FOX shifts Clinton scandal focus

[ghostsinthemachine]

To donations made to the Clinton Foundation.

Just watched a bunch of FOX (not really the) News and this is the play now.now that the email scandal is off the game plan. Comingling of funds " the real smoking gun" etc.....
Be ready for it.

And it is on at my gym so I gotta watch.

1. Well, for me it's the appearance of quid pro quo.

Donations followed by arms deal approvals from the State Dept.

2. This story's been hidden 3 times now.

Apparently, DU is not at all interested in being ready for it.

5. I made sure to make a silly alert so that someone else couldn't make up a BS reason to hide it

3. I guess some Fox (not really the) News Producer ...

is following DU.

This has been discussed on DU for awhile now.

There's many more. And it will continue until November and beyond if she wins the primary

[ghostsinthemachine]

7. Yep (nt)

[6000eliot]

8. And for the eight years she is president.

What else is new? They tried it for eight years when her husband was president. IT WON'T WORK.

10. "Though there is no evidence of wrongdoing"...

Pulled from one of those linked stories: "...Though there is no evidence of wrongdoing, ties between the Clinton Foundation, major corporations and foreign governments have come under increasing scrutiny as Hillary Clinton begins her presidential campaign..."

In other words, let's fling an inexhaustible ton of bullshit in every direction over a long haul, and the echo effect alone will produce Clinton fatigue and vague distrust.

"Increasing scrutiny" -- yeah, by Faux.

12. I don't like the word hate but I HATE FOX "News"

because they spew BS and hate 24/7.

But if it were the Bush Foundation and their donors, like Halliburton, were getting arms deals, etc we'd be all over that (and we were with Halliburton during the Bush/Cheney years).

I've looked at that Foundation donor stuff some - did some of my own research and I'd quickly concur that I saw no "proof" but to be honest and forthright, it smelled pretty bad. So if she takes some hits on that, some of it is their responsibility because the Clintons were in a position to know what the perceptions were going to be and went ahead with it.

9. FOX will promote Hillary scandals for as long as she's in politics...

...if Bernie wins, they will have find Bernie scandals. How is this news?

[grossproffit]

11. Fox has been obsessed with the Clinton's since their inception.
