Clinton campaign colludes with media prior to official announcement

a reply to: Stormdancer777

What's your point? Isn't that what all the trump and wikileaks supporters have been saying should be done with the data dumps? So why is it any different when it makes trump look bad?

An aside I'm not saying that you personally said this, but many trump supporters have in recent threads about wikileaks and the October surprise...

Who writes what the talking heads say on air? Who tells the ones who write it what to say?

Lady Lynn de Rothschild for one:

I’m passing along a document that came from one of our friends, written for and sent directly to Amy Chozick for this NYT piece she’s working on.

/podesta-emails/emailid/1542

Pay attention to the attachment.

And here is some further commentary on the idea of a Rothschild writing about economic disparity:

Agreed.
And a Rothschild is not exactly our best voice on income inequality.
Mandy Grunwald

....

Well – We need someone to get our “friends” on the phone and tell them this doesn’t help;

/podesta-emails/emailid/1106

But when we define our goals, we have to be clear that we are concerned with helping people who are getting crushed by rising costs and stagnant incomes, not that we're worried about offending high income groups (our donors).

Funny how that name keeps popping up, isn't it?

I don't see that particularly, I think you miss the point of the e-mail as regards, "friends" in the inverted commas.

The thing is Lynn de Rothschild is known to have transferred her alliegiance to the Republican party at a certain stage, [fill in this space] yourself if you don't know in the recent past, however it seems that she is now back in the Democratic donor camp. I think it's fair to say that the inverted commas could easily be seen as a sarcasm.

In this case the "friend," in question is Lynn Rothschild herself.

"I’m passing along a document that came from one of our friends" is referring to the document Lynn wrote, thus Lynn is the friend.

And later on when, "We need someone to get our “friends” on the phone and tell them this doesn’t help," is said, they are again referring to Lynn Rothschild in a frustrated manner due to the fact that she is out of touch and does not realize that her being her would defeat the purpose of any writing she might do on income equality where it pertains to everyday Americans.

I agree that it is sarcasm, but the whole "friend," term definitely refers to Lynn.

And Trump "colludes" with Fox News and Conservative Talk Radio show hosts.

The only thing you are mad about, is that Hillary has more of the media than Trump does...because they both are doing the exact same thing.
