Is the media in the tank for Hilary?

Camille Paglia's thought provoking article raises some interesting questions and puts forth some ideas on how higher education should work.

Lame stream media is so lame

The so called mainstream media in this country is so lame that it really is the lame stream media.  John Lewis can stand-up in front of cameras and tell a lie and no one in the media bats an eye.  The congressman claimed that he never met Bernie Sanders during the civil rights movement of the 1960s but that he met Hilary and Bill Clinton during that time, yet in a biography of Bill Clinton Lewis is quoted as saying he first met Bill Clinton in 1991.  Lewis implied that Hilary and Bill were participants in the Selma Alabama march and other civil rights protests of the 60's but it is unlikely that either participated, Bill would have been 19 in 1965 and Hilary 18.  In another media lapse it is widely reported that South Carolina is heavily populated by African Americans when in fact, according to the U.S. Census Department they make up 27.8% of the population.  It maybe true that African Americans make up a large portion of the Democrat Party in South Carolina and that they will have a significant impact on that State's Democrat primary but they are far from a majority of the population.

It's Starting to Unravel in Iowa

The ubiquitous reports of irregularities in the Iowa Democrat caucuses have forced officials in that state look closely into how Hilary Clinton came out on top in the delegate count.  Already, it is being reported that one delegate was arbitrarily taken form Sanders and given to Clinton, other such inexplicable actions are sure to follow, such as what exactly lead to the use of coin tosses in at least six other cases to determine who would be awarded delegates.  The Iowa primary was so close on the Democrat side that a swing of just a few delegates could alter the outcome and Hilary's a "win is a win" gloating could come back to haunt her, stay tuned.

Clinton Scandals will never end.

"What happened at the Democratic caucuses Monday night was a debacle, period."  This from the Des Moines Register, hardly a right wing publication.  It is pretty clear from all reports that many "irregularities" occurred Monday night in Iowa, but what is really galling is the pronouncement from Clinton supporters that a win is a win, and that sums up what Bill and Hilary Clinton are all about, "winning is not everything, its the only thing" no matter who or what gets in the way, and this is what die hard Democrats want to foist on the American people.
