On Saturday, the Twitter account of CNN Politics posted a cartoon portrayal of Hillary Clinton to promote an article about the Democratic presidential candidate's visit to her campaign headquarters in Brooklyn, New York. The caricature depicted Mrs. Clinton in "6 things Hillary could use in Brooklyn," and placed a cup of "artisinal (sic) coffee" in her hand, a floral print suit with matching "skinny pants," silver Birkenstocks, iPhone earbuds, and Warby Parker eyeglass frames.
The article by Dan Merica noted that Clinton "visited her campaign headquarters in Brooklyn on Thursday, her first visit to the borough since announcing her presidential campaign." After setting aside an hour with the staffers there, the former New York senator "visited three local Brooklyn establishments," including the "Brooklyn Women's Exchange, a cooperative that sells handmade home goods and children's clothing made by women;" Area Kids, a "neighborhood toy store on Montague Street;" and "Monty Q's, a pizza and salad joint that some campaign staffers frequent," where Mrs. Clinton had lunch.
Merica pointed out that the former secretary of state " ordered a salad...and -- unlike her earlier campaign visit to Chipotle -- the candidate did get noticed and talked to patrons at all three locations." The CNN correspondent continued that "Clinton's Brooklyn adventure was filmed by campaign staff, likely for future use in ads an online videos."
The CNN.com article included a slideshow that spotlighted 16 top members of Hillary Clinton's campaign team – including John Podesta, Robby Mook (who once interned for embattled ABC anchor and former Clinton staffer George Stephanopoulos), Huma Abedin, and Jennifer Palmieri.
