Hillary Clinton was in Washington for the farewell ceremony for Harry Reid. The moment was truly surreal. Hillary used the occasion to lament the damage that fake news did to her losing campaign for president.
Think about that for a moment. "Fake News" is the big bugaboo for the mainstream media and the left at the moment. Fake news is being denounced every day and now Hillary is joining the chorus. Remember, though, that Hillary put out the news that the Benghazi attack was the result of a youtube video. That was fake news coming from a high government official rather than from some unknown website. Hillary is also the one who gave America the news that there was no classified information sent or received in her email. That too was fake news designed by Hillary to cover up what she had actually done. Join that with the news put out by Hillary that she turned over all of her work emails to the State Department (fake news) and that she set up her email system so she could use just one device (more fake news). Then there's the news she put out that all the donors to the Clinton foundation were made public (fake news again). The reality is that Hillary Clinton probably did lose because of fake news, but it was the fake news that she put out herself and which was discovered by the American people.
