It doesn’t look that way, or appear that it will change any time soon. Reporters tagging along Hillary Rodham Clinton’s book tour noted Sunday in Westhampton, N.Y., that the former Secretary of State ignored questions about Ferguson, Mo., and the shooting of Michael Brown.
Two reporters shouted Hillary Clinton on Ferguson at the end of her Westhampton, NY event. She ignored both of them.

I asked Secretary Clinton for her reaction to the protests in #Ferguson as she left her book tour. She ignored the question.

Clinton is early to her book signing in Westhampton. No statement on Ferguson or ISIS. pic.twitter.com/I0qkLhMvUq

HRC ignores question about #Ferguson as she exits her West Hampton book signing.

@rubycramer Are there any stories on this yet? How many times has she avoided it?
— NICK DYER (@MrNickDyer) August 24, 2014
Why would she ignore? I don't get it. "@rubycramer: HRC ignores question about #Ferguson as she exits her West Hampton book signing.”

Hmm.
@rubycramer @AdamSerwer Seems like a free opportunity to shore up support on her left a bit. Instead, she comes off as brittle.

@rubycramer She still refuses to say that the signing of DOMA was wrong. I'm not holding my breath. Cc: @AdamSerwer

@ananavarro @rubycramer and she has absolutely no idea how deafening her silence is on #Ferguson. I WILL NOT FORGET HER SILENCE!

Reporters aren’t the only ones wanting to hear some sort of statement about Ferguson.

The only way Hillary is going to Ferguson is if it's a stop on her book tour.— BitchIsTheNewBlack (@MoChroi1965) August 24, 2014
