Trump keeps claiming that the media is biased....well, I tend to agree with him. Only problem is he thinks the media is biased toward him, but it appears that NBC, supposedly what right-wingers call a left-wing TV station is complicit in spreading lies about Hillary. It's no wonder that Trump's poll numbers are not so far behind Hillary's....even the presumed left-wing media is helping the unqualified and ill-tempered narcissist.
Oh, did I mention that NBC is right-wing owned?
CNBC/MSNBC owned by NBC and Microsoft.....the same microsoft that donated 24 million to get GW Bush elected.
EXCLUSIVE: Glaring Inaccuracies in NBC's Hillary Clinton FBI Reporting
In the light of a highly critical and distorted segment covering the release of the FBI's Hillary Clinton investigation notes on Sunday's Meet the Press, NBC News and Chuck Todd must answer questions about glaring inaccuracies and potential anti-Clinton bias in their coverage.
When it comes to Democrat Hillary Clinton, the narrative is much more consistent. The media highlights her "trust deficit" with voters and views every action -- or lack thereof in the case of press conferences -- through a filter of this perpetual distrust.
In the case of Meet the Press, it appears that rule 3 has an addendum: "When no evidence of bad faith exists, facts will be distorted or fabricated in order to create such appearance." Todd presented MTP's "top takeaways" from the FBI report:
Distortion 1: "Clinton claimed she did not understand basic classification procedures."
This claim doesn't appear in the FBI documents. In neither the summary nor in the interview report does Clinton claim not to understand basic classification procedures.
On page 20 of the report, Clinton is asked about her knowledge of how to handle TOP SECRET, SECRET, or CONFIDENTIAL classification levels, she responds in a manner suggesting that she treats all levels with the same manner of diligence, rather than the statement of ignorance NBC makes it out to be.
Distortion 2: "She didn't recall any training on how to handle classified information."
CLINTON was aware she was an Original Classification Authority (OCA) at State. CLINTON could not recall
how often she used this authority or any specific training or guidance provided by State.
Distortion 3: "In fact, Clinton told the FBI that 'she could not recall or could not remember' key details more than three dozen times."
But in real fact, those "more than three dozen times" of Clinton being unable to recall what they called "key details" were largely made up of answers in the negative as to whether events or actions took place. Others were not recalling a specific day or instance while remembering the general point.
Distortion 4: "She even told the FBI that she thought that the 'C' on an email referred to the order of paragraphs instead of 'the word confidential,' which is the lowest level of classification."
Again, note the "even" in the accusation. I'm not an expert on the process of classification, but as The Daily Banter's Tommy Christopher pointed out in July, the emails in question were not properly marked and were also not properly classified, and the reasonable conclusion of someone who is an expert in classification is that those "(C)" markings were not related to classification.

(And there's a Distortion 5 and 6, too)
