TYT: Fox News Caught Reading RNC Memo Word For Word



"Fox & Friends ripped off the Republican National Committee's latest hit job on Hillary Clinton, building an entire segment around the GOP's specious "Where's Hillary?" campaign without disclosing the source.

"Where in the world is Hillary Clinton?" Fox & Friends co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck asked Thursday. "It's been 204 days since her last press conference and 186 days since her last interview," and according to Hasselbeck, "Hillary seems to be in hiding."

In other words, another day in the life at Faux Snooze.

I don't think any of those bozos take a crap without an RNC memo telling them when, where and how much.
