Andrea Mitchell is a disgusting person

As but one example of the larger anti Clinton she regularly spews. this morning she reported that the FBI is now investigating her for perjury before Congress. Reported as if there is a there there. No mention of the fact that such investigations almost never result in charges due to the difficulty in getting evidence. No report that the key issue - the classification of email content - was AGAIN walked back by that fuck Comey to say it was not - as Clinton testified - classified at the time. No mention of this being only the latest in a series of partisan election year ploys by the GOPee.

No.

Mitch reported it as if an indictment were imminent.

Andrea Mitchell is a disgusting person.

Jason Chaffetz made the request last night. Like Benghazi, the GOP is not going to let this go.

Doesn't scream and pound the table, so they think she comes across as credible and a straight shooter. Bull, she's a despicable liar and shill for everything Repugnant.

I'm going to stick with the internet and CNN for breaking news only. If I wanted to watch right wingers trash Democrats all day, I'd watch fox.

...did not mention are telling. They say Andrea Mitchell is an unfair, subjective journalist. In the bigger way we call people "liars" now, she's one of those, too. I've noticed this for some time - even when people here were saying she supported Hillary Clinton. She sometimes acts more pro-Clinton if she's trying to get an interview or show "fairness". There are many pro-Clinton stories to come out of the Comey hearings - like the email mistakes in the three mislabeled (C).

Maybe you should find something better to watch than corporate media.

And, you're the one that started on OP on how bad someone in the media is lying to you.

Every negative thing Trump does, for example, must be balanced with a negative spin on a democratic story. That's what passes for objectivity among a large stupid segment of the population.

The current brand of journalism practiced there is horribly bias. Is this all for ratings, or are they truly making an ideological shift purposefully?

The Orlando massacre, the Dallas cops massacre.

They don't have anymore time to go fishing around for Hillary's 5 year old e-mails.
