The article above talks about the Clinton campaign's attempt to influence reporters by feeding them information. Now it seems like you think Clinton was giving these people marching orders.
- a_tractor 8y ago>Now it seems like you think Clinton was giving these people marching orders. That is sort of a stretch based on what OP actually said. Anyway, I think it is better to frame it as these journalists who see positions in media as powerful outlets for leftist activism, via narrative control and the ability to influence the public on a mass scale. In some cases, we do have evidence of collusion between Clinton's campaign and specific journalists (initiated by both sides), but in many others it is just clear that this bias and activist intent is completely voluntary and unrestrained. That distinction still doesn't mean that their work is anything less than propaganda.
