MSM (as represented by AP) decides to promote Clinton

[featherman]

today in an effort to tighten up the "horse race". I don't know how else to interpret this "report" on tonight's debate.

1. Say what - is reality now biased toward Clinton? - AP reported exactly what we saw in the debate

I do not understand the clain of AP bias - indeed the AP has never expressed a good word for Hillary - and did not in their report - they just reported one of the more interesting moments.

2. Not bias...just whoever is down they build up and whoever is up they

tear down... who the candidate is, doesn't matter. Just my opinion but a pretty clear pattern, ie, relentlessly attacking HRC when she was the "frontrunner". The horse race is all that matters... it sells

3. How is this "promoting" Clinton? nt

Why is "report" in quotes?

4. If what was reported in the first few paragraphs of the story

was the central story of the debate in your opinion, then I guess it is a good report. Not being snarky. I just saw and heard a lot more positive and interesting stuff than that... real stuff regarding real problems that was shunted aside in favor of "gotcha" reporting. (I confess I do favor quotation marks a lot in my postings... as you can see) :)
