Media, It Comes Down to This: Yes, Hillary Gave Classified Data Away
FBI Director James Comey on Thursday testified for hours on why he recommended no charges against Hillary Clinton.

Helpful ABC: ‘Clinton Wants Nothing More Than to Change the Subject’
The journalists at Good Morning America on Thursday were eager to help Hillary Clinton turn the page and move on from the damaging e-mail server scandal.

Hollywood Actress Points Out the Positives of Motherhood
Now here’s something you certainly won’t hear or see plastered all over magazines or hot Hollywood gossip websites: A Hollywood actress who wants to have a big family and focus on that family.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign took a trip to Atlantic City, New Jersey Wednesday to slam Donald Trump for shutting down two of his casinos there.

Lefty Pundit: ‘Ridiculous’ to Wonder Why Hillary Wasn’t Charged
It was “friggin’ obvious” that Hillary Clinton wasn’t going to face criminal charges related to her private email server, and the media dropped the ball by not making that clear, argued Talking Points Memo editor and publisher Marshall in a Tuesday post. “Given what we knew, criminal charges weren't even in the realm of reasonable consideration,” he stated. “You could find this out with just a…

AP: Thanks Only to U.S., UK's 'Leave' Vote Won't Lead to Its 'Demise'
Saturday at the Associated Press, aka the Admininstration's Press, Josh Lederman ran interference for President Barack Obama's conveniently timed Brexit vote flip-flop.

Randi Rhodes Return to Airwaves, Just in Time to Slam Hillary Again
Talk about timing -- a liberal radio host arguably best known for once labeling Hillary Clinton "a big f***ing whore" relaunches her show on the same day Clinton dodges prosecution after putting national security at risk through the use of private, vulnerable email servers while secretary of state.
