As Trump sinks in polls, mainstream media goes easy on Clinton, despite very serious issues raised by newly leaked emails….--quick survey shows that Washington Post has zero coverage, LA Times has one minor story, and NY Times buries its insignificant coverage; even Fox News seems to be treading lightly
--but from the very same cache of emails, The Intercept finds much more serious matters to expose:
--Glenn Greenwald details how Center for American Progress panders to Israel on Clinton’s behalf, with overt censorship of its bloggers’ coverage of Israel
--there’s more to the NY Times DeBlasio story--CAP president Neera Tanden pooh poohed $15 minimum wage, days after national fast food workers protest
--Greenwald also rejects the Rovian ploy to dismiss ALL emails by claiming that Russia leaked them and some are doctored
--a great example of HRC’s differing public/private positions is her view on taxing offshore corporate profits
--in Sunday’s debate, Clinton renewed support for a no-fly zone, while promising no American troops in Syria, but she had a different angle for Goldman Sachs
--movie mogul and major donor Harvey Weinstein urged the Clinton camp to silence Sanders on Black Lives Matter by using the “Sandy Hook issue” and gun laws
--David Sirota notes that Clinton makes noises in the US about limiting fracking, while promoting it overseas
