For the last two weeks, the mainstream media has barely covered the daily email dumps by Wikileaks. We got weeks of coverage of a decade old tape of Trump and the aftermath of that. When Wikileaks started publishing the email of Hillary's campaign manager John Podesta, however, most stories were about how the Russians were involved. In other words, the media followed the Clinton Campaign line that the content of the email was not the story, but rather the possibility of Russian involvement in getting that email was what counted. Today, for the first time, that has seemed to shift. The New York Times top headline is about the content of the Wikileaks emails. CBS News led its morning report with a story on the content. Other media is following suits. The reason is that the content of the emails has now gotten to the point where even the media cannot ignore it.
We learned today that the fund raisers for the Clinton Foundation not only sought money for charity, but they also sought big bucks for Bill and Hillary Clinton. According to internal email, Bill Clinton was paid salaries or other payments PERSONALLY of over sixty million bucks that came from Clinton Foundation contributors. This was disclosed by Doug Band, a long time Clinton insider, who complained when he was called on the carpet for soliciting business at a foundation function. He pointed out that his conflict of interest was nothing compared to that of the Clintons themselves who got over sixty million dollars personally from those who gave to the foundation.
When you add this to the emails from prior days that showed that the State Department under Hillary gave clear preference to those who contributed to the Foundation, you have a story of total corruption. After all, those getting preferences from the Clinton State Department not only gave to a supposed charity, they also steered sixty million bucks to the Clintons themselves.
That's corruption on a scale never seen before in the USA at this high a level of government.
No wonder the media feels compelled to cover the story.
