported was the New York Times’s dangerous, wrong, and unethical allegation that Hillary was the subject of a criminal investigation.
Even worse, though largely unacknowledged, is the widespread use of a discredited and dishonest Quinnipiac poll, which #HillaryMen debunked within days of its release....
The corporate media’s coverage of the 2016 election is quickly becoming a national disgrace, turning the riveting prospect of the first woman president into a verbal gang-assault of ugly and epic proportions.
Witness Washington Post reporter Chris Cillizza writing 50 (FIFTY) posts about Hillary’s emails.
Witness Andrea Mitchell of MSNBC, David Muir of ABC and Savannah Guthrie of NBC confronting Hillary and Chelsea Clinton with the deceptive and false Q poll calling Hillary a liar.
Witness the obsessive frat boy sexism of Morning Joe, sneering about Hillary’s outfits and spreading lies about her.
Witness Maureen Dowd conducting a vicious and personal anti-Clinton vendetta with the blessing of the NY Times leadership.
Witness CNN’s Wolf Blitzer hypothesizing with a Republican guest about whether Hillary committed a felony or a misdemeanor without a shred of evidence that she’s even the target of an investigation....
We reiterate our call for an apology by the media, both to Hillary and to the American public....
