Get a load of the latest from hacktastic CNN/ABC contributor Donna Brazile:
.@HillaryClinton wants you to read and see her emails without the partisan filters. Can the media handle this one without the usual bias?
— Donna Brazile (@donnabrazile) March 5, 2015
Wut????
Let’s deconstruct this tweet, shall we?
First of all, these aren’t all of her emails and Brazile knows this. These are emails Hillary’s staff selected and delivered to the State Department. Or, in other words, Brazile is applying her partisan filter to Hillary’s call to release the emails to spin it for Dems:
@donnabrazile @HillaryClinton Wait. I thought partisan buffers were OK when her aides were deciding which emails to turn over?

@donnabrazile @HillaryClinton that's really cool so long as independent and non-partisan official/s gets to go through and determine what

@donnabrazile Why not she turn the servers over to an unbiased source then like the FBI? They can determine if classified info was on them.

@donnabrazile @batchelorshow @HillaryClinton all her emails or just the hand picked ones?
— Brian Cartwright (@blcartwright) March 5, 2015
Brazile omits from her partisan take this pesky fact about Hillary’s scandal as well:
@donnabrazile @HillaryClinton But shouldn't this have happened already via previous FOIAs and investigations?

Exactly. The whole point of the rules governing emails is to make it easier for the media to cover our politicians! Hillary’s past actions with a private server and the delay this has caused in answering FOIA requests from the press is the problem that should anger Brazile.
And secondly, Brazile’s assertion that the media has some sort of conservative bias that’s unfair to Hillary is comical:
NYT, Politico, WaPo. Bastions of conservarism RT @donnabrazile: .@HillaryClinton wants you to see her emails without the partisan filters.

. @donnabrazile never thought it possible, but I'm actually embarrassed for you. You're losin' it, girl. @HillaryClinton

.@donnabrazile @HillaryClinton Nope. The media will keep up its bias by continuing to suck up to Hillary.

.@donnabrazile @HillaryClinton @ConservativeLA The left-leaning bias, you mean?
