The msnbc host just nodded yes and agreed with Rudy when he said

paraphrasing---Don't you find it shameful when Donna Brazile gives the questions to Hillary for the debate and rigs the election.

I was aghast-then Rudy smiled and the segment ended.

2. She is letting Rudy make all kinds of allegations about Hillary being corrupt.

And she keeps trying (not very hard, IMO) to steer back to Megan Kelly and Newt. He made some very serious charges about the Sec. of State selling uranium to Russian, bribery, etc. She barely uttered, "but that has not been proven."

I used to like her, but now I think she isn't very effective. Rudy is too wily for her. She let him rant on and on, all kinds of allegations.

Fact Check Fake News

Preparation H
A fake news story reported that Hillary Clinton was given her questions for the first presidential debate of 2016 a week in advance.

Claim: Hillary Clinton received her questions for the first presidential debate of 2016 a week in advance.
FALSE

Origin:On 26 September 2016, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump squared off at Hofstra University for the first head-to-head presidential debate of the campaign. One of the talking points that emerged from the debate was the preparedness of each candidate, exemplified by this line from Clinton in response to a remark by Trump about her recent absence from the campaign trail:


“I think Donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate. And yes I did. And you know what else I prepared for? I prepared to be president. And I think that’s a good thing.”


While legitimate news outlets such as Washington Post penned articles explaining how Clinton meticulously prepared for the debate, the non-legitimate Baltimore Gazette published a fake news article offering a different explanation — Clinton had received her debate questions a week in advance:...........................







....The above-quoted story is a piece of fake news from a relatively new fake news site. While the Baltimore Gazette does not carry a disclaimer labeling its content as fiction, several factors give away that it is not the outlet of a legitimate newspaper or news organization, but rather a hastily thrown-together hoax site. Everything about Baltimore Gazette site is generic: the social media buttons don't link to any online presence, several of the news topic sections are merely placeholders with no content, and the physical address provided in the "contact us" section is a non-existent one that would place the newspaper in the middle of the Lockwood Plaza shopping mall.

The site also already has a track record of publishing demonstrably fake news stories.

after another. She made one lame objection, but let Rudy counter w/ more BS. Since they cut Reid & Shultz from afternoons, I generally ignore MSNBC until 8pm.
