There's some new emails from the Clinton campaign that shows that Hillary had a long list of favorite journalists used to get her stories out. The one mentioned as a clear favorite is Maggie Haberman of Politico and now of the New York Times. Even worse, there's also news from the same source that the Clinton campaign secretly paid some of the pundits who appear on cable news networks. Imagine Hillary having a paid spokesman on CNN or MSNBC who pretended to be an independent pundit.
The one thing that is worth noting is this: there are favored reporters/pundits on every network except Fox News. MSNBC has legions of people on the list. CNN also had a great many. Even CBS, ABC and NBC had a healthy membership in the group. In recent years, polls show that Americans consider Fox News the most reliable source for fair and full information; the margin for Fox over its nearest competitor has been roughly three to one. People understand when they are being fed a line of BS.
