The media and late night comedians here in the U.S. are mostly Democrat Party voters. So they kind of don't give coverage of her any "legs".
They prefer to make fun of the lunatics on the Republican Party side and keep the story going and going and going.
It's kind of a subtle way that they influence all of us.
It's like when MSNBC shows a picture of Pres. Bush...he's always got a "mean" look and a frown on his face. They pick out the picture that makes him look bad.
And then when they show a pic of Obama...they always pick out a picture of him that makes him look downright majestic! LOL!
And then Fox News does the exact opposite!
The fucking press in this country is a joke.
At least they USED to question authority. It didn't matter which party was in power, the press was all over their asses.
Not now.
When Bush was President, Fox News fawned all over him. And to be honest...CNN and all the rest voluntarily put their reporters in with the troops and did nothing but "Pro-USA" stories.
Not at all like the great job the press did in reporting the Vietnam War.
Nope, the press here in the U.S. now just takes whatever the White House hands them and reports it as "facts".
And whenever they step too far out of line with it...they are "slapped" by not getting interviews and face time with the President.
It's a sad state of affairs.
