Optics: Hillary Clinton appears before cozy fireplace, but what's she burning?

Daily Beast political reporter Betsy Woodruff was watching Hillary Clinton on CNN this afternoon, and she could really feel the burn. The burn victim was reportedly Brian Fallon, press secretary for Hillary Clinton for America, who has been embarrassing himself this week by claiming that Intelligence Community Inspector General I. Charles McCullough III has been colluding with the GOP to leak damaging information to scuttle the Clinton campaign.

Woodruff also noted that Clinton had somehow convinced the camera crew to give her interview the soothing ambience of a fireside chat.
