WaPo, NYT Reporters Didn’t Want to Cover Clinton-Lynch Tarmac Meeting

August 8, 2017, By Alex Griswold, Washington Free Beacon:

Newly released emails show reporters telling the Obama Department of Justice that they were unenthusiastic about covering the tarmac meeting between former President Bill Clinton and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch during the 2016 campaign.

Clinton and Lynch met privately aboard Lynch’s plane at a Phoenix airport in June 2016. Critics charged that the meeting was inappropriate given that Lynch’s Department of Justice was actively investigating Hillary Clinton for her use of an unsecured private email server during her tenure as secretary of state.

Emails obtained by the American Center for Law and Justice show that reporters at the New York Times and the Washington Post told the Department of Justice’s director of public affairs at the time, Melanie Newman, that while they were writing stories on the controversy, their editors were making them do it.

“My editors are still pretty interested in it and I’m hoping to put it to rest by answering just a few more questions about how the meeting came about-who approached who, how did they realize they were in the same place,” the Post‘s Matt Zapotosky wrote on June 30, 2016, two days after the tarmac meeting.

In another email from the same day, the Times‘ Mark Landler introduced himself and said he had “been pressed into service” to write about the meeting.

Newman also indicated in an email that she had spoken to an ABC producer, who decided not to run with the story. She wrote that the producer said “they aren’t interested, even if FOX runs with it.”

Why would the NYT cover a story that reflects negatively on those they worship and are in league with.

Precisely, the lame stream media giving negative exposure to a democrat would be like a muslim cursing mutgonad, police beat upon him.

AMA is run by self serving profit making frauds like politicians and Media . since daddy saudi/qatar are paying big money they will rather declare chritianity a disease and Islam the cure !

Just like the POPe !

Islamonazi Pope wants christians to bring in more of his
islamonazi friends. And now he even questions christians on their faith http://tinyurl.com/ydy8fkhl

Its like he has sold his soul to Left/Islam agenda and only foolish ignorant christians are foolishly treating him with respect he does not deserve.

Somewhat unrelated, interesting how the AMA works against cures also. Cannabis is verboten in AMA circles because their game is allopathic, look-alike poison to cure ills (which seldom do). The war on drugs, supported by AMA, is a joke.

This whole thing smells like an old fish ,left out in the sun for a couple of days. No, the MSM wants no part of this, nor anything else to do with Truth, scandals beyond imaginations, crimes against our Nation, nope. All they can do is shout either “Russia” or “Racists” both terms now have no meaning, as they apply to everyone, therefore having no definition. Turn them off, tune them out. Verbal garbage channels.

Yesterday should have been the starting time, tired of waiting on the “wheels” to grind, Sessions needs to get the lead out, he may be Southern, but his slowness is becoming a real problem. Get on with it. Indict Hillary, Bill & Loretta, and give the Media something real to talk about, we’re both bored beyond belief with Russia and Racists.

Of course they didn’t because Clinton and Lynch are Democrats! Don’t you know they can do no wrong. It makes me sick how they’d be all over it if it was the Republicans. Anyone with half a brain knows it had nothing to do with grandchildren. I don’t think Lynch has any children. They were discussing Hillary’s emails and she probably told him not to worry because she wouldn’t prosecute. I’d bet my life on it.

Do nit forget lynch told Comey to call CLinton subject a ” matter” not an “investigation.” Plus Comey felt pressured but took no notes. Also no notes if FBI interviewing Hillary. No transcript, PERIOD. Anyone with intelligence knows the fix was in. That is why Comey looked foolish after laying out all of hillarys misdeeds and then saying she did not commit a crime.

TRump did nothing wrong and special proscutornandbfriend of Comey with Democrat and Hillary lovers are looking to skewer Republicans and Trump. Yet they have nothing.

When the FBI questioned Hillary iii she was not under oath. She could lie her fat ass off without consequences. Republicans sit on their ass and let the democrats run rough shod over them. The democrats seem to have a united front while the re-pubs. bicker among themselves. Bad news for Trump he will not get any of his agenda thru.

Yes, like someone said when you put a “D” next to MSM you begin to understand what’s it’s all about.

DEMONCRAPS are also the MSM. You just have to understand this propaganda.

The leftist MSM sees no evil, hears no evil or speaks no evil when it comes to their deep state traitors but is more than willing to make it up for patriots, Christians or any right leaning people.

Documents Show Obama DOJ Was in Panic Mode After Loretta Lynch’s Secret 30-minute Meeting With Bill Clinton Was Exposed !!
Lynch also waited 45 minutes for Bill Clinton’s arrival,… to discuss ‘grand-kids’ and ‘golf’ ?!!

After having spent almost 50 years living and working in a “people republic”, democrat controlled, city/county, it’s readily apparent how these type of things go on. When you’re “in”, and the media likes you, you’d swear you’re living in “Eden”. Once “they” (the media) turn on you, you’re done. It comes as no surprise that the propaganda wing of the dem party would suppress any news that might put their chosen people in a bad light.
