I'm still on board with her, and this story is stupid.

But anyway, I guess this proves the point that the reason Hillary lost is just that she was a shitty awful neoliberal candidate, and it wasn't the medias fault for reporting on her emails because it was a big story (and it was a big story because they were reporting on it, see) and the media totally would never do the same thing to a progressive that cares about people and has no clouds of corruption* hanging over them.

This is why we must push back on any criticism of the media's coverage of 2016, because that would undermine the point that Hillary was uniquely awful. When the media totally starts pulling the same shit with other minor scandals of little relevance to governing on candidates that True Progressives™ do like, davidm will probably just conclude that it's the DNC trying to sink them.

*Like that time Clinton Foundation people asked her for diplomatic passports, and then didn't get them.
