The media fabricated how many fake Clinton scandals in the past year? And if it wasn’t for the Washington Post, would anyone even know about the Trump foundation? So given the opportunity to ask Hillary Clinton, guess what this reporter asked?
That’s right. She validated a right-wing rumor by treating it as if it should be taken seriously:
A Tampa, Fla., ABC News reporter asked Hillary Clinton whether she would be willing to take neurological exams in the wake of recent health concerns.
Clinton laughed off the question by ABC Action News reporter Sarina Fazan, who said some doctors had called on her to take “neuro-cognitive” tests.
“I am very sorry I got pneumonia,” Clinton said. “I am very glad that antibiotics took care of it and that’s behind us now. I have met the standard that everybody running for president has met in terms of releasing information about my health.”
The Democratic presidential nominee added that she saw no need for such tests.
“The information is very clear, and the information, as I said, meets the standards that every other person running for president has ever had to meet.”
This is getting infuriating. My only guess is that media models are incredibly dumb, illiterate, and unimaginative people.
Ron – I hate to say this and sound ageist but I think one reason it is so frustrating for people like you and me is these news readers are selected more for their youth and beauty than their experience and brains.
I am just assuming from your posts you are not a millennial – if you are wow! I’m impressed!
