The Clintons Need to Confront the Media As A Whole Already [View all]

In light of the recent NYT scandal with regard to the BS "criminal investigation" into Hillary, the Clintons really need to confront the media already on the macro picture instead of treating their lies like its a given and responding to the lies singularly. I know Hillary reacted today but the general attitude over the last near-generation of the media towards them has got to be pointed out. What is the rational reason the Clintons get such horrible media treatment? In 2008, Obama set up a website dedicated to fighting the attacks on him. The Clintons could have used that years ago. Remember "Fight the Smear?" I also think Hillary ought to give a speech detailing the media attacks over the years. This hatred has got to end. Its not good for our democracy, and its not good for our country.
