A little late to the party, but I don't think anyone has posted about it so far.

Now we find out Hilary saw the Town Hall questions before the Town Hall event. She got to see the questions before the event actually took place whereas her opponents didn't. The extent to which the media is working for Hilary is shocking. Donna Brazile used to work for CNN and she's been using that to her advantage.

Can you post a link to the evidence for that?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Just to add, I don't know why Jordan of TYT Politics (in the above video) gets so much hate from Hilary Fanpeople. Apparently Hillary Bots don't like actual journalism. They don't like that not all of the media is an echo chamber. Apparently reporting the news helps to get Donald Trump elected (wtf).

To be clear, this was a town hall event in Orangeburg, South Carolina, and not the Town Hall Debate between the two candidates.

So a presidential candidate may have known a question to a local event not involving the other candidate. Color me outraged.

Nope.

Quote:Tad Devine, who served as the top strategist on Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign, came the defense of Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile Tuesday after hacked emails showed what some read as improper coordination between Brazile and the Clinton campaign.
Brazile said the question in the email was for a normal upcoming appearance on CNN and said she would regularly contact both campaigns for guidance.
"Yes that is absolutely true," Devine said of Brazile's account of the matter in an email to NBC News. "She would get in touch all the time for guidance, so I can verify her recollection on this issue."

Regardless, it does not look good. I never trusted CNN anyway. I'm sure we'll find out more in the coming days.

It doesn't look bad. It only looks bad when Cenk Uygur tries to make it look like it was the presidential debate rather than a campaign event in SC. This is a non issue, only meant to distract.

I believe the technicalities were discussed in the videos I cited the framing of the question was the same.

Cenk has put out a lot of anti Trump videos so he's hardly helping Trump. He gets attacked from all sides for being biased.
