Hillary just can't quit you, email lies (and some of these 'journalists' loved it!)

Hillary Clinton spoke today to African American and Hispanic journalists and took a few questions. The Democrat nominee was unwilling to let go of lies she’s repeatedly told about her emails:

Asked about 4-Pinocchios statement on FBI Director Comey and her emails, Hillary says she may have "short-circuited" https://t.co/bEd9iHERGR

Yep, “short circuited.” That’s how Clinton explains the lies she was caught telling:

Others noticed that Hillary’s remarks were occasionally interrupted by applause from the room full of “journalists”:

Seriously, reporters should not be applauding @HillaryClinton's answers. This is supposed to be a news conference, of sorts.

If the people asking the questions are clapping for you, no Hillary, it doesn't count as a "press conference."

Hillary: Comey said I was totally honest.
Media: Nope.
Hillary: No, really, he did.
Media: Nope.
Hillary: I promise.
Media: We believe you.

Not everybody there was a “journalist” — some were just Hillary fans — but it can be hard to tell the difference:

Just learned the #NABJNAHJ16 audience for #HillaryClinton includes non-journalists with "I'm With Her" signs
Do not assume they're media.

It’s actually very easy to assume somebody with an “I’m With Her” sign are national media. That’s the whole problem.
