Right-Wing Media Scandalize Deceptively Edited Anti-Clinton Clip
America Rising: "Watch What Happens" When A Clinton Supporter Asks For An Autograph. In a June 1 tweet, Republican-aligned opposition research firm America Rising PAC posted a 7-second Vine video showing Hillary Clinton speaking to a supporter outside a campaign event. When the unidentified woman asks Clinton to sign something, Clinton suggests that the women "go to the end of the line"
Guy Benson, Fox News contributor and political editor of the conservative blog Townhall, explained after personally examining "the full 17-minute video" recorded by a campaign tracker with the GOP-aligned firm America Rising, that there was "nothing out of the ordinary" about the scandalized interaction. According to his review, "the added context casts the awkward exchange in a far less damaging light" and "the short sound-byte contained in the tweet above isn't representative of her attitude or actions"
When I wondered about context on Twitter, one of the organization's representatives was kind enough to email me the full 17-minute video, which I've since examined. As I suspected, the added context casts the awkward exchange in a far less damaging light. Hillary emerges from the building and slowly makes her way down the line of well-wishers, taking photographs, shaking hands, and making small talk. She's not a natural politician, and many of the interactions feel stilted and perfunctory, but it's nothing out of the ordinary. When people start asking her to sign items (books, photographs, even baseballs), Hillary seems to make a snap decision that she'll accommodate their requests, but not until she's made it all the way through the crowd. Hence, the "end of the line" request.
Sure enough, the last four-or-so minutes of the complete video features Hillary Clinton dutifully autographing paraphernalia for all comers, asking questions like, "want me to make it out to you?" Mrs. Clinton appears ill at ease and not especially eager to stick around throughout much of this extended rope line-style interaction, but the short sound-byte contained in the tweet above isn't representative of her attitude or actions. She's slightly uncomfortable and less than enthusiastic; she isn't hostile or rude.

it was just a bunch of nothing made out to be something.
The text was all about how "rude and condescending" she was, but it was nothing of the sort 
F them. Nov 2016 Hillary will be our gracious first woman President & she can flip the middle finger to all those MSM paid hacks & liars that have hounded her for 25 yrs.
They deserve nothing more than that from her.
