Hillary Clinton: "There Were A Lot Of Times When I Appreciated" Fox News During Primary
Today's Huffington Post headline, today's Huffington Post, verbatim:
Hillary Clinton appeared on "Fox & Friends" Tuesday morning, where she discussed sexism with co-host Gretchen Carlson and took the opportunity to say that she "appreciated" Fox News' balanced coverage of her campaign.

"I think it's part of our culture," Clinton said of sexism. "We have certainly gone way beyond where any society has ever been in expanding opportunities for women, giving women every chance to fulfill their god-given potential, but there are remnants and we still see it and we have to fight against it and we have to stand up against it and we need people in my position and your position to call others on it when it happens," she told Carlson.

"We did call them on it at Fox, in fact I think you went on record saying that Fox was the most fair and balanced place during the time when you were running," Carlson said.

"There were a lot of times when I appreciated the commentators and reporters on Fox who did step up and make that clear," Clinton responded.

7. hey, I beat you by two minutes
Apple shining aside, Clinton chose to appear on "Fox & Friends" this morning; it isn't reliving ancient history (although it might be for the parties involved, judging from the tenor of the interview), this is what happened today on the political stage. Frankly the "we have an election to win" comment applies to >99% of internet threads, any time spent preaching to the choir is time not phone-banking or data-entering, but man can't live on bread alone.

8. Oh yeah, Huff........
another LW blog who trashed Hillary and still continues do so. Ditto for KOS.

There's nothing incorrect in what she stated. FOX did treat her better than the other MSM outlets. The worst culprit being MSNBC.

:shrug:
