[hill2016]

they are not doing their job.

recall how few open press conferences Bush gave?

what do you think of a President who tells the media: only ask me questions on issues I think are important?

3. It's the Fourth Estate.

And they haven't been doing their jobs for a long time. Bernie is one of the few politicians calling them out on it.

5. It is like one is stopped by a cop and you go

"Officer, don't ask me how fast I was driving, today I'm only answering questions about how my day went."

6. So asking Hillary about influence peddling as SOS is okay when she's talking about poll #'s?

7. actually yes

it is the press' job to ask questions. My problems with the press have been in what they have written being inaccurate, and in asking the same email questions repeatedly not in asking questions Hillary would prefer not to answer.

8. As a Hillary supporter you make this statement?

The fourth estate has failed to ask Clinton hard questions about the speaking fees, the Clinton Foundation, Libya etc.

Of course, they are too busy trying to sell her to the American Public.

9. It is obvious that you are merely trying to catapult the propaganda.

just not doing it very well…

Team Meeting!

10. Bernie is special!

Everybody knows that.

11. They don't want actual issues discussed
