42. and by not correcting the untruths
Tue Mar 1, 2016, 05:42 AM
Mar 2016

when there is data to back it up - just letting the information hang out there. rachel had done this several times. and, she outright lied when releasing a ridiculous poll favoring hillary for super tuesday so heavily it was outrageously skewed - but, hey, rachel literally laughed that it was the only poll she could get because her phone wasn't working for some reason. she was reporting from south carolina.

i just never figured her for loosing her professional journalist integrity and high standards for objectivity. this is what is so disappointing about her giddy behavior for hillary.
