http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/video/2008/01/07/VI2008010700846.html The hate of the MSM for Hillary is as fervent as their love for Bush was during the run-up to war.
This video is a very recent example of that.
It exemplifies the absolutely CORRUPT media coverage of HRC that is issuing even from supposed paragons of journalistic objectivity, such as Milbank and the Post. This video has no news value whatsoever. It is a hit piece masquerading as journalism. It was produced specifically to damage Hillary's campaign.
No other candidate of either party is subject to anything like this, and she gets it day after day from direction after direction, with almost no corresponding positive press to offset it.
Watch this piece of shit video by the supposedly liberal-leaning Dana Milbank of the supposedly liberal-leaning Washington (whore) Post, and ask yourself -- even if you are a Hillary hater -- isn't this coverage unfair? Isn't it prejudicial? insulting? purposefully damaging?
Then ask yourself "WHY?"
Why is the same media that universally hounded Bill and universally felliated Bush now universally and gratuitously attacking Hillary?
Gratuitously, because in this video Hillary herself does and says nothing that Milbank could find to be critical of. So he "spun" his report to make it appear she was boring people, turning them off. He dishonestly used selected video shots to do so. He even used a "tired, bored" announcer voice-over.
Think about it: The same media people who hated Bill and loved Bush now hate Hillary.
Doesn't that tell you something?
