Hillary just gave a brief Press Conference, and took a few questions. I was watching CNN

and when they returned to the CNN hosts, the first remarks to come out of Erin Burnett's mouth was that "Hillary looked angry"

Then they continued to allow their guests to spew their conspiracy theories.

have characterized "shrill, defensive, angry, never smiles". While I am sure is angry, they are not reporting that as a positive

But if people can empathize they could understand the frustration and anger.

It's a stretch but it's a possibility

He said that means she must know there's nothing there -- I like his take.

it's in trump and the republicans best interest for there NOT to be full disclosure before the election because when it turns out to be nothing important it loses any impact it would potentially have on the outcome.

She did have the look of a mother who has been told -- again -- that her toddler is acting like a toddler. If she is annoyed, it's certainly understandable.

All this as opposed to Trump, who was spiking the ball even though he's still stuck in the endzone at the wrong end of the field.

CNBC has a whole nest of right wingers. They actually were all part of when Roger Ailes was associated with CNBC, so you just confirmed something foor me

Thanks Moon

Of course not everyone at CNBC shares those points of view, but at least for me they motivated me to watch Bloomberg instead

I remember when Morning Jerk would talk with her every day about stock market predictions. He always called her "Erin Burnett, international super star."

But my hubby told me that Hillary was giving a Press Conference....and I only caught the Erin Burnett comments which must have been immediately afterwards, and missed the actual press conference!
