Hillary’s Clinton’s presidential campaign released a retro-mood, light-hearted 89-second Web ad that hits the very real obsession that Republicans have with defunding Planned Parenthood compared to addressing the very real issues that concern Americans.

The 89-second Web ad flashes a series of critical issues on the screen — paid family leave, making college and child care more affordable, equal pay for women and protecting voting rights — followed by breaks of silence Wednesday when candidates weren’t speaking. In reality, none of these issues were addressed in the three-hour debate, which focused on the moderators trying to pit the candidates against each other. Adding chirping crickets to the audio/visual mix is the perfect touch.

Clinton Criticizes GOP Debate

Clinton: Republican debaters ‘really don’t have much else to say’ CNN

Speaking in an exclusive interview Thursday with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on “The Situation Room,” Clinton criticized Wednesday night’s Republican debate to “the usual back-and-forth — political attacks, the kinds of things you say when you’re on a debate stage and you really don’t have much else to say.”

She blasted the GOP candidates in the 2016 presidential race for failing to address student debt, equal pay for women and income inequality.

In a written statement to reporters, Clinton said the Republican debate continued the party’s “race to the bottom on women’s health and women’s rights” because “every single candidate on stage has pledged to defund Planned Parenthood if they become president.”

She added, “Repeating false statements doesn’t make them true, no matter how many times you do it.”

2016 presidential candidate Clinton took her demands a step further Thursday, calling on House Speaker John Boehner to not shut down the government over Planned Parenthood.

Hillary Tweets Spanish To Trump

Hillary Clinton hit a home run on Jimmy Fallon last night and pundits are saying “more, more, more”. In real time, Hillary was trolling the GOP debate on CNN last night.

When asked by CNN’s Dana Bash during Wednesday night’s GOP debate about his criticism of Jeb Bush for speaking Spanish on the campaign trail, Donald Trump responded:

“We have to have assimilation to have a country. We have to have assimilation. I’m not the first one to say this, Dana. We have had many people over the years for many, many years saying the same thing. This is a country where we speak English, not Spanish.”

Hillary Clinton tweeted in response to Trump’s comments — see photo —which translates: “Freedom includes the right to speak in any language. That makes us strong as a country, and it is something that we should celebrate—not denigrate.”

Media Drops Coverage of Ideas

Public Distrust in US Institutions Plummets

American Faith In Institutions — Including Newspapers & Television — Hits New Lows

A June 2015 Gallup survey of the confidence among Americans in our institutions has hit all-time lows. with Congress having the lowest approval rating of all at 8%. Only the US military and small business have ratings above their historical averages, with 72% and 67% confidence ratings.

It’s interesting to note the public’s historical lack of confidence in both newspapers and television news. with current ratings in the low 20s but historical averages in the low 30s. These long-term averages predate the digital age and one can only assume that confidence in the fairness and accuracy of news reporting is even lower among younger voters.

MSNBC Saves Money Running New Nightly Donald Trump Show

For two nights running, MSNBC has featured the Donald Trump show, a compendium of all matters Trump — true or not. Last night’s show promised a foreign policy speech aboard the USS Iowa, a 57,000-ton battleship in Los Angeles Harbor.

Instead we watched The Donald throwing free baseball caps into the crowd as the 2016 presidential candidate blasted immigration, trade and national security in advance of tonight’s CNN Republican party debate at the Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley. Read more about Trump’s speech at the LA Times.

MSNBC finds no time to use its broadcast license to talk policies among the candidates and especially Hillary Clinton. A candidate’s platform and concrete ideas are of no interest to MSNBC, who is obsessed with all things Trump and the Hillary Clinton email scandal.

Public rejects MSNBC’s shallow reporting on Hillary Clinton

Does the public just swallow MSNBC’s shallow, agenda-rich reporting of Hillary Clinton’s campaign? Increasingly not,reports #HillaryMen this morning. The three-month old website is a favorite of mine

We attribute the widespread sharing of #HillaryMen content to Hillary’s deep grassroots support. For example:
The Great American Brainwash: Half a Billion Dollars to Turn the Public against Hillary (18,000+ social shares in one month)
Time for the U.S. Media to Apologize to Hillary Clinton (7,000+ social shares in four days).
NEW: Report Proves Quinnipiac Hillary ‘Liar’ Poll Was False and Slanderous (7,500 social shares in 48 hours)
The 2016 race is just kicking into gear. Hillary has been under intense fire since the day she announced. She is the central target of nearly two dozen candidates. Shadowy conservative groups led by the likes of Karl Rove are spending hundreds of millions to smear her. Media coverage has been a disgrace, with reporters and pundits transparently manipulating the public against her. Sexism rears its ugly head daily.

Deeply committed to electing Hillary Clinton as the next president of the United States, Anne of Carversville has covered Clinton since 2009. Thoroughly disgusted with the media’s coverage of Hillary Clinton generally and MSNBC’s coverage specifically — making NO allowances for the New York Times’ false and biased reporting of the candidate — we have joined an army of well-intentioned, research-focused, honest bloggers and writers who are committed to Clinton and the communication of her platform for America. ~ Anne
