As Hillary Clinton’s Lead Grows To 12 Points, Media Creates Clinton Foundation Scandal

The predictable response from the media to Hillary Clinton's growing lead over Donald Trump is to drum up a Clinton scandal in the hopes that the polls will get closer.

The fact that Clinton’s lead continues to increase over Trump no matter how much time the press spends on her emails was bad news for a corporate media establishment for whom a blowout presidential election will result in the loss of billions of dollars in potential profits.

If the corporate owned press was going to use their influence to help narrow Trump’s deficit in the polls, they needed a new strategy, so they followed Donald Trump’s lead and began to play up The Clinton Foundation.

The AP ran a screaming headline about many Clinton Foundation donors meeting with her while she was Secretary of State. Republicans and many in the media immediately screamed pay for play, but there is no evidence that the donors who met with Clinton received anything, so no, it wasn’t pay for play.

The motivation for these stories isn’t truth or even political bias. It’s money. The election can’t be allowed to take its natural course because a big Hillary Clinton win will result in lower profits for some media giants.
